This is a lovely hotel. Food was first class, and service was excellent. Special mention to Poppy who did a great job of looking after us.

Stopped for an impromptu lunch and so glad we did. Our table was outside overlooking the beautiful garden and sea. Service was excellent (they even brought water and biscuits for our dogs!). Food was delicious. Will definitely return.

Stopped here on our walk through the town of Grange and Gardens for a nice refreshing cup of tea, which came with a nice shortbread biscuit. Big pot of tea & extra hot water if needed. We sat outside overlooking the beautiful garden and views of the sea and Bay. We enjoyed it very much. a lovely hotel.

Dropped in for lunch. Wonderful relaxed atmosphere, nice food. If you like your sandwich with a huge pot of tea in front of a roaring fire then look no further!

Just an excellent place to stop for coffee and cake. No rush, no hassle. Free to sit and watch the world go by.

My partner and I had an evening meal to celebrate his birthday. The staff were friendly and welcoming, and the food was delicious. We couldn't fault it. The rib eye steak was full of flavour, and cooked to perfection. Our starters and desserts were also faultless. The service was perfect, as we were given enough time between courses to be ready for the next! All in all, an excellent meal, with great service. Highly recommended.

Hidden gem of a restaurant/ hotel offers choice of good food and drink. Friendly, polite and resourceful staff, lovely peaceful setting with more than a nod to an era when taking time to appreciate life was a positive.

Stayed for 4 nights. We have stayed here previously. Wonderful food a lovely welcome and most importantly at the present moment we felt safe. The tables are well spaced and all staff follow Covid regulations. This is a little gem the views are wonderful from the hotel and it is perfectly placed for exploring the area. I almost don't want to give this a good review as selfishly I don't want too many people to find out about it. If you want a relaxing break with excellent food and good service with easy access to the Lakes this is your place.

Currently closed due to the pandemic, but offering outdoor lunches and afternoon teas. Arriving at 4.00, we had missed all but the orange cake, which was just about the best ever, chock full of flavour and as moist as could be. Worth a journey just for that.
