Lovely but needs price transparency

Lovely hotel and staff but could have been more transparent on pricing. I charged my electric car (only half a battery so usually £20 tops) and found a £45 bill waiting for me. There was no indication of cost or rates charged. With breakfast we saw it was included but that’s just continental ie if you actually want anything from the menu then you pay the overpriced fee for it. But lovely hotel and lovely staff - just wishes it had better price transparency

We booked for one night to attend a funeral locally. Unfortunately the kitchen was in the process of refurbishment so there was no food on site, however our hosts did everything they could to make us comfortable and catered for - they gave us a bigger room with a kitchenette, booked us into the local pub for dinner and charged our EV for free. In the circumstances we couldn’t have expected more.

The accommodation was lovely: both fresh and modern in style and we are likely to return when in the area to experience the full catered stay. But for the lack of kitchen we would have given 5 stars all around.

These people suck

They were the rudest people I've ever met and left us to sleep in our car. They wouldn't let us in cause it was late arrival. Terrible everything was booked for hours around us.

Lovely hotel with gorgeous surroundings, lush breakfast views and plentiful food options including vegan. Wished we'd had time to dine for dinner as such a pretty dining area and location. Lovely spacious, comfortable and luxurious room! Bathroom could be updated a little but was fine and spacious, hot water took a while to heat up and fluctuated a bit. Only slight complaint was that the 2nd morning there was some gentle pop on at breakfast (Ed Sheeran and the like) but it had quite a beaty bass and as our room was just above the dining area we were woken up from 0730ish to the noise of the bass which confused us as it came through the floor as though we'd woken up above a club! So would recommend the alternative tranquil bossa nova-ey music at breakfast which we had the first morning which was lovely and made us feel like we were back on holiday abroad! Otherwise the location was so quiet and tranquil :) We didn't bring our EV but looked like there were chargers too.

Travel back from Scotland

The hotel is very clean and tidy, everything is as new and a high standard (e.g. new carpets, no dust or tired décor like the large chain hotels) . Bathroom clean modern, functional. Bed mattress was lovely and soft. Host was extremely welcoming and polite. Food was excellent. Not just a great stop-over during travels, but a hotel that I would come back to for a holiday also. Very convenient for M6 travels and north Cumbria holidays.

Great stay

We stayed for one night on the way home from Scotland. We were welcomed and checked in by a friendly lad, who showed us to our lovely room (the willow room), which is very spacious and has a really comfortable bed. The bathroom is huge too, with a separate bath and shower, and some lovely toiletries. We ate in the restaurant in the evening, very good quality food and service. The owner was friendly and made sure that we had everything we needed. Would definitely recommend.

It was some time since I last visited Carlisle and I was pleased when the staff provided useful information which helped me focus on places to visit during my short stay. Willow Lodge has a quiet rural setting but with easy access to the City and the M6 moterway. The rooms are clean, comfortable and maintained to a very high standard.

I’m not normally a fan of B&Bs, but this property is excellent. This B&B is located in a very quiet, rural location with lots of chirping birds, trees and a small pond. It is a 10 minute drive back to the City Center, where there is a train station, historic sites & pubs. The owners are very nice, helpful and not nosey/intrusive (one of the reasons I don’t like B&Bs). Our room (Willow Room) was very large with a huge bathroom and separate soaking tub. Breakfast is available in the morning. We wish we could have stayed longer. We will definitely return.

Fantastic Stay

Stopped off on the way up to Scotland as the pictures of the lodge looked amazing and is located very close to the M6. We were not disappointed, the lodge is located in a very secluded part of a nice village with fantastic grounds and huge bedrooms and en-suites where the owners could not do enough for you to make you welcome. Originally picked due to the proximity to the motorway but will definitely be staying again next time we fancy a weekend away in the Lake district or just stopping off for the evening.

Superlative accommodation in private setting

I stayed at Willowbeck Lodge the night before participating in an event in Carlisle called The Wall. The lodge is a well appointed building in private grounds complete with bridge and lake. Upon arrival the owner treated me to large G&T on the veranda and was patient enough to listen to my nervous banter about the day to come. Not only that the owner was good enough to rise in time to prepare breakfast at 0600 and drove me to the start line! All above an beyond what was expected.
