New year visit.

We went for a three day break after new year. The hotel was slightly busier than we or the staff expected which created a great atmosphere. The hotel is rooms above a restaurant/Pub, neither of which can be heard when you get to your room which was a real pleasant surprise. The residents lounge area at the front of the pub is a great idea, when the log fires are on it really is a great place to relax with a drink and let the dog sleep after a days walking. The bedroom was compact, but very clean & comfortable. The ensuite bathroom (beautifully decorated) is a great size, unlike the bath which was on the small side! The choice of food & drink was superb, lots of fresh ingredients used in the menu. The breakfast was superb, with lots of choice. I have to mention the staff, who from check In to check out were amazing! They are extremely professional and friendly with it. They couldn'tdo more to make you feel very welcome! The village of Pooley bridge is a great base for exploring the Northern area of the lakes. The fact it snowed whilst we were there only added to the villages beauty. We will definitely be returning!

The hotel is a large old inn on the outside, but inside is modern, clean and very comfortable. The staff were very friendly and looked after us very well. For example: we were shown to our room on arrival (never had that before) and were a font of knowledge about the various local walks and sights. There is even a map painted on the ceiling of the bar! Restaurant was an excellent source of hearty and freshly cooked meals (breakfasts and dinners). Highly recommend.

Everything about our stay at The Crown Inn was brilliant. The staff were warm, welcoming and the friendly. The hotel, bar and restaurant look great and our room was lovely with modern facilities with nice comfy bed ! We had dinner and breakfast which was delicious - the burger in particular that I had was one of the best that I’ve had. The location is beautiful, a lovely quiet village with great scenery and ideally placed to explore the Lakes. Our only regret is that we only stayed for one night as a stopover on our way to Scotland. We will definitely come back but stay for several nights next time !! We highly recommend.

Great long weekend in a great location

Great hotel in a great location. Room was very clean and a decent size. Having fresh milk and proper mugs for tea in the room alongside border biscuits was great. The room was very warm for us on arrival, even with the radiator off, but leaving the windows open did the trick. Overall a great stay!
