Just returned from a long weekend at the stag, overall a value for money hotel. Don't come here expecting the hilton, but do expect a warm friendly atmosphere offering a hearty breakfast and a well stocked bar !!!!!!!!!!! I reccomend the hawkshead ale !!!!!! By the way there's a nightclub downstairs so a night.... well read the title..........!!!! more

After driving 150 miles to the Lake District we arrived at our hotel to find no one on the check in desk, no parking and as it was Friday no food available. We were directed to a local long stay car park which was full so we had to drive around for about another half hour looking for a car... more

We recently stayed at this hotel. The carpets are worn as is the decor. There is a slight musty smell which could be old tobacco. Checking in was not as easy as it could have been as there was no one at the check-in 'desk. The hotel isn't run by a legion of people so it seems a lot of... more

Stayed for one night. Room was adequate but tired looking.Bed mattress was very worn and uncomfortable.Some staff were sarcastic and overstepped the mark with personal comments about visitors.They say parking is available but not to all residents otherwise you pay £9 a day in the long stay. Entrance stank off cigerettes and was damp smelling.Could be a nice place if... more

ROOMS - what can I say, basically dirty. Toilet bowl had not been recently cleaned from previous use! Bathroom floor not been mopped. Carpet not recently hoovered - skirting boards full of dust. It is just somewhere to drop when you have been out having a few drinks and not really bothered about your surroundings. The toilet in the bar... more

Awful!

Stayed here 3 years ago and it was ok so came back for another weekend, what a shocker! The first room we got was filthy and smelt badly of damp, there were hairs in the bathroom from the previous guests and the bathroom floor looked like it had never seen a mop in the tens of years it had been... more

As an 18 year old student myself and my friend found it difficult to be even be allowed to book many hotels and accommodation. Then I came across the Stags Head website which welcomed me with open arms. At first i was skeptical at check in as all the paperwork seemed to revolve round the bar area. we were given... more

I had the misfortune to be booked into this "hotel" by a client of mine. I endured two nights of misery in this dirty smelly exuce for a hotel. I've stayed in hotesl all over the world from Bristol to Bolivia but have never encountered staff as ignorant as the ones at this place. Checking in felt like I was... more

We have just had the unfortunate pleasure of spending a night in this so called hotel, having looked at its internet site, we booked direct with the hotel and paid a deposit over the phone, on arrival at the hotel we were told we had to pay the full amount up front before we got our key, the reason for... more
