Hotel a Smardale

“We stayed overnight at The Gateway Inn for a nearby family function and it was absolutely lovely - we wish we could have stayed longer and definitely intend to come back. The staff are friendly and welcoming, the rooms and bar/restaurant are all comfortably and beautifully finished. Our room was impeccably cleaned, furnished beautifully and had lovely amenities included (toiletries and tea/coffee, biscuits). Do pay attention to the hotel’s flag when booking about some rooms being less...

“Bathroom needs more water dripping.”

“LA STRUTTURA SI TROVA IN UN AREA DI SERVIZIO DI UN AUTOSTRADA, E INOLTRE IL BAGNO ERA MOLTO VECCHIO E BRUTTO . PER FORTUNA AVEVAMO UNA BELLA VISTA LAGO DALLA FINESTRA E IL LETTO ERA COMODO”

“The staff was very friendly and helpful. The bar and restaurant were quant with lots of old world atmosphere. Great location with a very nice walk to a pretty waterfall right out of the car park”

“From check in to check out the staff couldn’t have been more helpful. In fact, from when you pull into the car park you get the feeling it’s a special place. The building is a beautifully well maintained old building with some rather stunning modern extras. The room we had was spacious and beautifully presented, with a very comfy bed! Spacious bathroom with walk in shower. The bar area, lounge areas, breakfast and dinner room were clean, tidy, and again had that old style feel but with modern...

“What a terrific spot! The bar was comfy, and cosy; the room clean, and tastefully decorated with a comfy bed, and wonderful view of the viaduct and Whernside. And, the fish & chips - exceptional! For us, the staff made our stay, Will, Courtney, Angela, & Val, couldn't do enough for us, despite a very busy bank holiday weekend. Thank you, we had a great evening and a cracking breakfast to boot.”

“Great old English Tavern!”

“Beautiful inn. The room was decorated lovingly. Clean, comfortable and quiet. Professional staff. Great location for hikes and exploring the lakes. Recommended”

“The staff was very helpful - room was delightful and.located right in the middle of town. The food! The pies were to die for!”

“Very welcoming and comfortable stay at the Queens Head. Lovely old pub area and excellent food. All good quality and good value.”

“There is a reason this is a three star hotel. Despite some pleasant room decor and very helpful staff there are many things that let it down. Exterior is shoddy, rooms look over a busy road or a busy courtyard- both are noisy when windows are open in warm weather. Menu disappointing and limited - there was literally nothing that enticed me. There was also a lack of choice for vegan or even veggie options. Hoovering the bar and restaurant at 7:40am was so loud in our first floor room it may as...

“Nice, old fashion hotel.”

“Clean and comfortable . Warm and friendly . Perfect base for walking in Howgill Fells with our friend . Evening meal excellent .”

“The location is spectacular as was the weather. Kate the manager is exceptional, she had agency staff who were a credit to her but new one had been there 2 hours, a chef walked out and she was cooking as well as running and managing everything including a power cut. The hotel is tired we had a suite and the plugs didn’t work in the bath and shower, the bath was also chipped. If they spent the money and invested in the proper and staff it would be awesome, the garden needed mowing and was...
