Hi Joyce,I am sorry to hear you did not find the bed very comfortable, down to personal preference over the comfort of the mattress but I do hope you enjoyed your stay regardless. It was a pleasure to meet you and I do hope you'll come and stay with us again if you're ever in Carlisle,Kind Regards,Fern - Front Office Manager

Hi Aileen,Thank you so much for leaving us a review about your experience. We have not had the restaurant in use since before covid 19 and after doing an extensive amount of market research and we listened to the majority. I apologise however that this was not mentioned to you on check in. I hope aside from this you had a great stay with us and we would love to see you come back some time,Kind Regards,Fern - Front Office Manager

Good but a bit dated and no dinner
The room was comfortable and clean, if a bit dated (mainly the bathroom) and on the cold side. Staff were lovely and breakfast was great but was very disappointed to learn that dinner wasn't available, despite it being advertised on the website. Had to go out in the freezing dark to forage for food :). Would stay again for short stays.

Hi,Thanks so much for the great feedback. Apologies that you were misled about dinner service, I have passed this along to our media team to amend and can only apologise for the inconvenience.

Big room and comfy bed, but smelled of smoke
The checkin was easy, the room was big, but people had clearly been smoking in the bathroom. The window didn't open and there was no extractor fan so it smelled very strongly. Given the smell, it felt like the room hadn't been cleaned very well, as presumably a cleaner would have at least sprayed air freshener.
