Extremely clean tidy and very well kept hotel. Very friendly and efficient owner, very effective staff. Small owner run hotel. Adequate car parking very close to front door, with nice wide spaces. Food breakfast and eve meal is excellent very nicely presented and high quality food at a reasonable price. Lovely old building with character. Very close to Cockermouth town centre which is 2 mins walk away. Within 30-45 mins drive of Buttermere, Ennerdale, Loweswater, Seathwaite and Keswick for a wide range of fell walking. This is one of the best, nicest hotels I have stayed in.

My Room No. 9 on the second floor only had a veluxe roof window so had a view of the sky only. This did not matter to me, but might matter to others.

What a grand old building, set back from the main street in Cockermouth. There is a private car park at the front which was very useful. The sweeping staircase and lots of oak gave a really nice impression as we checked in. This was a friendly and smooth transaction. Our room on the first floor was lovely and quiet except for the birds singing which was great. The bathroom and some fitments within it were a little dated, however the over bath shower was hot and powerful and the towels were lovely and fluffy, so couldn't ask for more than that. Breakfast was plentiful and very tasty indeed - really good quality. While there, I left a small item in the room and when we contacted the hotel the next day, they agreed to send it back to me. Very kind of them - hope it arrives. :-)

Not a dislike at all, just a mention - due to us staying on a Sunday evening the hotel bar was closed, so we weren't able to sample an aperitif there before our event. This would have been nice to soak up the atmosphere of such a fine old building.

I was visiting friends who couldn't put me up but the Manor House was the perfect place to stay. I had a single room with bathroom on the top floor which had everything I needed and was very clean and comfortable. The skylight window was fine, given that I was out all day and most of the evening. The breakfast was ideal for someone who doesn't eat a cooked breakfast (muesli, fruit salad, yoghurt, warmed croissant...) and all the staff I met were friendly, welcoming and helpful. The location of the hotel is perfect - right in the town centre but with plenty of parking.

Access to the top floor is a slight concern given the steep and narrow staircase - I would worry about escape in the event of a fire. The walls are maybe a bit thin - I could hear people in the next room but it wasn't a problem.

The Hotel is in a perfect location. We had a lovely room at the front of hotel with a great balcony. Room a little bit dated but that adds to the charm. Lovely little garden area and great little cozy bar. So clean and comfortable. Staff were all so nice and couldn't do enough for you. Just a walk up the street of an evening and plenty of bars that are friendly and relaxing with live entertainment on. Lovely little Tea Rooms local too. The Turkish Restaurant is the best we've eaten in. Highly recommend it.

Would have been nice with a walk in shower instead of having to climb into the bath. But that is the only obstacle for me.

The hotel has an excellent location, close to the centre and the Sea to Sea Cycle route. We were warmly welcomed by Kane on reception. Secure bike storage is provided. Our room was spacious, with a beautiful ensuite and the comfortable bed. We ate in the lounge bar- again a very relaxing room offering small plates from the restaurant menu which were delicious and well presented. The staff were kind, friendly and helpful. Breakfast was excellent and had good vegetarian options including a delicious leek and cheese “ sausage” I hadn’t come across before. We’ll stay again if we have the opportunity.

Nothing.

Plenty of car parking right outside the hotel. I arrived late but the member of staff was very helpful. I had an early start the next day and the staff gave me a continental breakfast to take with me. My room was a single on the top floor. Comfortable, quiet and everything working in the room. The shower was powerful and plenty of hot water. The TV worked well and was clean. The WiFi was efficient. Good value for money. Thank you.

One thing was missing. The skylight window didn`t have a blind.

Lovely Grade II List building, many original features. Staff very nice, run more like a B&B than a hotel. Generally the place was clean. Overall, it was nice, warm, very friendly and welcoming. The breakfast was great, as was the service.

The room was small and cramped on the second floor, with no lift it was a bit of a struggle with luggage. In the room the wardrobe selves were dusty, the hair dryer didn't work and the shower head was full of thick black mould. Parking was a little squeezed at times, though booked with parking, the restaurant does attract incoming diners, who take up valuable space.

We booked the suite room and - I may have read the listing incorrectly- but was surprised that our lodgings wasn't in the actual Manor House but rather a separate house close to the House! It was a really sweet and lovely house and we all loved it, it was perfect for my dad's birthday. The house was very clean and so cosy and comfortable, the staff we spoke to were lovely and the area of Cockermouth was amazing to explore as our first time in the Lake District. We will definitely be returning in the future :)

The light for the bathroom is motion detection, so was a bit of a struggle going there in the middle of the night

The location was very near to the town centre...check in was smooth and quick...the staff was courteous and friendly....the room was clean n tidy, esp the bathroom and the breakfast was yummy and delicious !!!!

No lift in the hotel , esp when the room was on the 2nd floor. Bathtub was too small, bettwr to have a shower curtain to limit the water from spilling outside. The sound proofing of rooms/walls should have been better. The TV channel's availability could have been better !!!!

Very friendly staff, comfortable & homely feel. Food was excellent especially the steak pie, best ever! Location is great for the High St shops and restaurants. Tried several hotels in the area, for me personally this rates as the best option so far.

Only issues were the TV from the room above on too loud until early hours along with the creaking floor boards & doors banging did unfortunately keep me awake. But after saying this, these things were annoying, but certainly would not put me off returning.
