What a lovely place to stay- friendly welcome to a very comfortable room. The meal was more expensive than I would normally pay, but it was a very special experience. Maybe a slightly cheaper option on the menu would be welcome, but I would still strongly recommend.

This was a stop over from travelling down from Scotland. Easy to find from the motorway. Room was clean and comfortable. Staff very polite and accommodating. Decided to have an evening meal which was first class, well presented and my steak was cooked perfectly. Couldn't really fault it. Stayed in room 4 which is directly over the restaurant dining area which was ok if a little noisy however comfy bed soon had us both asleep. Morning breakfast was good and tasty so no issues there. Would most definitely stay there again. Cost for us was £70 for the night including the breakfast so very good value for money. Recommend getting up a bit earlier for a walk just down the road along the river. No phone signal was a bonus but did have wifi.

Lovely stay in Pooley Bridge
We had a fantastic stay, welcoming from the start. Our room was lovely and clean, comfy bars and a great nights sleep. We had the 3 course dinner in beautifully designed surroundings. The food was super stylish and delicious, very beautifully presented. The beef tartare was amazing as was the artichoke soup.
Friendly staff and delicious breakfast too. Will definitely be coming back. Pooley bridge has a lot to offer. Thanks

Seated here for one night. The room was lovely, very comfortable and tastefully decorated. Only thing I could say negative was that it was quite cool temperature wise and I slept in my dressing gown. Could have done with another radiator in that room. Staff were amazing, really helpful. Food was absolutely outstanding, and the breakfast was one of the best i have had. Cleanliness was second to none. Everywhere was spotless. You cant go wrong if you stay here, you will get a wonderful experience.

The staff are obviously committed to what they do. This is not merely a job but a career! The food is exquisite and the presentation is picture perfect. Everyone was very accommodating, friendly and mindful of needs. It would have been great if there had been literature in the room for those interested in doing walks from and in the area.
