String of Horses

Just had the most lovely meal here. Amazing sirloin steak and my partner had the steak pie. It was all delicious! Staff were brilliant - so polite, friendly and professional . This place is a hidden gem! We live locally and can’t believe we’ve not been here to eat before… so pleased we’ve tried it and we will be back!

What an unexpected pleasure. Room 4 was large and very comfortable. Bar was full of a**osphere with fires burning. Dinner was excellent. Breakfast was also very good. Sam who runs the place was very attentive and couldn’t do enough for us. I highly recommend.

We stayed for 2 night's from the 16th until the 18th and sue and colin certainly did well, infact very well indeed. I couldnt of asked for more. The room was amazing, the food was WOW! Sue was such a lovely lady- she couldnt do enough for you! It was the first time i took my giirfriend away :) and lets just say it was an experience we will never forget. Thanks guys. 😊

Stopping here on the way to Edinburgh from London just had a really nice meal. It's a proper pub full of locals which is nice. But the restaurant is a cut above your usual pub grub. My partner had the pie and I had hotpot neither disappointed and the good fresh well cooked veg made it great.

This hotel is fantastic the staff are friendly and helpful and the food is absolutely superb. Difficult to get to because of the amount of roadworks / diversions in that area. The real problem I had was my room it was so noisy I thought I was sitting in the pool room very,very noisy. So I'd advise asking for a quiet room when you book.

From the warmest welcome by Sam to a clean cosy room to wonderful food, we had a lovely one night stay here, will definitely come back next time we are in this area. The hotel was lovely and clean and the bed really comfortable which meant a great nights sleep followed by a good breakfast we were sad to leave.

Unique old-fashioned a**osphere, great beer, dinner, room a tad small but comfy, very warm personnel, great base to visit Carlisle, Hadrian’s wall and Lake district

Absolutely fine ..as advertised..very comfortable..quiet location...good food and drinks selection..no complaints...oh and staff ( Sam and Chloe) very professional and friendly..ps you will need to have your headlights on if you arrive in the dark..

Overall the hotel was good and clean with the room comfortable with plenty of parking space. There was no food available on the Sunday night, however there were alternative options available with delivery's from pizza and other food outlets from the nearby town. If your relying on WIFI for work emails or calls don't, very much a hit and miss. The only real negative point was the shower not very good with little or limited heat and power. I may of been unlucky and other rooms may have been a lot better.
