Top The Herdy Shop Hotel Reviews

Rydal Hall Christian Retreat

8/10 Good

"The the property and gardens, of course are phenomenal. This is an older. estate property so some issues can be expected with the conditions of the finishes. Unfortunately, with us being seniors, it was very difficult for us to get our luggage to the third floor by stairs. The size of the rooms are also quite small but clean. Furniture in the room was appropriate for the period and comfortable. The staff was very helpful in trying to resolve outside issues such as Parking in town which is not their responsibility. So that was very much appreciated. Breakfast was very good. We also had dinner there from a selected menu and it was good. This property had no TVs in the rooms. Wi-Fi was good."

Victorian House

10/10 Excellent

"A best place to stay. Perfect location with parking. The staff was really friendly and welcoming. The room was clean and tidy. Loved staying here. And will be booking again whenever visiting nearby areas."

Beck Allans Guesthouse

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely guesthouse in center of Grasmere, walking distance to everything, including to Dove Cottage (Wordsworth’s home) and several trail heads. Great breakfast cooked to order."

Cottage In Beautiful Woodland Gardens

10/10 Excellent

"The property was lovely, very relaxing and quaint. The only problem with the weekend was actually locating the property, the post code isn't recognised and the property really is in the woods, none of the locals had heard of it when we asked at pubs / shops etc. A hard copy in the post with few a photos of landmarks en-route (pub, car parks, entrance to country lanes etc) to form a pictorial guide would help tremendously. Note the mobile reception in the area is quite iffy, print off all the instructions given by Sue the host.Also, when using the Vrbo app, the number / link given to contact the host said not recognized. All the above taken into consideration, the property and area really are worth a visit."

Moss Grove Organic

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel, lovely chilled environment, fab breakfast and friendly staff, really recommend this place. It is such a shame it is being developed into apartments later in the year taking all the character away."
