翰迪西爾飯店(Hundith Hill Hotel)

DON'T GO TO THE LAKE DISTRICT without staying at the Hundith Hill Hotel. Superb room (room 27), huge with walk-in shower, balcony and magnificent views. The food was excellent, great choice and coffee on the balcony in the evening. 2nd time we have stayed at HHH, can't wait to go back - oh! and the staff could not do enough for us. Grand.

We stayed at the hotel as we were attending an event. Unfortunately we had no hot water from our shower. A hot shower when you’re trying to get ready to go out is not ideal at all. I thought it was because everyone was getting ready at the same time, but we still had non the next morning. The hotel itself is very very dated. It needs a huge revamp. On the bright side the food was lovely.

The Hotel appears to hold events at weekends. Clearly it is advertising itself as wedding venue but also, while I was there, it held parties on the Friday and Saturday night - with consequent loud noise until well after midnight. The room I stayed in is in a new, small complex, separate from the main hotel. The main issue is the room temperature which, on arrival was at 25 C and still at 25 C at midnight, dispite the room's heating being set at 17C. My inquiries were not well received (I was blamed for 'fiddling witht the controls' which was not the case. Eventually it was admitted that they have a serious problem with the underfloor heating and that thermal control of the rooms was ineffective. On the second day we switch off the heating entirely yet, even with an outside temperature below zero, the room temperature reached 24C on the third night. I asked whether it might be possible to change rooms, since I argued that such a high room temperature was unacceptable and was told that 'this was a decision only the owner could make' and that they couldn't contact the owner (or perhaps wouldn't), and that they did not know when the ower would be visiting. ('they come and go). So no-one on site has the managerial responsibility to deal with issues of this kind. The food was very average as well

The location building and grounds were great. The servi e from staff was excellent. Warm and friendly. The breakfast was excellent. Cooked well. The room however was basic and dated. For the price was @ £195 per night, was expecting 5 star. Wouldnt give the room 1 star. Clean yes, functional yes, quality no.

An excellent stay thank you, well appointed room, with balcony overlooking a beautiful Lakeland view. Staff most helpful and courteous.

Having stayed in a lot of local hotels in the Whitehaven and Cockermouth Area, in my experience and in my opinion, this is by far the best place to stay. Upon entering the hotel I received a very warm welcome and I was shown to a very well presented, clean and well maintained room which looks to be recently decorated too. A warm welcome in the bar and the food was delicious Breakfast is amazing and fantastic views. I still have a further night to stay but I feel comfortable enough to leave my review and book for my next stay too. Thank you!

Couldn’t fault a thing. Lots of little extras. Staff so welcoming and helpful, made us feel really comfortable throughout our stay. Comfy beds with everything we needed in the room. Balcony with an amazing view across the countryside. Excellent food and well stocked bar. We spent our first night in the hotel & so glad we did. Thank you for an exceptional weekend. Would definitely return & recommend to others.

Just home from a fantastic stay for Valentines. Great deal with a fabulous 3 course evening meal with included canopies and coffee and chocolates after. The rooms are spotless the beds very comfortable The staff are very friendly and go the extra mile to be helpful and the service is second to none highly recommended.

Lovely, quiet, peaceful location. Lovely place to stop staff very friendly and helpful and food was fantastic. The room very clean and tidy had a great view of the countryside and the sheep and horses in the field next door.
