We started our journey on the back of a beer mat in 2017, with our first unit opening The Townhouse in Barrow-in-Furness. Since then, we've developed other aspects of the business from private dining rooms, wine cellars, meeting rooms, hotels, terraces and beer gardens, investing every penny of profit along the way to grow our group.
Customers expect more; they want an immersive experience, they want quirky, fun and creative ideas that don't always sit within the hospitality genre, so we cater to the modern customer because we are a people business. We love developing innovative talents and seeing individuals shine in the business.

Do not book this hotel!
1st night waited 30 minutes for a menu despite 3 requests.
Next morning waited 20 minutes for bacon,sausages,mushrooms etc to be delivered to self service counter. No coffee til we requested it.
Then at 3 in afternoon we were told the restaurant would be closed for next 2 nights!
Appalling! We checked out after being reassured we would get a refund on Travelzoo voucher. They won’t refund it!

Had a great night, very clean room
But, as I was checking out before even asking if I was exempt
I had a guest and the lady behind the counter at reception basically gang up on me for not wearing a mask
This is not what you want first thing in the morning
Managed to contain myself and keep a smile on my face somehow

Stayed two nights in the downstairs rooms, my room was large with ensuite I had a good view from my side. Breakfast was good, whilst you wait for a cooked meal which was great you can help yourself to coffee , tea etc , toast cereal, fruit,yogurt.. I was there for a wedding and the meals were really nice for that. Outside was like being abroad, felt like you were on holiday, probably the weather helped as it was gorgeous . Staff helpful. From the car park it is a bit of a walk with luggage, but you can drive straight up to the entrances and leave your luggage with the staff and return your car

This was our second stay in this lovely hotel. The rooms are very clean and comfortable with a modern bathroom. Staff were friendly and helpful, the views from the conservatory dinning room are excellent. Ideal place for a quiet break in close proximity to Lake District attractions. Highly recommended.

Been a couple of times and sat outside, it's always scruffy on the outside and never swept properly, the girls who served us was lovey but a touch untrained from the kitchen of what's on the menu etc.
Ordered a steak sandwich with caramelized onions and mushrooms but came without any mushrooms in the sandwich, waitress passed the message on didn't here anything else about it, (kitchens responsibly to tell staff), I had the brie and bacon with cranberry which was lovely.
So I'll cut to the chase: Thought the lunchtime menu was lazy, the outside should be tidy and clean, the serving staff was very
