Outstanding! Thank you very much. Friendly, welcoming and helpful from arrival till departure. Prepared a plentiful breakfast for us early before trip to Scafell Pike, did so again for youngsters who got up late too. Lovely pub / inn with great rooms. WiFi and TV worked, microwave also provided in rooms. Dinners were excellent. Fantastic beer garden, great for kids. We are extremely grateful, 10/10. Thank you very much, we will definitely stay again.

If you are without a car, it means walking on the road. But that's not the inn's fault, just something to know.

Rooms were really nice and clean, staff were amazing very helpful and very friendly, nice cosy bar/restaurant area, nice big open beer garden where we enjoyed a few drinks in the sun and the food was superb.

The only issue I had with it was a minor one. On the website it said the bar opened at 12 but didn't state that it closed between 3 and 5 so we turned up just after 4 to have a few drinks in the beer garden to find the bar was closed. The chef was kind enough to serve us a drink each around half 4 once we had checked in and taken our stuff to our room.

Really nice pub close to the village great parking ! I had a really nice stay nice to be able to find somewhere down to earth nice couple running this pub / hotel rooms are nice and clean spacious and the beds are comfy slept really well nice powerful warm shower too !! I would definitely return there is so much I could say as we enjoyed our food can tell owners are putting effort in with what spare time they have as new paint was being put on the bar and doors lovely the best thing is the rooms are not a rip of and are great value for money I know the cost of living is expensive and running a business is by no means cheap or easy but it’s nice not to be paying over the odds for a hotel room and was great keep up the great work was a awesome find !! Great dog friendly place to stay

Just a recommendation ! Perhaps give the car park a tidy up and around the back stair case and put the WiFi codes in the rooms but this is constructive criticism and nothing that effected my stay do not be put of staying here it’s a lovely quite place to stay with friendly staff and close by amenities and beach awesome thank you !!

It was easy to find and access, the staff were absolutely lovely, when we came downstairs for some food, we spent ages chatting with them & putting the world to rights. The food was delicious, locals were friendly and the room was so comfortable!

The room was really warm and we couldn’t open the window BUT that was a minor issue. Getting the right hot/cold balance in the shower takes a little fine tuning as the hot is VERY hot. But again, just a little tweaking and it was no issue :)

The staff were amazing, nothing was too much trouble. The location was perfect for us as we were heading to wastwater to go paddle boarding, and the facilities were great. For a bargain price room it had everything we needed. We ate in the restaurant for our evening meal and breakfast, the food was great quality and very well priced.

There was a slight cleanliness issue but the staff were very apologetic and sorted it very quickly.

Location was fab, we'd booked in for a rest after Scafell/Wastwater trekking. Arrived a little early because we got done walking a bit earlier than expected. Still greeted with a warm welcome, where we were sat in the pub with a drink whilst the room was finalised. Hosting was certainly best I've experienced in a guest house setting. Even got a pencil for a crossword puzzle! Popped to Seascale (no distance really) for some tea and a walk in the evening. Bed was ridiculously comfortable and slept heavier than I have in weeks. The upstairs has been done up so well, fabulous place and fabulous value for money really.

So little to complain about it seems petty. There was a bit of trouble regarding the windows staying open. No remote for the tv which was a minor inconvenience really. Light under door maybe do with a draught excluder or something but just used a rolled up jumper. Bigger mugs for drinks maybe but the thing I have a brew out of normally is like a trough so personal preference I guess.

The staff at the red admiral are incredible and cannot help you enough, the gentleman that greeted us when we arrived was there almost everyday of our 5 day stay and he was incredible, he couldn’t do enough for us was so friendly and chatty so helpful nothing we asked for was too much, also food here was incredible steak was cooked perfectly to how I asked everything was so fresh, pub in site of hotel was great plenty drinks options great atmosphere, so comfortable too. We were made to feel so welcome we will 1000% be visiting again in the near future. It’s also a great location not even a 2 minute drive to local village with shops that have everything you need and around 7 minutes from the nearest beach which was beautiful and had the most amazing ice cream shop which was also pointed out to us by the incredible gentleman from the hotel. Honestly can’t say a bad word about it the views all around are amazing, nice outdoor pub area with a little woods out back to walk to pooch and I cannot thank the man who was there during our stay honestly made our holiday so much so sweet and friendly absolutely loved our very needy dog! Lol you were incredible and for whoever gets to come across him during your stay you are lucky! Thank you so much!

Fabulous Customer Service. Booked a room for my friends as a treat they were visiting Braystones. We all had a fantastic Sunday dinner, where we were greeted by the chef nice touch. Bar service and waiting on service very friendly. Lovely character building. Would highly recommend. My friends said the room was comfortable and cosy, and breakfast was delicious. Thanks all at the Red Admiral.

Booked this hotel as a quick 1 night stop over on a budget. It is an isolated pub just outside of Gosforth. It was very warm and welcoming, the pub is pretty. The bedroom was small and basic but had everything we needed. We had made alternative arrangements for breakfast prior to booking, so can't comment on the food.

Not a fan of showers in the bath. Nothing else to complain about.

The food was excellent and very happy with the drink too. There were road closures affecting the business, and we were able to buy drinks to take to our rooms if wanted before the bar closed at 10pm

We didnt get used to the noise of a fan, and the bed was so hot despite having the window wide open and the temperature outside being cool. We could have slept better.
