“The genuine warmth of the staff is a real highlight, making even a brief stay feel welcoming, and the Cumbrian breakfast is certainly something to write home about. Its position, just steps from the town centre and harbour, is incredibly convenient, and the on-site dining options mean you needn't venture far for a satisfying meal.
