Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is ideally located in the heart of the charming town of Kirby Lonsdale, offering great views and gorgeous L'Occitane toiletries in the rooms. However, the cleanliness fell short with dusty bedside tables and overly soft pillows affecting my sleep quality.
I had a great stay at this hotel! The room was lovely with a quality bathroom and beautiful beamed ceiling. The service was outstanding, and the location in the centre of the charming town of Kirby Lonsdale was perfect. The dining experience was fantastic with brilliant food options. The facilities were top-notch, making my stay very enjoyable.
