Roundthorn Country House & Luxury Apartments

The deluxe room was amazing, size and views met my expectation. The double room we stayed in on 26.07.22 was ok, but had no view and was accessed by steep stairs. There was no one to help with the luggage.

Breakfast - On both occasions the food was warm only, the bacon and sausage not tasty the bacon hard, as though it had been sitting around a while. The eggs on both occasions were hard centred not soft. Not really impressed with the breakfast. The supper though was very nice - the smoked salmon starter and the side of fresh vegetables was delicious.

2nd trip to Roundthorn hotel. 1st time we stayed in the hotel, this time in one of the 2 bedroom apartments for 3 nights. Loved the standard of the apartment, especially the spacious living area. Free scone with the latte is still a nice touch. Eating dinner next to a log fire surrounded by christmas decorations was delightful. Going to look into staying next christmas/new year as we've been told the parties are great fun. Staff are probably the friendliest of any hotel we've ever stayed in.

There had been a power-cut in the area and the TV wasn't working properly. Not Roundthorns fault and Meini kindly kept us informed of the repair situation.

Lovely countryside location. Stayed in the apartment which was great and well equipped. Comfy beds. Dishwasher. Smart TV etc with a charming view of sheep in the field. Superb food at the hotel. Sunday lunch was absolutely fantastic! Staff were really friendly and helpful

Only one issue which was with the water in the taps. It tasted very strongly of chemicals. It was so bad we had to go to town to buy mineral water. It was undrinkable. Also not the properties fault, but taxis were very hard to access so we had to walk to town to get a taxi back. No Uber and they wouldn’t take advance bookings.

It's an attractive property in an elevated rural setting with far-reaching views towards Lowther Castle, and easily accessible from the motorway. The staff were all very friendly, kind and helpful, and the food in the restaurant at supper and breakfast was very good. The rooms were comfortable and spacious.

It's worth noting that it's an old period building and some of the rooms are located up noticeably steep and narrow staircases, and/or have steps inside the room. Also we noticed that some rooms are quieter than others, so worth specifying any requirements around access/noise when you book.

We were staying over after a Golden Wedding Lunch at Roundthorn. The food was good fresh and tasty. The room we switched from the top floor to the middle floor as we wanted a room where windows could open. It wasnt as spacious as the Superior Room on second floor but suited us even though the bed was a double rather than a king. Staff were brilliant helpful attentive and ever so pleasant. would stay there again

Double bed was small after usual king sized, room more appropriate for an individual rather than a couple but in fairness the Hotel at the outset suggested we look first before deciding.

Wonderful setting with super views. Grounds well kept. Would have sat out on the terraces but it was too cold. Delicious breakfast, eggs benedict and eggs royale. It was a chill-out break so we sat and read in either the bar or very comfortable side lounge. Our evening meals were delicious, excellent value for money so we ate in the restaurant both nights. Extremely attentive and delightful staff, faultless. Room 10 at the top of the hotel was spacious with a kitchen area, although the bathroom is small (no bath). Love this hotel, love the coffee with free scones/cream/jam touch and it will now be our chill-out destination in the lakes. If we were getting married again, we'd get married here!

Nothing springs to mind!

Clean, modern and comfortable with great heating and great bathroom with powerful shower. Very close to everywhere we wanted to be for sight seeing and local restaurants. We didn't have much interaction with the hotel staff but when we did see them they were very attentive and friendly giving great service.

The Mews cottage was smaller than I thought, only seen the cottages online with two bedrooms so was surprised that our cottage was essentially just one big room meaning cooking smells travelled throughout. The induction hob and combined microwave and oven were exceptionally modern but too complicated to make use of when you're only there for a break, I didn't want to spend my time away reading cooker manuals 😬 we persevered and got them working eventually!!! Would have been really useful to have a coat hook or stand especially when staying in winter months.

was given a room at the top of the house, with wood beams and the room was very big as was the bathroom with a bath and separate shower, parking was easy and all close to the front door, the views from the house and garden were great, breakfast was super. good wifi in my room. all the staff i dealt with either on the phone before my stay or during my stay were very good

the stairs to the room started off ok but the further up you went the steeper and narrower they got, i would not like to bring anything bigger than a 'carry on' bag up them. being a old(er) house the hot water did take a little while to arrive when you turned on the tap, this didn't really bother me but can see some people getting impatient with it.

I had to take the grab and go breakfast as i had to leave early but it was very good. Good location, evening meal was really good quality and well cooked excellent staff.

The menu was a little limited however it is understandable considering the pandemic we have been through and peoples hesitancy to stay in Hotels etc even now. It would have been nice if the cooked breakfast had been served 30 minutes earlier but again you dont want to pay a cook if only one person is up at that time so not really a complaint and it helped my waistline.

Lovely one bed apartment, very clean and comfortable. Deck outside to sit in the sun or you can have drinks in the hotel garden which is really nice with views.

No storage space for food in the small kitchen, only 3 plates and bowls yet it has a dishwasher, would have preferred a cupboard as there aren't enough dishes to use in a dishwasher. The kitchen is a very high standard which was great.
