Top Wearhead Hotel Reviews

Commercial Hotel

8/10 Good

"Great location,room was lovely and clean but access to the ensuit across a corridor not expected although again very clean ,unfortunately no catering available at this hotel although staff were very helpful in advising on realy good local cafes and restaurants, in general very good value for money."

The Three Horseshoes Hotel

8/10 Good

"It was a good place for my American visitors to spend their first night in the UK. A traditional pub in a very attractive town. Dinner and breakfast were good. We found the parking area at the back of Morrisons. A bit tight but after some back and forth I managed to wedge the car in and didn't block anyone else."

Royal Oak Appleby

8/10 Good

"The staff were lovely, breakfast great and easy parking outside on the road, less than a minutes walk. The dogs were well catered for. Only the bed was a bit soft for our taste, but would stay again as we did this time as part of an en-route journey north. Just wish we’d arrived in time for dinner as the food looked and smelled delicious. A really well run nice small hotel. And if you are looking for a short walk from the property there’s the walk to Appleby castle which was great to be able to do in the morning with the dogs before heading off in the car. Thank you!"

Slaley Hall Hotel, Spa & Golf Resort

8/10 Good

"Slaley is a grand hotel, outdated in parts, but don't let this put you off. Check in was quick, room spacious and clean. Nice view over looking the driveway. Bars were good and not to expensive. Breakfast was ok,food was fine, but kept running bout. lots of guests and the coffee machines kept running out aswell. Leisure facilities were good, could do with more loungers, but its finding places to put them. Overall had a good might away. Would stay again"
