Location, room and breakfast.

The manageress wasn’t very friendly. I accidentally spilled water on the bed on our first night so I went down to speak to a member of staff in the bar. They said they’d contact the manager for fresh bedding but it didn’t come. When I handed the key over on our departure and to say goodbye and thank you she looked very put out. Not very hospitable for a manageress. We also heard people complaining about their meal and she didn’t come and see them she just stayed in her room.

The property was in the heart of Pooley Bridge so close to all amenities. Lovely room with a lovely private bathroom. Tv also in the room which was a nice touch as a single occupier. Good spacious room with a very comfy bed.

It wasn’t the cleanest of properties and the ceiling in my room needed some repair work. The windows were filthy and could’ve done with a clean. The neighbours across from my room were up super early and I could hear everything they were doing in the morning therefore woke me up before I needed to get up.

Classic old pub, restaurant with accommodations. I’ve ambiance, Langland waited up until our arrival as 11.45 due to work issues. Dog friendly and lovely location alongside lake. Walking distance Good for short dog walk locally.

Classic old school pub, but sympathetically modernised. Very comfortable. The landing to rooms, worth a smile, the floor nicely uneven giving the impression that one had a good night at the bar… The service staff could do with smiling at their costumers. The breakfast was good, but ticking boxing on everything you wanted on your plate was a bit odd, all I wanted was a full English? I may have overlooked a box or something?

Location was absolutely fantastic, couldn’t have asked for better. Access to Ullswater and smack bang in middle of Pooley Bridge. Staff were very friendly, check in was straight forward. Room was clean and tidy and comfortable. Price of room very reasonable. Free car park on site too which was brilliant. We didn’t eat at the pub but we had drinks and service was fab. Couldn’t have asked for better. Would recommend.

Breakfast is basic but very good value for money. The room was comfortable and as expected for the price we paid. The location is superb and the car park was brilliant as car parks in the Lakes are expensive. Overall, if you’re looking for an affordable base to explore the area then the Sun Inn is a good choice.

I would have been happy to have more options at breakfast even if it was a bit more expensive

Room was very clean and ready for us when we arrived. We didn't have breakfast at the hotel during our stay, but the lunch and evening food was very good, although they did seem to run out of some of the more popular dishes quite quickly.

No negative points in general, but it did seem they were under staffed in the bar at times.

Very clean comfy single room. Great shower with soft towels. Nicely decorated. Staff were really friendly and helpful. Plenty of parking. Breakfast was absolutely delicious with plenty of choice, needed to preorder but that wasn’t a problem.

The slight negatives was the radiator temperature knob was completely broken so it was incredibly hot. I opened the window which helped. Also the bed was an old style spring mattress… which I could feel however it didn’t stop me sleeping, was just slightly uncomfortable.

The room was spacious enough; The staff were friendly enough. The welcome was warm. The dining room was well prepared and the food was lovely. The bathroom was adequate and the shower easy to operate. The corridor was nice with books to read for eg Lakeland walks & a comedic book 😁 The location was idyllic being so close to the Lakeside and near to convenient pubs, one of which we paid a visit to.

For breakfast, I'd ordered vegetarian but was surprised to find a meat sausage on my plate with the other items of food. I had to tell the kitchen staff upon which they made me a fresh (vegetarian) sausage &/ breakfast. The only other thing I didn't like was that the shower was too small. The shampoo holder (stuck to the wall with suckers) fell off the wall during my shower as I'd struck it inadvertently because of the limited space within the shower cubicle.

I loved the location. 10 mins walk to Ullswater Lake. Didn't know there's a bus from Penrith Station which stops outside the Sun Inn. Another plus is the 508 bus into Penrith village has a bus stop right outside the hotel. The staff were friendly and very diligent in making sure we were attended to. Breakfast is great! Compliments to the chef as dinner was excellent!

The Inn has an old air about it, perhaps because of the age of the building, suggest the windows on the landing where the rooms are located be opened regularly to allow fresh air to rotate. Our bedroom window couldn't stay open which added to the room feeling hot and stuffy.

A cracking country inn at a great location with lovely walks on the doorstep. Nice bar with good beer and good food. It is a very dog-friendly place and our black lab enjoyed it as much as we did. Plenty four-legged company to be had.

I can’t think of anything that needs improving. A warning to tall people though - mind your head at the top of the stairs where a vicious door lintel connected with me a couple of times!
