イギリスカンブリアで、バーのあるホテル

Booked in for 1 night to have a rest in some luxurious surroundings after a lot of travelling around the country visiting friends. Hunday Manor is a beautiful old house in a fantastic spot on the side of a hill with a great view. The hotel is very well appointed and the rooms are well looked after. The quality of the food for both an evening meal and the cooked-to-order breakfast was excellent. Perhaps the only facility I would add is a few overnight EV charge points in the car park. The service however was rather comical, starting with check-in. After confirming my name, 1 night stay, and printing out the reservation sheet, somehow the chap on reception muddled up my solo reservation with a couple arriving on the same day who were staying for a couple of weeks and gave me their room. After settling in for a much needed afternoon nap in the very comfortable bed and 'locking' the door on the inside, the rather startled couple walked in having been given a card for the same room. From that point on I never really managed to relax. I offered to move room when I went down for dinner later on, but the chap declined and mumbled something odd about the length of stay and seemed to point at the paperwork suggesting I had signed it making it my mistake! Sigh. Things didn't get a lot better in the restaurant. Myself and another solo traveller were given tables at the back (by the same chap), seemingly to keep us out the way of the couples who arrived later and were seated at the windows. When either of us asked questions about the menu there was lack of understanding about the dishes.. I was then asked around half a dozen times by multiple staff if everything was ok. Meanwhile I could hear one of the couples quitely chatting about their room, no doubt the room I was in. Upon trying to put the bill on my room, the same chap from earlier left me at the bar with a card machine asking whether I wanted to add a tip. At breakfast the next morning it continued. When I arrived the first breakfast room was full of tables needing clearing so I was given a table in the same area where I had dinner. This time given a table at the window but right in front of the only other guest, a lady already eating her breakfast. My table wasn't set so inexplicably the waiter clumsily took a second place-setting from her table while she was midway through eating! After dusting a few crumbs from one of the plates I enjoyed my breakfast. Towards the end of eating the staff were discussing how to rearrange the room for an event later in the day and started moving things around. After hearing the same couple from dinner asking to be told when their room was made available, cleaners were hanging around at the bottom of the stairs when I returned to the room. Nothing like a bit of a hurry up to finish breakfast and get out of your room to make you feel like a valued guest. Upon check-out an apology and a chat but by then the damage was done. No offer to comp a drink (or dinne)r after making a mess of things either. It's a lovely hotel that could offer a real 5-star experience, but the service ended up more like an episode of Fawlty Towers and needs a bit of a rethink. Next stop China.

部屋の全体的な位置は良く、ウィンダミア湖に非常に近いですが、入り口の急な坂を登るのが少し難しいです。ここで599番のバスに乗りましたが、スーツケースを持って坂を登るのに疲れました。 私たちが到着したとき、フロントデスクのスタッフはとても熱心で、さまざまな施設を紹介してくれました。私たちはそこに行ってすぐに素晴らしい時間を過ごしました。サービスはとても良かったです。 私たちが予約したファミリールームは、典型的な英国風の窓と小さな天窓があり、赤ちゃん専用の小さな部屋もありました。全体的にとても満足しました。とはいえ、公式ウェブサイトに掲載されているファミリールームの写真はあまりにも醜く、窓が一つも見えていなかったので、通気性が悪いのではないかと心配していたことも付け加えておきます。 朝食はまだ十分に満足で、言うことはありません。小さな中庭は素晴らしく、リラックスした休暇に最適です。 将来機会があれば、またここに住むことを選択し、友人にも勧めたいと思います。

Amazing hotel, great location. My room lock broke and they moved me to a new room straight away. Were so friendly and helpful. Highly recommend and will be going back.

I have grave misgivings about hotels in the busiest parts of the Lake District, especially at holiday times. Obviously they will be relentlessly overcrowded, with harassed and unfriendly staff. I’ve wanted to go back to the Proper Lake District for a while though so took a risk on the King’s Head. It’s easy to find on the ear popping main road up from Grasmere, just beyond the impressive hulk of Steel Fell, close to Thirlemere. Parking anywhere in the Lakes is hideous and expensive. Not here. Relaxed and plenty of room. It’s a long building with a pleasant bar restaurant area and beer garden. I found a rather pleasant residents lounge where a lady called Jo checked me in and made me feel welcome. It does get busy with passing trade but the staff look after their residents. They flogged me decent real ale and Jura whisky (the proper stuff). Breakfast is briskly table served from a menu and is well presented. I didn’t eat otherwise there but the food is popular and well priced. The road outside is busy and a bit of a racetrack, and the occasional fighter jet roars between the mountains on low altitude practice, but the relentless bleating of the sheep opposite soon returns things to normal. I was a little sorry to depart, but the manager said he hoped I would come again. I believe I will, and will even bring my wife.

ホテルは駅からとても近く、スーツケースがたくさんあった私たちにとっては、ここを選んだのは賢明な判断でした。 ここは古い建物を改装したゲストハウスで、エレベーターがないので、荷物は自分で階段を上らなければなりません。部屋は広く、とても清潔です。 一番のおすすめはアラカルトの朝食です。とても美味しいです。夕食は予約が必要です。今回はうっかり予約をしなかったので、食べ損ねてしまいました。もしここに泊まるなら、絶対に予約してください！予約！予約！これは本当に重要です。

We booked the Superior Double Room and I felt it was well worth the extra for the gorgeous view we had from 2 large windows - whether the skies were sunny or cloudy. The location was excellent - within 5 to 10mins walk to the town and to Derwent Water and parking was well explained and ample. On entering Fellpack House, it was pleasant, well cared for and inviting. Our room on the top floor (stairs all the way up) was straight out of a home & decor magazine. The amenities, furnishing, towels and beverages were quality stuff and we saw that they also used locally sourced soaps and beverages. Housekeeping was daily and I loved that the gave us delicious chewy chocolate chip cookies each day! The breakfast was fresh & flavourful. That they started off as a restaurant (that operates across the road and is highly rated) carries through in their breakfast - I ate so much and it was worth every calorie! Best of all were the staff. We met many over the course of our stay and every one of them were warm, chatty, highly customer-oriented and witty! Can you tell how much I loved our stay there 😀

湖水地方のウィンダミア湖にあるボウネスという小さな町では、ホテルから湖畔の桟橋まで下り坂があり、景色も美しく、ボートに乗ることができます。元旦の休暇に間に合うように、宿泊施設はまだ少し逼迫しています。ここの朝食は素晴らしく、賞を受賞しています。駐車場は簡単かつ無料で、家のすぐ外にあります。スイートの外には庭園があり、夏には庭に座って過ごすのがとても快適です。

2つの部屋タイプを予約しました。四柱式スイートはまあまあでした。部屋は広く、ダブルルームもありました。最初に案内された部屋タイプはシングルルームかもしれません。2回のコミュニケーションの後、最終的に部屋を変更しました部屋に入るのに防火扉を通らなければならず、階段を上らなければならないのは不便でした、家は古すぎ、エレベーターもアンティークです。

湖のエリアには多くの美しいホームステイがあり、このホテルもそのうちの1つです。部屋には綿棒と綿片、宝石ガラスボックスもあります～朝食は前日に注文されます。ホテルのオーナーは個人的に料理をします。絶妙で豊かな～ 唯一の欠点は、私たちが泊まった2日間は少し暑かったこと、エアコンがなかったこと、そしておそらくファンがあったことですが、私たちはそれを見つけませんでした...

I highly recommend this hostel, it’s a last-minute booking, but it turned out such a nice stay. The hostel is just by the lake, with misty view right outside of the window in the morning. Close to bus station, transportation convenient. What’s more, my roommates are amazing, three girls from London, one from the US.
