Queens Head Inn

I stayed here for one night en-route from my home in SW England to the Scottish Highlands. My room ( Number 4 ) was extremely clean and very comfortable. It was furnished in a smart contemporary style. The en-suite was clean and modern with an excellent shower. There was a really nice and plentiful selection of teas, coffee and hot chocolate sachets and biscuits in my room and fresh milk was available from the fridge on the landing outside. The pub is a characterful old coaching inn and I chose it because of its location not far off the M6 but in a rural location. There is planets of car parking at the rear. All the staff are most welcoming and helpful. Breakfast was fresh and plentiful ices of continental and cooked. Some photos of my room attached I would stay here again.

This 7 room village hotel is a fabulous place to stay and then explore the area. It is in easy reach of Penrith, Keswick and Derwent Water, Ullswater and Pooley Bridge and many other places. The hotel is everything it should be, clean and tidy and the decor is truly rural and rustic. The rooms and facilities are modern and there is ample parking in the car park at the rear. The breakfast menu will satisfy the largest appetite to those who want less, and you can even mix and match what you want on your plate if that takes your fancy, the evening menu also has a good variety to choose from and comes highly recommended. All the staff we met during our stay here were fabulous, polite, welcoming and friendly and made our short stay here very, very enjoyable. We can recommended this accommodation to all travellers, I don't think you will be disappointed, we would certainly choose this hotel if we are ever in this part of Cumbria in the future. A Big Thank you to everybody.

Lovely staff. Gorgeous view from my room. But was not good value for single travellers! A couple in next room paid exactly the same as me and they had 2 dinners and 2 breakfasts to my 1. I would not recommend for this reason.

Lovely place, great and comfortable stay

All three of us chose different meals and all were delicious and clearly home made. We had booked online but the person wasn't aware of that and, to be honest, was not welcoming when we arrived. We felt like we were being a nuisance by wanting to have a meal and even when she took our order, she obviously wasn't happy! (She later realised it had been a glitch with online booking, and she was fine after that.) Other than that, nice atmosphere and super-delicious food!

Excellent and cannot wait to return!! We had an amazing stay. The staff started our great stay with so much help and information. The room was lovely (although at times loud as we had a macerator toilet which did give me a fright a few times). We have an evening meal in the pub and the food was beautiful with fantastic service. We stayed for 4 nights and had a delicious cooked breakfast every morning which really helped as our stay was due to us attending Kendal Calling festival. Everyone was so friendly and we enjoyed it so much we have booked for next years festival and cannot wait to return (just hoping to not have the macerator) Thank you all at the Queens Head we look forward to seeing you next year.
