"Was a great little stay with a beautiful scenery and a lovely interior. With a cozy log burner for those cold nights, comfy bed, however struggled to find the property in the dark as google maps lied, so keep an eye out for a yellow sign for the shepherds hut on the way to the actual spring meadows on the map"

"Breakfast was very good. Staff were friendly and welcoming. Property is in need of some TLC, and could be an excellent venue. Gardens in need of de-weeding and some cutting back on trees, brambles etc."

We had a fabulous 2 night stay. Rooms are very clean, breakfast was amazing and the hosts were fantastic. Would definitely stay here again. Great location to drive to St Bees beach or into town.

The hotel was just at the end of some upgrades. The new bar looks amazing. I only stayed for 2 nights, but when the lady at breakfast found out I am lactose intolerant the next day there was everything I needed to enjoy my breakfast. Thank you

Really lovely B&B, very friendly and welcoming hosts.
The rooms are very comfortable with everything you could need. It was unfortunately raining and misty when we were there but the surroundings are lovely and the perfect place to enjoy a rainy afternoon!
Delicious food - would definitely recommend.

I received a very warm greetings g when I arrived and was shown to my room, the room was very clean with a view of the train station which was amazing. I had dietary requirements and they were very happy to help. I really enjoyed it and will definitely return

Stayed as a stop gap between Scafell Pike and The West Highlands. Good location, just out of a town, but quiet. Lovely rooms, great breakfast, very friendly, efficient staff. The only possible criticisms I could think of are that the rooms could have been more thoroughly cleaned, but we're of a good standard, and it would have been lovely to have an alternative to tea and coffee provided in the rooms (like a mint tea or similar), but these really are pinickity things. Very good hotel, wonderful...

Had a fab stay first time visit to the lakes with my family... Breakfast was delicious filled us up for the day... Quite village was gutted that hotel didn't have Sky TV hence missed the Aston villa game as most Local pubs would only allow children in till 9.00 pm... Would stay again... Was disappointed with the wifi as took our Amazon stick for kids to watch films but we had no internet connection

Had a fantastic stay at the Marymount hotel. My room 36 was a upgraded room new bathroom, massive king size bed. Very quiet and a fantastic view of the hills. Breakfast was really good loads of choices. And the food at night was good too. The staff a really nice. Shout out to Maria,Andy and Allana for making us feel so welcome.

Stayed in one of the cabins - compact but spotless, warm (in January!) and comfortable - only very slight problem was the heating control which is a tad over complicated but did not in any way detract from our stay....own transport essential...fantastic location...food great and a great, welcoming staff team.

From checking in to checking out we felt that our comfort was uppermost to the staff. The breakfast was excellent and we chose to have an evening meal which was well presented and tasted home cooked. The drinks were not overpriced and we didn't feel the need to leave the hotel in the evening. We had an excellent experience and will be returning again in the spring.
