I stayed with 3 others in the executive suite, which is situated right next door to the pub. Ideal location for outdoor activities as it sits just in front of 'the old man'. The cottage is definately 5* accomodation, luxary throughout (6 person hot tub, amazing shower etc). The pub is cosy, clean and everyone is extremely friendly. The food... More

We nipped into The Wilsons after taking my parents for a trip around the lakes, Have to admit my expectations were not high, but once we walked in I realized how wrong I was! The bar area was cosy and charming with an open fire, The 2 Huge Televisions in the bar area were a great idea, showing us slideshows... More

We then went back over Christmas with our friends (around 8 of us) and the service was just as fast and good even though they were busy, this is... More

We enjoyed a superb 5 course New Years Eve meal and drinks at Wilson Arms thanks to Mathew, Faye and their family and welcoming staff. The food was excellent, my favourite course being the main (fillet of beef) and I can't forget to mention the fantastic welcome and wonderful atmosphere in the pub too - best New Years Eve in...

Maybe my expectations were just too high? Having been recommended by a friend who's hotel we love, we couldn't wait to visit, only to find it was not in the same league, then we find out it had recently changed hands. We experience grovelling customer service which did not make up for dirty glasses or an hour long wait for... More

The evening started with canapes, followed by a further 4 courses with the highlights as usual being the monster fish, in the case dover sole. Prior to NYE... More

Called into this pub on afternoon of 5th Jan 2012 after hearing that the overall running was safely back in the hands of the Mavers family since November 2011. The cosy bar lounge has had a significant modern facelift but has lost none of its warmth and charm. The more recently added large dining tables have been removed from the... More
