We stayed here for one night as a last minute weekend away - we arrived at the hotel and were made…read moreto feel like we had caused a huge inconvenience by booking only the day before and by arriving just after check in time. The room itself was pretty grim - the lock fell off the bathroom door, the windows would not stay closed, meaning we were kept awake by the nightclubs across the road, and the decor was generally pretty shabby. Cigarette wrappers lying on the stairs when we arrived were still there the next morning. There were piles of laundry lying around in the halls also. On the plus side, the location is great for getting around town, and free parking is available for guests. The breakfast service was truly abysmal. The waiting staff spoke little English and were highly disorganised, had to ask several times for the same thing and in the end, wound up going and foraging for it myself - a pot of tea should not be that difficult to produce! Definitely not value for money. Our room cost £85 for one night, and frankly, I felt well and truly ripped off. I would not recommend this to anyone.

The owners were very helpful is so many ways as we started our hike. Like, did you know that on Sundays there is very little open in the way of restaurants in Carlisle? But the people here know which ones are and filled us in. A total life saver at the end of 15 miles. Room was roomy and overlook the street but very bright and light. Bed was great and plenty of space to store things, if you are into that. Breakfast was pretty standard and packed lunches were very nice. I would come back and stay here to explore the rest of the area.

A really nice hotel just over the border in Gretna, Scotland. We had our wedding there last month &…read morewere very pleased with the venue. Everything went very smoothly, as these people do weddings day in and day out! We opted for a package deal to cut down on planning hassle. It worked out very well - the hotel took care of all the details for us and made sure everything went smoothly. The gardens of the hotel are TO DIE FOR and absolutely gorgeous. Going up to Scotland to get married here was worth it just to have our pictures (and ceremony!) conducted outdoors in the beautiful hotel gardens. They are small but colourful and well-presented. I love the natural look, so it was just perfect. The food at our reception was equally delicious and first-rate. I had the best tomato soup I've ever had for our starter, and the portion of lamb was GIGANTIC - made it hard not to pop the seams of my wedding dress!! The only thing stopping this hotel from getting a 5 rating is some of the staff. No one was ever UNfriendly, but they could definitely work on being more forthcoming with information and more pleasant at the reception. Whenever I asked questions, the receptionist (not the same one either - all of them except one) always had the attitude that I was inconveniencing her greatly. Also, the rooms are a BIT outdated (though perfect comfortable with all mod cons - I just mean the decor) and the advertised spa bath was just a tiny bathtub with jets! However, there is a lovely pool & spa for guest use - 25m pool, large jacuzzi, steam room and sauna - very nice.

I have yet to have a disappointing meal there and the dessert trolley is a highlight. The only downside is choosing what to have as it is all just so delicious. It is also a great place for afternoon tea.

Mildew in the shower, chipped bath, broken sink and filthy curtains. The external repair to the windows is woeful. Such a shame, but I suspect this hotel group may have other priorities. I'd suggest viewing the room before you check-in. It's certainly not worth the room rate for the standard of repair. Avoid the first floor at all costs,

My wife and I stumbled onto the Golden Fleece Inn after a day touring sites along Hadrian's Wall…read more We had stopped at many other Inns and B&Bs along the way, but had found them all booked. We were very happy that the Golden Fleece still had a room. Our happiness turned to joy when we saw the lovely room. Light and airy, with a great view and huge bathroom. We were even more pleased when we went down to dinner! British cuisine has soared in the last few decades, even in out of the way Inns. The menu was varied and everything we had was exceptionally good. The wine list was small but complete. We chose a bottle of excellent Latour Pinot Noir. We were treated to a delicious starter of lamb sausage in a mustard glaze and hummus. My wife ordered a cheese soufle as well. We were impressed by the quality and subtle tastes. You couldn't get better anywhere. For our mains, I had the roast lamb and my wife had a fillet of hake with spring potatoes. Both were delicious. After dinner, we moved out to the cozy bar lounge to read and finish our wine, then I capped the evening with a dessert called "poor knight's pudding". Made using a croissant and vanilla custard, served a la mode. Lovely room, great restaurant, friendly staff. Couldn't ask formore!
