Crown and Mitre Hotel

8/10 Good

"Fantastically located hotel. Right in the centre. M and s food store next door. Staff were charming and friendly. I’d certainly stay there again. Parking is a bit tight (say 20 spaces) and the hotel was well attended. That said, there was a cheap car park within a few feet."

Stonethwaite Barn, Dalston - a luxurious, dog friendly barn

10/10 Excellent

"Outstanding stay at Stonethwaite Barn We had a fantastic week at Stonethwaite Barn, Cardew. The barn itself is absolutely beautiful and finished to an outstanding quality. The beds were extremely comfortable, making for a truly relaxing stay. The location is fabulous, situated just 5 to 10 minutes away from most local amenities while still feeling like a peaceful getaway. Having access to a private garden was brilliant, plus there is an amazing shared garden area available to enjoy as well. It is very dog friendly, though it is worth noting that while the private garden is enclosed, determined or very small dogs might still need a little supervision. A special mention must go to the host, who was incredibly helpful throughout our stay and made us feel like nothing was ever too much trouble. We would recommend Stonethwaite Barn in a heartbeat!"

Spinney Corner
