8/10 Good
"We had a lodge that was half way around the lake. There was a parking space right outside and the lodge had a clear view of the lake The kitchen & shower room seemed to be new. It was very clean and had a separate 2nd WC aswell as the main shower room. There are childrens play facillities on site aswell as a bar and restaurant. I felt the bar & restaurant could do with a facelift, but it might be in the pipeline as there are some renovations being done according to a sign at reception. Pine Lake is well placed for visiting a lot of places in the area and I would definitely come here again."

"Really easy to find, you have masses of parking available to you, and the bed was really comfy. The lake view is a huge bonus too - it was gorgeous to wake up to and not what you normally get view wise for a budget motorway services hotel haha. Nice hot shower, clean bedding and towels, and everything worked and functioned as expected. Would definitely stay again"

Grassington Lodge

Grassington Lodge

8/10 Good
"It’s difficult, because I can understand the wide range of reviews. The fact that there are no staff on site, coupled with an unusual door access system, makes thinking of this as a hotel (never mind the star rating) somewhat of a stretch. Having said that, a mobile number was provided if needed. Our room was clean (although somewhat dated) and had all the equipment we expected. One big issue that we only subsequently learned about was that some of the rooms did not have an en suite. Ours did (with a much-appreciated heated towel rail), but I would have been very annoyed if we had been allocated a room without. Make sure of your room number! The location is excellent. Parking is available, but limited, so don’t be the last to arrive. All in all, we enjoyed our stay and felt we had good value for money."

"When I arrived there was a complete muddle with my booking. My room had been assigned to someone else!! They said I was not listed as a guest and had I actually booked at another hotel. It turned out that my name was on the list but had been crossed off, when, what should have been my room was assigned to someone called Ross. I was kept standing around in reception while this mess was sorted out. I had just driven up from Liverpool and I was not impressed by any of this. Apart from this initial foul up the hotel was a very pleasant place to stay and I had a lovely breakfast on the Saturday morning before I left. This hotel is really convenient for access to Carnforth Station from which I travelled on an excursion to Whitby."
