Queen's Head Askham

8/10 Good

"Lovely place with lots of character situated in a pretty village in the North Lakes. Ideal for exploring Lowther Castle and Gardens and for walking the surrounding fells. The room was spacious and very comfortable - especially the large 4 poster bed. Dog friendly too. Lindsay, who organised and served breakfast, was excellent - friendly and interested in us. The room was a bit cold but, to be fair, we didn't raise this. Good ambiance in the bar on an evening. We would stay again and recommend it to others. Thank you for a lovely stay."

Queens Head Inn

8/10 Good

"We were thankful we could book this stay after 6pm online and get into our room soon after I did have a similar experience as another reviewer who said the manager had a card machine promt for me to pay I told him we had payed via hotels.com and after checking he apologized I asked to borrow an iron and was told they don't have one as they were new owners/managers So take your own if you can Nice pint and open fire in there It seems most punters know one another well and we did feel a little out of ace but it wasn't a problem really The room was small and we did have issue with old water system making a horrendous noise every time the toilet flushes (and in the next room) I would stay again if caught short but otherwise I'd probably stay elsewhere Sorry"
