We have stayed at Shap Wells many times, this visit proved as good as previous ones. We had a nice comfortable room and a very good evening meal, the following morning we had a very good breakfast. Before leaving we walked along the stream to see the red squirrels and they didn't disappoint, several were running around. Shap Wells has a great location, comfortable rooms, good food and friendly staff.

Staff very friendly in all departments, food was excellent, both dinner and breakfast. Room although on the small side was adequate, however some areas hadn’t been cleaned to a reasonable standard. The downstairs areas were very clean and had been updated.

The hotel is remote and access roads are full of pot holes...take it slow! The hotel is dated and overpriced. The bedrooms are small and very tired looking. The bathroom wasnt clean and needs to be replaced. For one night it is ok, especially after a long drive, if you like 70/80's decor then this is for you.

Tired hotel. Avoid at peak times with kids/ dogs
Quite old fashioned hotel . Lovely inside and grand however rooms quite dated and tired in places. Bathroom especially dated and no luxuries at all. The hotel had a coach party in and service was quite slow. Luckily had some drinks in car as no service and no dogs allowed in bar area ! Wouldnt recommend for single parent with kids. Staff were helpful when asked and had time but unable to see to everyone. Compared to other hotels for.same money would not.use again . Breakfast was great and really enjoyed it. Small selection but nice.

The hotel must've been impressive in it's hayday but the room we were allocated was somewhat rundown and inferior to those in the photos in the listing. Good breakfast and nice walks nearby.
