I've stayed at the Trout a number of times, it is a pretty, well maintained hotel with lots of character and ideally placed to explore Cockermouth, the Western Lakes and the national park. The food is good and the staff are professional and very friendly.

Whilst the hotel was clean and comfortable after an efficient and early check in sadly things went down hill. We had a very good sandwich in the bar with drinks however the service was distinctly average and we waited several minutes for service at which time the bar was unattended. After attending a function during the day we returned tobthe bar area for a couple of drinks. My wife was directed to another area to order non alcoholic cocktail then sent back to order a pint of bitter as they did not serve that there. Staff were conducting conversations across the bar and dining area in loud voices which came across as unnecessary and unprofessional which ruined the relaxing atmosphere. Breakfast the following morning was ok but we were not asked if we wanted tea or coffee or told that eggs were available with our cooked breakfast on request. We also had to ask for sauces and had we not started eating our food it would have been cold by the time it arrived. It seemed that both the dining area and bars were working on minimal staffing levels and therefore didn't run effectively. Overall it is a lovely hotel in pleasant surroundings but the service is somewhat lacking

We had a lovely stay in one of the hotels apartments that was linked but you have to cross a courtyard. We expected it to have a higher standard than it did we did recommend to the hotel that they put a Nespresso Machine in. The price difference between the rooms we felt did not meet value for money as the bedroom was very tight and the lounge quite small. If you don’t like noise in a hotel if there’s a chance that an event might be on then this room would maybe work better for you then. All in all everything was ok and we did have a nice stay.

Lovely hotel

Lovely stay in a beautiful garden room. Came up to Cockermouth for a family occasion and the Trout didn’t disappoint. Very Covid safe. Friendly staff from the minute we checked in until we left. Super comfortable super king sized bed, fresh clean linens, quiet location in centre of town.
Good lunch menu and breakfast. Service at breakfast was a bit disjointed and cooked breakfast was brought out before starters was finished but very accommodating with kiwi fruit allergy.
