Staff were very helpful and property was clean and tidy, however the heating wasn't working in the room and it was very cold. Property is also a bit dated. Very good value for money overall.

We have stayed at Shap Wells many times, this visit proved as good as previous ones. We had a nice comfortable room and a very good evening meal, the following morning we had a very good breakfast. Before leaving we walked along the stream to see the red squirrels and they didn't disappoint, several were running around. Shap Wells has a great location, comfortable rooms, good food and friendly staff.
