Stayed for the night after spending the day at Arnside. A beautiful little place in an idyllic location, if you want a quiet little getaway. The building is full of character and history. Room was comfy and clean and they even provided earplugs in case the chiming of the church bells kept you awake. Food was excellent I had the Morecambe bay shrimps for starters and salmon for my main from the specials. This came with a delicious Asian slaw. My wife had the halloumi fries for starter followed by fish and chips. The breakfast the following morning was also freshly made and set us up nicely for the day. All the staff were welcoming and very professional throughout our brief stay. They even provided us with a map to help us in our quest to find the nearby fairy steps. Would definitely recommend either for a short stay or for food and will hopefully return.

Beautiful place to stay. Staff were very welcoming and friendly. Food was unexpectedly brilliant - 3 breakfasts in a row were consistently well cooked. I also recommend the Main Menu too. I definitely and highly recommend this place for both food, accommodation and location

We spent a night at the Wheatsheaf, to break the long drive from Scotland to Berkshire. Our room, although not huge, was clean, with crisp, white bed linen on a very comfy bed, and with lovely views of the pretty village church. Although warned about the frequent bell ringing, it did not disturb us in any way. Nice, white towels were provided in the shower room. Lucy and her team couldn't have been more welcoming, efficient, and helpful. It was convenient to be able to enjoy our evening meal in this very popular, old village inn, full of character, and breakfast was freshly cooked and tasty. We would certainly stay here again. The only negative for some, might be the lack of a lift, but staff will happily carry your bag upstairs for you. Oh, and there is a free car park opposite for guests.

I had a wonderful stay at this charming hotel, which perfectly blends historic character with modern comfort. The traditional architecture adds a unique charm, while the updated bathrooms provide a touch of luxury. The bed was exceptionally comfortable. The staff were incredibly warm and welcoming which gave it a home from home feel and the food was outstanding. A perfect choice for anyone looking for a mix of tradition, comfort and a relaxing atmosphere.
