미어우드 컨트리 하우스

Lovely old hotel- with breathtaking views see photo for view our room- the staff were lovely and friendly and couldn’t do enough for you - the room we were in was a four poster one and it needed updating , particularly the bathroom which had zero water pressure it was a struggle to shower-and it was little details like no hooks in doors to hang coats or dressing gowns the hotel overall is a little tired and needs attention, there are shabby printed signs in the rooms telling you about being environmentally friendly and therefore the rooms are not serviced during your stay so should you require anything to fill in a replenishment form- whilst this was a minor issue the fact that after 3 nights stay our bins were overflowing was more problematic, had we stayed longer we would have to ask to have them emptied which would have been a little awkward whilst I’m all for being environmentally aware I believe the reality is that the hotel is cutting corners to save money - the breakfast is very good and the location is great for visiting the central lakes with an excellent bus service - despite the issues mentioned - we had a wonderful stay and would definitely go back for the views, staff and breakfasts alone!
