Buttermere Vacation Packages

The Bowl is a lovely old pub with rooms - Staff were lovely and thefood was good. The room was clean and very pretty but a little tired in decor - the carpet and flooring were tired. and the bathroom could do with an update. Breakfast was great and again the morning staff were welcoming and food was lovely. Yes i would stay again, but i would ask for a room with a walk in shower as too old to climb into a bathtub.

Nothing much to complain about the property. Car park is 5 mins walk away. Bar was good and staff there was friendly, however at the reception whether it was night or day time do not think they wanted to be there. No smiles, no welcoming.. pretty poor really

Upon arrival the room was relatively clean and straightened out nicely. Decorated to an OK standard. However, the room itself was absolutely sweltering and could've done with a fan or a portable air conditioning unit. I had to open both the windows wide to let some cool air in.....which unfortunately let the screaming and shouting from outside in too. But hey, I've booked something in the heart of student land so that's sort of on me as well! As far as cleanliness goes....look a little closer you'll see things aren't so great and definitely lacks attention to detail in that are. Not the worst but certainly not the best. It looks like shower gel, handwash and shampoo were provided once upon a time but now all that remain are empty containers. This is such a basic thing so either do it or don't. Kitchenette area was reasonably clean with utensils, plates bowls and a dishwasher provided. Overall, it was OK but could do better. It seems like somebody has lost interest in it!

Great place but very disappointed with the extortionate car parking charges!
