10/10 Exceptional

Excellent dog friendly hotel. The hotel is next to a busy road so highly recommend booking a lakeside room which are much quieter, large and have a good view. Whilst the hotel is quite tired, for the price we paid and service we received, it represents good value. Meals in the bar well priced too.

10/10 Exceptional

I stayed at Inn on the Lake and had a really good experience. The hotel is in a beautiful location next to the lake, which makes it very peaceful and relaxing. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the staff were friendly and helpful throughout the stay. I really enjoyed the calm atmosphere and would definitely recommend it to other travellers looking for a quiet place to stay.

Love this hotel stay here often. There was an event on at the same time as our stay and the disruption was minimal. Just if you stay during a big event my advice is go to breakfast early

Really dog friendly. Great staff. Spacious rooms. Requested a quiet room as there was an event on the night we were staying and the staff allocated a room right away from the main area - really pleased that they helped us with that request.
