The hotel is very well managed, perfectly located and very good value for the area. We had a large, well decorated and furnished corner room, the hotel has comfortable and attractive public rooms and the dinner in the full restaurant was excellent. I would definitely recommend this hotel and would stay there again without hesitation. more

Just come back from our 3rd stay at the trout. Once again, outstanding welcome, finest quality food, and thoroughly enjoyable stay. All at the most reasonable price we have come across.

We had lunches in the bar where there was a broad selection and portions were really generous... more

Had a particularly nasty wet night camping in Coniston the night before, so I thought I'd treat the wife to a nice room in the town where she was brought up. They upgraded us to a suite overlooking the river for the same price as an executive room (£109) and it was worth every penny. Massive room, bathroom was almost... more
