Top Ainstable Hotel Reviews

County Hotel

8/10 Good

"Crisp, clean bedding and comfortable bed. Great location. Staff were very helpful and welcoming."

Cumbria Park Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The staff during the breakfast was so kindful! The room was perfect! I loved my stay!"

The Royal Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"It was a quick stop over trip as we were picking up things nearby so we booked late at night, arrived just before check in ended and had a large trailer with us. Staff were extremely helpful, helping us to park up safely, ensuring we had everything we needed etc. It was a comfy room, a lovely breakfast and a beautiful location. It was just a pity we had to be away early and couldn't stay and enjoy the location."

Appleby Castle

10/10 Excellent

"It was an amazing experience to be in a real castle we chose a cheaper room so we didn’t have an en-suite but a beautiful bathroom in the corridor instead. The owners were so helpful and friendly and we had a very good quality evening meal with beautiful romantic piano music played by the manager and a history talk too. The owner was a beautiful lady who chatted to us in the bar area. We’d like to go again. Breakfast was good."

Crown and Mitre Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Stayed in a club room, which is their best choice of room. Everything good would have liked a fridge in the room. Great location and friendly staff. Breakfast was great. Would stay again."

The Gables Hotel

8/10 Good

"The Gables has only been open 2 weeks. We were met with a warm welcome. Our room was comfortable and most importantly clean. We had a meal for dinner. Quite affordable and basic food. Think this area needs some tweaking. A most affordable stop over in Gretna."
