    Unfortunately from our room you could hear the music from reception. It did go on quite late, around 11pm and we did ring reception for them to turn it down. It wasn’t overly loud in the reception I think the location of our room was just unfortunate, you could just hear the bass. Apart from that we had no problems.

    The property is modern, the location is really central to bowness and has a bus stop outside. The parking was easy and the breakfast was really good.

    The ironing board was very difficult to get out of the cupboard, because of the height of the hanging bar. Dirty toilet brush

    Beautiful location and very short walk to Bowness. Staff were nice, and the deco in reception and breakfast area were very modern. Room was very hot, however there was a fan provided.

    This was my fault entirely but room was small and being on front of hotel there was a lot of traffic noise. I should have looked more carefully and booked a ' lake view' room and will do so if we visit again.

    Liked hotel, staff were friendly and polite, room was clean, breakfast was excellent. Hotel in a central position and you can walk from hotel

    It's difficult to find fault on anything about Craig Manor. It would be unfair to blame them for the weather!

    I have stayec at this hotel before but dince then tjere has been a substantial refurbishment. The rooms are excellent and the restaurant and outside terrace have amazing views of the lake. The breakfast buffet was first class with a good selection on offer. The staff are welcoming and friendly and the bar area is nicely laid out.

    So glad we found this little gem of a hotel situated just top of the hill of Bowness, it’s perfect walking distance to the town. The room was clean, the staff was very friendly. Breakfast was delicious. We also enjoyed the drinks on the terrace when the rain allowed. We cannot wait to return to this fabulous hotel! As it was our wedding anniversary they us pretty surprise with bottle of wine on arrival it was so lovely
