Cumbria Grand Hotel in South Lakeland

I stayed at this hotel before winter. It was converted from a mansion into a hotel. Everything is very nostalgic. The carpets and decoration are very old-style. The room is opened with a key. The room is very standard, and the hot water for bathing is sufficient. There are The scenery is beautiful and there is a long beach. Before dinner, we went to the beach to watch the sunset. The natural scenery is really spectacular. You can enjoy the scenery along the pedestrian corridor and enjoy the sea breeze. There is a train station, paid restrooms, and you can go back to the hotel for dinner after arriving in the city center. The main meal is available You can choose beef, fish or pork. You can choose from 5 types of side dishes. They are quite rich and the food is also very good. I am very satisfied. However, this hotel lacks recreational facilities, but it is good for those who want to enjoy a peaceful vacation.

Rooms were dated but dont mind that myself. Staff were excellent even made us a packed lunch each day as we were leaving for work before breakfast started. Had food in the bar area which was delicious had the salt and pepper halloumi starter both nights as it was 10/10

Rooms very shabby, torn, dirty curtains. Bathroom mat mouldy. Carpets dirty. Myself and a friend paid extra for single rooms. Also lights not working in one of the rooms. Food was reasonable but the dining room was run like a boarding school dining room. We had to share with complete strangers, no tables for two! All in all very disappointing. None of the problems reported were dealt with. We would not return. There is lack of investment here.

The staff are amazing and the suites are great. Dog friendly. No in-suite fridges. Great mid-point for visiting Cumbria and the Yorkshire Dales in one long weekend. Would definitely stay again.

This was our second visit to this hotel. The staff are friendly and efficient and it is spotlessly clean. We had a bar meal on Saturday and the food was excellent. The breakfast was also very nice.

Lovely, older hotel in beautiful grounds. Some updating needed in places buy I think this is ongoing. Staff friendly, service and food good. Would return.

We loved it, we were transported to another era. The hotel is a little in its original state but that's what gives it its charm. The dinner was delicious and the staff welcoming. The place is magnificent and I recommend the evening stroll to the pretty little station.

Beautiful hotel, spotlessly clean and breakfast plentiful. Would recommend this hotel.

Beautiful grounds, excellent food and lovely views over Morecambe Bay

We enjoyed our coach holiday very much. The hotel was perfect for our needs. I personally enjoyed the history to the hotel and reading up on it in their brochure.

Went here for afternoon tea in a party of 4 and the food was gorgeous. Lovely location and charming, polite attentive service.

Positives Gret history, love the external look and style, drive up to the hotel was lovely and plenty of parking space. Breakfast had your typical options and tasted great. Staff were helpful and tended to every need. Negatives Inside looked dated and gave the feeling of disrepair. The look reminded me of seaside hotels in the 90's. If you don't mind that feel then this would be a great option. My room had no usb charging ports so make sure to take your power plugs with you. Another annoying issue was the peacock on the grounds. It would squak at night and early hours of the morning and made it very hard to sleep but also disturbed sleep. Overall my experience was Ok/acceptable, would I stay here again? No

Lovely hotel, only stopped for lunch whilst on a coach trip, staff mostly helpful and cheerful. Meal was lovely, beautiful grounds

If you enjoy old architecture and building with history and presence then this is one to add to your list. The building and grounds are stunning. Breakfast was excellent, staff were all professional, pleasant, smiling and willing to help with questions/requests. Note this is a very big building and a little run down in places, I have no doubt that for some this would be something to complain about. So, it you want completely polished perfect decor, stay elsewhere. If you want character, atmosphere and magnificence, stay here. We loved it and will stay again.

It was a lovely place but a bit rough around the edges but it was a very old building The staff were really nice
