“A warm welcome”

Reviewed June 16, 2013 NEW

My disabled husband and I stopped here overnight on a trip to Scotland and found a very comfortable welcoming place. Accommodation on the ground floor of the Coach House was excellent - large room with comfortable seats as well as beds and a good bathroom. Sadly shower was over the bath so he had to make do with a wash.... More

“A lovely hotel with friendly and helpful staff”

Reviewed June 7, 2013

My husband and I spent 3 nights in this hotel and it was wonderful. The bedrooms were spacious as was the bathroom. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff. The hotel had a fantastic garden and it was lovely to sit in it when we had returned from our trips out with a cup of tea or coffee. We... More

“Fantastic experience”

Reviewed June 4, 2013

We had a two night stay here. We were greeted with a warm welcome and very good tea and biscuits. Our room was large and comfortable. The food in the restaurant was of a very high standard - so good we ate there both nights. The wine list was terrific too. All in all this hotel is a gem and... More

“Excellent overnight stay”

Reviewed June 2, 2013

We were travelling up to Scotland and stayed overnight, dining in the restaurant. This hotel is wonderful. Warm welcome, very friendly and professional staff, clean and comfortable room. The food lived up to its 2 rosettes. Breakfast was also a pleasure with lots of choice. We were sorry to leave the next morning (especially as ducklings had hatched overnight in... More

“Family Gathering”

Reviewed June 1, 2013

Our families all met at the T S H for a special lunch. We were able to meet in the front room have coffee and wait for us all (14) to arrive. We had canapés and a welcome fizz drink. Our three course meal was just as we had arranged previously and was served in the large summer room overlooking... More

“A real find”

Reviewed May 26, 2013

We only stayed one night on our way home from Scotland. We found the owners and staff very pleasant. The room was clean and comfortable and there was free wifi. Dinner was excellent and we enjoyed the canapés which were brought to us while our meal was cooking. The dining room overlooks a pretty walled garden complete with a duck... More

Many thanks for your comments and we're happy you enjoyed your stay, although sad news on the ducklings I'm afraid! Two have fallen by the wayside, so we're down to nine. They're always vulnerable in the first week or two but, hopefully, these nine will all survive. Like us on facebook or register for newsletters on our website to be... More

“Do Not Waste Your Money”

Reviewed May 24, 2013

On arrival at the Temple Sowerby Hotel. We asked Julie about booking a table for two that night. We were told that the dining room was fully booked that evening yet only 5 tables were laid out with cutlery and yet there were supposed to be two sittings. We enquired about other eateries in the area and more specifically about... More

Well, honestly, this diatribe is barely worth responding to!! We occasionally have guests staying whose manner is such that if one rearranged the words 'pratt' and 'utter' into an expression will give you an idea! That old cliche of people knowing the price of everything and the value of nothing comes to mind. If one doesn't know how to behave... More

“Great reviews, pity we couldn't stay...”

Reviewed May 21, 2013

Firstly I want to make it clear this is not a review as such-we never got as far as booking a room as the phone was put down on me! I wanted to book a room with our well travelled dog. As soon as this was mentioned I was "instructed" that our dog was welcome (?) but had to stay... More

Well, this really does take the dog biscuit! We can often see the funny side of these reviews but I consider this a most extraordinarily vindictive and malicious one. Perhaps this very distasteful person would like to contact me again to apologise, this time having the courage and courtesy to leave his name! I do remember this call as I... More

Bit late writing this review, but better late than never. It deserves a great review as we had a wonderful 2 night break here at the beginning of April. On arrival we were warmly greeted by Julie who showed us to our room and explained everything to us regarding times of evening meal/breakfast etc. Our room was situated in the... More

“Cumbria's Best Kept Secret..!”

Reviewed May 8, 2013

Cumbria’s Best kept secret! Ignore every single one of the negative reviews – they should have stayed at a Travelodge…The Temple Sowerby House Hotel surpasses, by a mile, the descriptions that the owners, Julie and Paul Evans, modestly make on their website. We are a group of, somewhat, discerning (we like to think) lady friends of various ages who were... More

Wow, a veritable essay! Greetings to all you 'flappers', we're so pleased you enjoyed your weekend here at TSH. It was a pleasure to look after you all and the wine theme was certainly a great idea! Your comments are very much appreciated and we've passed them on to all the staff - it really does make a difference when... More
