Room was on 4th floor with no lift. Bathroom had no seperate shower, bath had shower attachment but no hook on the wall so u had to hold it... More

Each spring we ensure we get away to somewhere in the UK as we still haven't seen all the wonderful places in Britain. This year we chose Ambleside in the Lakes and viewed all the comments on Churchill's Inn pre-booking. Most seemed favourable. However, as this review and those from March to May will testify, standards may have slipped. The... More

If you see a good review about the staff at this hotel (pub with rooms) if will probably be from their friends. The staff are all young lads with plenty of attitude and no customer relations skills. Surly, scruffy, unfriendly, Good points. Room clean and bedding fresh, room is what you expect for 3 star stay. Breakfast was basic but... More

OK, let's start by saying it is a cheap place to stay, which is a definate plus, the room was lovely, clean, well appointed for the price, good bathroom. It was on the fourth floor and there isn't a lift! What would have made this a far more positive review is the attitude and conduct of the staff, some of... More

Starting with good points... We paid extra for a superior room (room 21), the room was spacious with a lovely view, a king size bed, and a lovely large bathroom with separate large shower cubicle. The housekeeping couldn't be faulted... spotless room, with clean towels on a daily basis. Having said that, the heating couldn't be controlled from the room... More
