Downstairs in the pub and restaurant i cannot fault it, the place is well maintained and clean. The bar is well stocked however it was very busy with only one staff working. Food was excellent and a great variety of choice. Breakfast was limited but the full English was brilliant. Upstairs really needs a refurbishment, the rooms are dated and tired, having said that it was clean and water/ coffee refreshed each morning.
A nice clean room, easy check in/out. Good Sunday roast & lovely choice/quality at breakfast time. Really helpful staff member (Lee I think) who gave us some useful recommendations for the next part of our holiday in Keswick.
Great family room, dog friendly, huge breakfasts, tasty evening food. Only two minor things, when inn is full breakfast service was quite slow and the evening food was a bit pricey, but very tasty and good portions. It was a great stay and a lovely place to go walking from
We had a lovely stay here for two night, room was lovely and warm.
Very dog friendly, breakfast was lush, over all lovely little pub and b&b..
We will definitely stay here again.
Many thank to all staff.
If you are looking to stay here, just do it. You won't regret it.. it just lovely.
The room was spacious, clean and very comfortable soft bed and pillows. Large en suite with fluffy towels. The pub and restaurant are well appointed and serve delicious meals

The bed and pillows were soft and comfortable. There wasn't much noise during the night, although the old building's wooden floors sometimes made creaking noises. You could occasionally hear others moving around.
The Bridge Inn at Holmrook. Our room was really comfortable, warm and spotlessly clean and well maintained. The whole of the Bridge Inn is dog friendly and welcoming to our pair of 4paws. The breakfast was brilliant. There's a really good selection to choose from and everything was cooked to perfection.
We ate at the Bridge Inn every night because the food was excellent. The last time we ate food that good was when we ate at James Martin's restaurant. The menu had just the right amount of dishes to choose from and the helpings were spot on. We never met the chef but s/he gets 10/10. Last, but certainly not least the staff, everyone was welcoming and friendly. There is however one member of staff we would like to mention in particular. Unfortunately we didn't catch her name but she was wonderful. She was there first thing in the morning and last thing at night and always had a wonderful smile on her face and an eagerness to help wether on reception, behind the bar or serving meals. We would recommend a stay at the Bridge Inn to everyone. Well done to every member of staff there and thank you for making our stay so memorable. Thank you all.
Lovely room, great price, nice beer, fabulous breakfast and very friendly staff. I'm definitely coming back here!

Due to weather we had arrived late and missed the last orders for food. Went out of their way to direct us to nearest takeaway and even on return allowed us to eat in the bar area and even let us have some plates :) thanks so much for making us feel so welcome x
