Having driven past The Villa several times when visiting family in Cumbria. We decided to call for morning coffee. Upon arrival we were shown to a warm cosy beautifully decorated room with comfortable sofas and chairs with a lovely view. We ordered 4 coffees which were brought to us and had planned to move on for lunch somewhere later in the day. However, after perusing the extensive a la carte and set menu we decided to stay for lunch. Best decision ever, after relaxing with our coffees, we were shown to a lovely table in the dining room and after being very spoilt for choice had the most beautiful lunch. The food was piping hot, cooked & seasoned to perfection. Presentation was excellent, the staff very welcoming, friendly and obliging. The hotel and facilities immaculate. We look forward to returning to The Villa next time we are in Cumbria and highly recommend a visit.
