I have used this hotel four times this last year as a stopover for trips from south Devon to Scotland and overall have been pleased with the facilities and service provided. Meals have been excellent and the rooms comfortable and clean. My only concern has been with the service in the dining room: the staff are all delightfully friendly and welcoming but on each of my visits service has been very slow - it took 40 minutes last night for drinks we’d ordered to arrive and our meals a further 10. We weren’t the only ones waiting far too long. I’m sure some training or perhaps a shake up of procedures in the kitchen itself might help. Having driven over 350 miles yesterday I didn’t appreciate being kept waiting so long for my dinner!

Stayed several times. Would prefer better lock - extra chain lock on the bedroom door as anyone with a key card could enter. Also wasn't told to register my card upon check in. It is new so didn't know. If I get a fine I have to call the hotel but seems unnecessary way of doing things. Just let people know. Otherwise v nice stay

Room was clean, meal was nice. Stay here about 6 times a year for the last 12 years. A little on the expensive side but it’s a lovely place and convenient. Receptionist was not very friendly. For the first time since going there I was asked to leave card details as a deposit even though I’d paid up front. I stayed 3 weeks ago with a friend and was not asked details. My husband is staying next week as well. I have never felt so judged by one person. This was quite disappointing for somewhere I’ve been going for so long.

As is clear from ratings we really like this hotel. We have used it many times since it first opened in the 1970s and will continue to do so. Yes it's in a motorway service stop but Tebay shows how it can and should be done. Everything about the hotel is of high quality - the surrounding countryside, the hotel premises, the catering and especially the staff. Ideal

Extra hidden charges make this a rip off

Booked and paid for a dog feiendly room. When we got there, there was an additional charge of £16 per dog, which was not advertised on the Hotels.com site. So not dog friendly tgen! Rhat, on top of taxes that don't appear on the advertised price make this very expensive for a 'stop over'. Come on Hotels.com - be honest up-front about costs and get rid of sneaky, nasty surprises

Lovely convenient place to stay and dog friendly without charging extortionate cost. Great food in restaurant and services.
The only issue we found was that in the dog friendly rooms the floor is cork, which makes sense for cleaning. But when you sit up in bed and put your back against the headboard the bed rolls away from the wall!

Fantastic overnight stay

Westmorland hotel is a no brainer as a stopover for the 10 hr journey to the Scottish Highlands. I have not met such friendly and helpful staff in a long time. The room was vast with great views. We walked down to the farmshop and bought some goodies. In the morning we turned left out of the hotel and had a lovely short walk along a quiet lane. We ate in the restaurant in the evening and the food was fresh and tasted amazing. I cannot believe how convenient it is for the M6.

A last minute change of plans due to the severe weather didn't derail anything too hard. An incredibly peaceful stop with great food and the relaxation urgently needed. Not even a power cut during the night was too much of a problem as the comfortable night's sleep just came a little sooner! Would absolutely return here.

The book in stated we could arrive anytime and as such, we arrived at 1pm, but were told not only that we could not get our room to 3pm, but we couldn’t leave our bags anywhere safe in the hotel.
