The Old Ginn House Restaurant Bar

As two couples, we stayed for one night. When we arrived, we were informed you could only check in at 3pm. We were planning to have food there, so it was fine. The food was so nice, served hot plenty of it. After checking in we were happy with our room (room 8). It was very clean warm. The bathroom was warm very clean too. Our friends were in another annexe (room 32) said there room was very clean but the bed was very rickety the lighting in the bathroom was very dull. The shower head also needed maintenance as it was very loose. The breakfast was really lovely, cereals, yoghurts, toast a choice of hot breakfast from the menu. We all had the Cumbrian breakfast which was lovely all local produce. The sausage bacon were lovely we were very full after it. I noticed on other reviews about the attitude of staff but even though the first member of staff we spoke to was quite abrupt to us in her defence she was run off her feet really helpful to us when we were trying to arrange a taxi. The girls serving breakfast were fine. Overall a fab stay would definitely recommend.

We thoroughly enjoyed our meal at The Old Ginn House. It was easy to find and park. The restaurant, although quite busy, was large and spacious. The staff were helpful, polite, efficient and cheerful. Food was excellent fresh, well presented and plentiful. Prices were good too. I look forward to returning when I'm next in the area.

Excellent dinner. Service was great and the half chicken ham pie was excellent with lovely chips, veg and gravy. My partner loved the steak and ale pie too. Would recommend and good value. We will return to eat here for sure!

Went to celebrate our anniversary and was a little disappointed especially after reading the reviews. No bar area to sit and have a cosy drink as was advised they were all restaurant tables, although she did say we could sit at one of the many empty tables till 6 when it was booked. When we had our evening meal I had to complain about my mine. I never complain but felt I had to as I couldn’t eat my pie it was dry and even burnt in one part. They were very gracious and gave me a free dessert though to compensate. The lady who seemed in charge wasn’t very welcoming at all, even when I commented how nice the wine was, there was no response or acknowledgment back. They were obviously training some younger staff and one in particular (blonde young lady) made up for the lack of service from her superior. She was lovely and we wanted to thank her but she’d left by the time we had chance. The breakfast was lovely apart from for the sausage. My husband couldn’t eat it as said it didn’t taste right. My croissants were warm which was a nice touch. Overall, we won’t be going back but after this review, they probably won’t want us to. Thank you again to the young blonde waitress. Keep up the great service.

Really nice hotel, lots of parking spaces, friendly reception staff, bar staff breakfast staff. Accommodated to our individual needs, let us check in early. Rooms very comfortable clean. Great facilities. Only criticism is the floor boards. I woke thinking someone was in my room but it was people walking along the hallway outside my room.. .. no harm done.. still a very restful night lovely stay. Keep up the good work guys!!
