Stayed two nights on a kgb deal Tuesday & Wednesday. Good value.
This is a good 3 star hotel. Quite old, but is lovely with lots of character throughout although a bit tired in places.
Bedroom was enormous with good quality decor, bathroom large as well.
We didn`t eat in the restaurant as we thought it was expensive, but the bar snacks and drinks were really good and reasonable. Our only negative was the restaurant and bar area lacked atmosphere but if more people used them perhaps this may be better.
All the staff were very friendly and helpful.
Hotel ideally placed for west side of the Lakes, the coast, Cockermouth etc.
Wastwater was wonderful, middle of January, snow on the hills, saw one car, had the place to ourselves. Bet this doesn`t happen often!!
On the way to the hotel drove over Wrynose Pass & Hard Knott Pass. FANTASTIC.
but really hairy. Not sure what you do if something comes the other way.
We had a really lovely break

I have just attended my sons wedding reception at this hotel can I just say the day was perfect in every way quite a few of the family and friends of both bride and groom stayed overnight the accommodation could not be faulted Victoria and her staff are a credit to the hotel nothing was any trouble from day one when the venue was chosen to the actual day they work tirelessly and couldn't make you feel any more at home the food is absolutely beautiful my thanks to the chef the rooms where spacious and comfortable and the breakfast next morning lovely quite a selection not living to far away i have had the privilege of having a meal at the hotel with friends I would certainly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a venue for a wedding we will be back again many thanks again for making my sons wedding day a beautiful day and evening to remember.

Stayed her with my wife for an early birthday treat and as usual we couldn't fault the service or friendliness of the staff!! Disappointed to see Debra had left however Victoria an Co were superb! How this hotel isn't 5 Stars I'll never know?! Highly recommended and we'll be back again!

You may not be mad about the idea of a break in the shadow of a nuclear power station, but I can assure you The Sella Park Hotel gave us a warm glow of contentment. Set in rolling lawns and apple orchard beside a bubbling crystal-clear river, this historic building was there hundreds of years before Windscale and will still be there long after Sellafield has been decommissioned.

We stayed for two nights with our dogs and ate in the restaurant each evening. The food was of a high standard, but not perfect. I was disappointed by the gravadlax salmon, which was tough but delighted by the rump of lamb and my husband loved the duck breast. The menu was short but had sufficient range for most tastes.

The staff, especially Richard, Kieren and Simon were extremely helpful and freindly and made us feel very welcome.

We had Room 11 which was on the top floor and overlooked the front of the hotel. It was a great size, with full-sized bathroom and large comfy bed. The decor in the bathroom was a little tired in places and was carpetted, which I do not like in a bathroom, but we had no complaints about cleanliness. We loved the exposed beams and stone mullions and were particularly charmed by the ancient woodwork of the staircase leading up to our room.

Throughout our stay we were warm and relaxed. Whether sitting in the cosy lounge with a beer and a crossword, or walking the dogs by the river in the private gardens, we found peace and comfort at this hotel.

We visited nearby Muncaster Castle and walked along the beach at Seascale. Ravenglass is another quaint village with beach just seven miles along the coast. Even in the blustery December weather we found plenty of interest and beauty in the surrounding area.

Dogs are welcome by arrangement at a modest extra charge. It was very quiet while we were there and our poodles were allowed in the lounge, but that may not always be the case. Check when booking.

Well worth a visit but it is a remote location, so be prepared for a drive.
