The Old Dungeon Ghyll Hotel

I very much enjoyed my 2 night stay here. I booked the single room with the separate private bathroom. My room was very comfortable and the bathroom was right next door and was very spacious and clean. The location is fantastic with plenty of walking right from the door. The food in the pub was great after a long day walking and it was a nice atmosphere in the bar to sit and have a few well deserved drinks!

I appreciate the hotel needs to offset the booking costs so I didn't mind that the room cost me a bit more than booking directly but this felt excessive when I found out breakfasts are complementary when you book direct and not through this booking platform.

Staff were friendly. Breakfast was fine. The location is super amazing

More space in the bathroom would have been luxurious

The location and history are fantastic. The pub, the friendly walkers and locals. We love this place and visit once a year.

Tricky lock to use in the bathroom, got suck. Old hotel with its quirks..

The building has loads of character Its an affordable price. Breakfast was good. The location is perfect for the Cumbria Way

There's a serious lack of heating/ drying facilities. Came in from a long day on the Cumbrian Way soaked to the skin with torrential non stop rain. The room heaters only came on for an hour in the evening and an hour next morning and weren't very hot. The is a 'drying room' in the basement but it wasn't great either. Consequently I had to wear wet boots and clothes the following day (the previous night at a different hotel I had hung things on the radiator to dry which worked well because it was on!). Bathrooms are private but separate, not ensuite which was fine. The corridor was quite noisy/creaky with movement too and from bathrooms.
