I had a pleasant stay at the hotel right in the center of Appleby. The rooms were spacious and had all the necessary facilities, including a modern renovated bathroom with spare single bed at no extra charge. The service was exceptional, offering convenient room service and assistance with tours. The location was ideal, with onsite parking to the rear and being in the heart of Appleby. Although the dining experience featured natural products, it was a bit limited. Overall, a great value for money stay.
