[@Packsalot]

Well done on your review Alan. Sometimes you never know until you visit. We look at the trip advisor and reviews too. They really give a good indicator. Looked like you had a great stay with awesome food and amenities. Beautiful area too. I'm glad you enjoyed your stay and was well pleased. Take care and have a wonderful day.

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Really enjoyed out stay and a place we have passed so many times before over the years, so real nice to finally stop there overnight and sample the food, which was great. Thanks so much for stopping by, cheers Alan

[@RASHMITHEONE]

Awesome video. Beautiful place to visit 👌🏻 keep sharing more videos and have a great day.

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Thank you! You too! Real good of you to watch and take the time to leave a comment, very much appreciated, cheers Alan

[@GENerationXplorers]

Looking exceptionally smart Alan, what a wonderful birthday for the very lovely Mrs Metalman! Great tips re. the curtains and the water! The courses look incredible, darn it, im hungry now! The seating areas all look very welcoming. Great views from the room and a very clean and modern bathroom. Oh nice a fridge, thats always handy to have! In good company there with Buffalo Bill! Walked past this place so many times on several different walks, especially when we used to stay in Rose Cottage In Rosthwaite. Rose Cottage can’t hold a candle to this hotel mind! Last time i visited Lodore Waterfalls it was in winter, absolutely throwing it down with snow on the ground. We had the bench and area to ourselves and sat and drank a hot liquor coffee from a flask whilst taking in the magnificent view! Glad you had a great experience! 👍

[@AlanMETALMAN]

A real nice treat for her and a nice intro to her upcoming birthday, always nice to stop somewhere special and I remember your valentine afternoon tea in Scarborough too, which looked fabulous. Loved the food there, great view as well and I love the fact we were not rushed, could not believe some reviews complained about slow service, who wants to be rushed in and out at a place like that. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@GENerationXplorers]

@@AlanMETALMANoh my days its definitely a place you want to “take it slow ow ow 🎵 “, incredible surrounds. Always looked good walking past/through it or driving past but what a great location. Very well deserved getaway. I might need to watch it again as i forgot to scrutinise Mrs Metalman and see if she was wearing jet jewellery..

[@AlanMETALMAN]

@@GENerationXplorers - as I remember I think she was wearing the jet ring I bought for her a year ago at Whitby but she had lost the back off the jet earrings I also bought her at the same time. I am terrible for noticing things like that and was in trouble for not noticing she was wearing a different dress on the evening, from what she was wearing in the afternoon lol!

[@GENerationXplorers]

@@AlanMETALMAN oh no, i did the same just yesterday, Jill had been looking for her cardi in the morning and i knew where it was. She then proceeded to wear it all day, at the night time i made the mistake of saying “oh you found your cardi!”

[@Wanna.Wander]

What a nice gift from your son! The restaurants sound inspiring, with the 3 courses. The bathroom is huge!! Kind view and amenities. Hi Mrs Metalman💜 oh it’s beautiful as you walk nearby! You wanna go swimming? Mmm the food! What a lovely gift💜 have fun you two lovebirds, cheers

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Thanks so much we both enjoyed it so much there and a place we have always wanted to stop and real nice we were finally able to do it. One day when my lottery numbers come up we will be back again but for an extended stay next time lol. Appreciate you stopping by, cheers Alan

[@Wanna.Wander]

@@AlanMETALMAN I’m glad you had this opportunity 💜 even if ya do t win the lottery. Blessed!

[@testeravecnaima]

wow beautiful and amazing view of this lodore falls hotel and spa and delicious food 😋❤️thanks for the tour 🎉🌹

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Thanks very much for watching and taking the time to leave a comment, real good of you and very much appreciated, cheers Alan

[@S.BodhiFord-gr4pp]

The room looks like a studio apartment. That place is beautiful! Whoever designed the furniture placement and paint schemes was top-shelf. I agree about a powerful hot morning shower...Hahaha! A hairdryer, not needed for me, classic brother. Both of ya'll look great and Happy early Birthday to the birthday girl. I love these hotel reviews.

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Thanks so much for stopping by and the kind words, yes it's actually next week Mrs Metalmans birthday but she always likes to kick off the celebrations nice and early lol. We had a brilliant time at the hotel, could not fault it and would love to go back again some day, cheers Alan

[@JefPersonalVideos]

Beautiful and amazing view of this Lodore falls hotel and spa and delicious food thanks for the tour

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Our pleasure, we had such a great time here and did not want to come home, we enjoyed it so much. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@phillewis3108]

Really glad you both liked it Alan! We've stayed there about a dozen times over the last 25 years, and never had a single real complaint. Only minor niggle was one time I inadvertently signed the wrong bar slip, and instead of paying for a glass of wine and a pint of coke, it was for two bottles of wine and about 10 pints! When we checked out, I noticed it on the bill, and challenged it. They at first suspected we'd had a load of friends join us for lunch, but after a minute, they knocked it off the bill. Phew! The only sadness we have about moving to Cumbria is that it won't make sense to stay here anymore, as it'll only be 20 minutes from our house! I can see a few afternoon teas with those views, though!

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Oh nice one, what a fab place it was to stay and we had such a good time but for us only a place we could go for a very special occasion. I always pay as I go in these places just in case but to be honest, neither one of us is a big drinker but we do like our food and it was superb there, really enjoyed it. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@ervinslens]

This whole place is simply marvelous, food looked simply stunning! Brilliant review bud, just brilliant! 👏👏

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Thanks a ton, real glad you enjoyed it and thanks so much for stopping by. We had the best time there and hoping for a return visit at some point in the future, cheers Alan

[@GillanTravels]

Excellent hotel to stay. The views are stunning. I like your room, very clean and spacious. Nice dining area and foods look great! The surroundings are unbeatable as well! Truly a sight to behold! What a nice treat for Mrs Metalman. Great review Alan!

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Thank you so much 🙂 and Mrs Metalman absolutely loved it there and to be honest I did too, would both love to go back and stay again. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@EventyrsorenDenmark]

[@o.bsoutdoors3871]

We were so hungry after watching this! 😂 😋. The food looked absolutely delicious! What a stunning hotel this is! The location is the winner for us, the path around derwentwater is the same one we walked with Pete's mum to take her for afternoon tea at the Lodore. Although we have never been lucky enough to stay over. The rooms looked fabulous and all of the communal areas beautifully clean (as you say hard to believe the bad reviews). Such a lovely treat for Mrs metalmans birthday🎉. This was a fantastic review Alan, very comprehensive. Thanks for sharing😊👍 Shell and Pete

[@AlanMETALMAN]

We had a great time and Mrs Metalman was buzzing about it when we got home, everything was perfect, even the rain held off till we got back in the hotel. If I ever win the lottery, we will be back and for a lot longer stay as well. Thanks so much for watching, cheers Alan

[@lizadeavina23]

Wonderful video nice sharing good job

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Thank you so much 🙂. We had a great stay here and will a bit of luck will be back for another stay. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@theYogachannel0035]

That roast dinner looked delicious and the desserts - massive Yorkshire pudding

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Food was brilliant Mark, we both really enjoyed it all, fingers crossed we get to go back again one day. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@JenniferLupine]

Great review Alan! Nice to see your room and the dining room too! The food looks amazing- yummy mango and pineapple! 👌 Beautiful walk and grounds at the hotel. Im sure you had a wonderful stay- hi to Mrs. Metalman! 😄🌻🌻🌻

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Thank you kindly and we both had the best of times there, such a nice place and also a place we have wanted to stop in for so long too. If my lottery numbers ever come up, we will be back but for a much longer stay next time. Thanks so much for stopping by, cheers Alan

[@dltreasures]

What a beautiful hotel. Such lovely views and walking areas. The meals looked amazing. Enjoyed the review, very nice Alan and happy birthday to Mrs Metalman.

[@AlanMETALMAN]

It's a week today but she like to start the celebrations early lol. Great stay at the hotel, really enjoyed it and maybe we could stop there again, it really was the best of times there. Thanks so much for stopping by, cheers Alan

[@FloridaFlipFlops]

Like 17 👍 Hello from Naples, Florida. Now, that is one nice hotel! Lovely room, great meals. We enjoyed your review. Thanks so much for sharing, have a great weekend.💯

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Mrs Metalman absolutely loved it there and a nice intro to her upcoming birthday. Could not fault the hotel or the food, we both had a superb stay. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@LetsGoLiz]

That 3 course meals looked amazing! Great room with a great view - the bathroom looks very nice but I hate not having a power shower. Thank you for sharing!

[@AlanMETALMAN]

A hotel we had been wanting to stop in for years so no batter time than Mrs Metalmans special birthday and it was even better than we expected, so we were both super happy with our stay there. Appreciate you stopping by, cheers Alan

[@Simonjburgess]

Enjoyed this look around Lodore Alan... A place I have fancied staying for a while. Thanks for the inside look.

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Glad you enjoyed it and we were the same to be fair, been passed it some many time and always said we would stay there one day. Bit on the pricey side so a place only for a very special occasion. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@giga6137]

Looks like you had a lovely time Alan. The pair of you look really well, the 4* treatment suits you. Mrs. Metalman is glowing! Happy birthday Mrs. Metalman 🎉.

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Just wish we could have stopped longer it was such a lovely place and Mrs Metalman had the best of times, she really enjoyed it there. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@Dominic.Minischetti]

What a wonderful place! Man I would stay there in a heartbeat! Great review brother! Thanks for sharing!

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Thanks for watching Dom, a place we have both wanted to visit for such a long time and so grateful we got the chance to actually stop there, it did not disappoint at all. Appreciate you stopping by, cheers Alan

Another great hotel review... Looks like a lovely place. The two of you are a striking couple my friend. happy Birthday Mrs. Metalman.

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Glad you enjoyed it and thanks so much for the kind words, appreciate you stopping by, cheers Alan

[@christinem3375]

Gosh How, lucky are you getting to stay here for Mrs Metalman's birthday treat ? Its always wonderful when things live up to your expectations for a special occasion and this looked like a dream. Like you and I dare say many others I've driven /walked past so many times, so couldn't wait to see your video for a good look around inside. Interesting to hear about the restaurants & bar meal options 🤔 it it all looked superb and in such beautiful surroundings what more could you want ..... except another stay for Christmas 😃😃 Great video 😊 Happy Birthday Mrs Metalman 🥂🎂🎉

[@AlanMETALMAN]

I know what you mean, sometimes when you really are looking forward to a place it ends up being a bit of a let down but not here, really enjoyed it and the food was great too, so no complains at all from us. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@OlgasBritishFells]

What a delightful place to stay! I'll definitely note it down for myself. Thank you for posting this review, Alan!

[@AlanMETALMAN]

It was so good, we really enjoyed out stay and hopefully you get to stay there at some point too. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@davidsingleton1371]

Been looking forward to this review ...superb.Cheers.

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Thanks very much for watching David and we had a brilliant stay there, really enjoyed it, just wish we were doing it all again this weekend lol, cheers Alan

[@The_Brit_Girls]

Looking very dapper, Mr Metalman! Mrs. Metalman looked so pretty. OMG, your lunch looked fantastic. Good portion sizes too. What an outstanding hotel. The room was very nicely decorated and spacious, with a lovely view. Fabulous views of Derwent Water - what a gorgeous setting. Don't think I'd be one of those people jumping off the bridge into the water! You did a great job reviewing the hotel, Alan. I would love to visit there one day 🤗❤

[@AlanMETALMAN]

I put my hand in that water and it was baltic, so no way would I be going in either lol. The hotel was great, we have always wanted to stay there and it did not disappoint, so would love to stay again but will have to wait for another special occasion or special birthday. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@petercregg7525]

Looks an amazing hotel. We were passing this everyday this week camping a bit further on at seatoller farm. Happy birthday Mrs metalman🎉

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Thanks so much! 😊 and we were the same passing all the time saying one day, just wish we could turn back the clock a week and do it all again. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@DestinationEarth]

Great review!! Looks like an amazing place to stay. I don't know if I've ever stayed at a 4 star hotel before (if you can believe that). Supper looked amazing as perhaps expected. Glad you had the chance to enjoy some time there!

[@AlanMETALMAN]

So are we, especially as we have walked and drove passed it for years and always said "One day". Really enjoyed it but a place only (for us) on a very special occasion, which Mrs Metalmans upcoming birthday sure it. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@stepheneverett6131]

Great review marra. Me and the wife stayed there and loved it .👍

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Good to hear and we had the best of time there, really enjoyed it and the food was great. Could not believe all the negative reviews I read, we found everything to be brilliant. Thanks very much for watching and taking the time to leave a comment, real good of you and very much appreciated, cheers Alan

[@traceycollins7989]

Excellent video Akan. Happy birthday 🎂 to your beautiful wife and hope you both had a fabulous time. I'd love ❤️ to stay there overnight, I've only ever had drinks and snacks on outdoor terrace . Beautiful setting. X

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Thanks very much for watching and your very kind words and we both had the best of times there, we were hoping it was going to be good but turned out to be even better, cheers Alan

Gorgeous place to stay and the food looks Devine. Awesome having a trail there too Beautiful river Glad business is back at the restaraunts Cheers and like

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Thanks so much for stopping by and yes, real good to see these businesses picking up now as it has been real tough for the hospitality sector after Covid, cheers Alan

[@shaun6150]

Looks a great place Alan hope you both had a lovely time 👍

[@AlanMETALMAN]

We both had a brilliant stay that, thanks very much. A real nice place to stop but for us it would always have to be only on a special occasion. Real good of you to watch and comment, cheers Alan

[@atrampinthehills.841]

looks wonderful...Mrs Metalman looks like she loved her birthday

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Another 9 days for the actual day but she likes a nice run in to it and this sure was a great place to start, really enjoyed our stay and could not fault the place to be honest. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@ItStartsWithAStep]

Im impressed with the views of the restaurant ❤ cant beat a sunday roast :) great your son treated you thats so sweet xx i love the idea of so many acres and the waterfalls ❤ the bar looks nice... i love Asian food so id be a happy lass ❤ looks like a nice room.. id love the bath! The views are gorgeous and the walk looks great! A great review x

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Thanks very much for watching and we both had the best of times there, the hotel and the food were brilliant. Not a cheap place to stay so only a place for a very special coactions, so as Mrs Metalman has a very special birthday next week, the perfect venue to kick off the celebrations, cheers Alan

[@NBNatureTrailvan]

Looks absolutely wonderful Alan. Mrs Metalman looks really happy to be there. Beautiful location - fantastic views mate. Would love to stay there. We had a couple of cool hotels in Europe over the last couple of weeks, but I suspect it will be full on campervan life in a few weeks!! Have a good one mate 👍👍👍👍

[@AlanMETALMAN]

A really nice place but (for us) only a place you could afford for a very special occasion but we so enjoyed the stay, it was fabulous. Not Mrs Metalmans birthday for another 9 days yet but a great way to kick off the celebrations. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@MinuteontheMountain]

Great looking location, Alan. The food looked delicious, too.

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Thank you kindly and correct of both, really enjoyed out stay and the food was so nice, great stay. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@Rodaportal]

What an incredible review, Alan! 😍 This Lodore Falls Hotel & Spa looks like an absolute dream destination. The views are simply breathtaking, and the food, oh my, it made my mouth water! 🤤 It's so refreshing to see a place that lives up to its reputation despite a few negative reviews. The room looked so cozy, and I can totally see why Mrs. Metalman had that constant smile on her face. 🥳 The walk around Derwentwater sounds like the perfect way to soak in the beauty of the area. Thanks for taking us on this virtual journey, Alan. Now I'm seriously considering adding this to my bucket list! 🏞🛏🍽🎉

[@AlanMETALMAN]

You sure will enjoy it if you go there, we had a great time, really enjoyed it and fingers crossed we will get to stop there again. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@DAoutdoors]

Wow Alan, what a wonderful hotel. I do hope Mr Metalman had a wonderful birthday. Thank you for sharing your thoughts on the hotel with us. I bet they love the review you have done for them. 😀

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Glad you enjoyed it Dave and her actual birthday is a week tomorrow but she likes a nice early start to the celebrations lol. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@FXWalesAnnaAlf]

Ooo this looked so lovely Alan, a lovely birthday treat for Mrs M and she was smiling all the way through ! Its in a very tranquil place and with a waterfall too ! The view from your lunch table looked gorgeous. The Mizoo Asian restaurant sounds great, we would love that as much as a roast dinner. The view over the fells and Derwentwater were beautiful and Buffalo Bill even stayed there 😃Nice that its on a bus route too. That would be a great wedding venue and like you said would be lovely at Christmas. From what you showed, I agree with you and i would be on the side of the 2000 good reviews 🙂👍~ Anna

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Oh yes, she was a real happy bunny and such a relaxing and very comfortable stay we had too. Over the years the amount of times we have said we would stop here, so it was so nice to actually do it. Fingers crossed we get the change to stay there again, especially at Christmas as I have previously noticed how beautifully lit up it is in the wintertime. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@stevebuttery6757]

Hi Alan, been looking forward to this review and it did not dissappoint at all. A great film and superb detailed review and so glad you gave it such a high review. The food looked superb as did the bedroom and view. Such a lovely treat for Mrs Metalman, you both looked like you had a lovely stay. It is a very good job you turned round on your walk when you did with the heavens opening. The only downside is that residents have to pay an extra £30.00 each to use the spa for 2 hours, the hotel is expensive enough so it is a bit cheeky to ask for more for the spa which is a shame. Looked superb overall mate, another great hotel review, really enjoyed it. Take care

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Totally agree with you Steve and I wanted to film in the Spa and the pool too but when I saw what they wanted and there was a load in as well, all getting their Instagram photos in the infinity pool we did not bother. WE did have a brilliant time mind and even the rain waited till we got back to the hotel but a place (for us) when it is a special occasion, just wish we could afford to go there more often, as we had the best time. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@OutandaboutwithAndy]

The hotel looked excellent, I hope Mrs M had a great birthday weekend.

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Another 9 days to the actual day but she likes an early start to the celebrations lol. To be fair this was such a good hotel, really had a good time and the food was superb too. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@nigelharness9032]

Hi Alan, what a treat for you both, the only thing which would make this better is a station and getting out of a steam locomotive next to the hotel LOL, seriously though superb location love the old stone buildings in the lakes them views whilst dining, lovely birthday present and review cheers nigel

Thanks very much for watching Nigel and it was such a good stay, been wanting to stop there for ages, so real nice to finally do it. PS, I was at Ingleton Waterfall trail this week,, cheers Alan

[@Merritt7278]

Happy birthday to Mrs Metalman, looks a nice hotel. Just come back myself from a 2 day break, staying at Riverside Hotel in Betws y Coed. I highly recommend it. Climbed Snowdon, which was good, but the lakes win hands down. Also, see that hotel you stayed in when doing the derwentwater water. It looks nice but is very pricey. All the best, Alan.

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Always wanted to stop at Betws y Coed, drove through it before but always packed so we never stopped but it always looks so nice. Yes it is pricy at this hotel, so for us, only something for a very special birthday, which Mrs Metalman has coming up in 9 days. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@ms.kayak7seas]

Happy Belated birthday, Mrs. Metalman!!! The hotel room is cozy and stylish, renovated room. I like the bathroom walls. hmmmm spa!!! Wow the sky and mountains are vivid and lively wow 9:04 aweeeee Mrs. Metalman is gorgeous in a dress love it 9:36 Oh pouring rain, but really make a great scene.. wow, love dinner dishes Wonderful honest judgement May I ask about internet situation? Is there a larger room? Thank YOU. Fantastic hotel review! Love it. It will give me a smile while I am coping with the loss of the family member. ciao

[@AlanMETALMAN]

It's not till next week but she always likes to kick off the celebrations nice and early. So sorry to hear about the loss of a family member, always a horrible time, so I am sending our very deepest of condolences over to you. Take care, cheers Alan

[@ms.kayak7seas]

@@AlanMETALMAN she is fabulous!!! Thank you for your kind words that mean a lot to me.

[@ReasontoLiveAdventures]

That is an absolutely gorgeous place. 🤙

[@AlanMETALMAN]

It was, we had a great time and Mrs Metalman has not stopped talking about it since we got back, she really had the best time. Real nice of our son to book us in and we are hoping to get back again in the future at some point. Thanks very much for watching, take care, cheers Alan

[@SalkeldsAdventures]

Great video and review Alan. Lodore Falls looks fantastic ! We were just around the corner climbing Eagle and sergeants crag and managed to miss the rain. I was looking for the beast when we passed. Have you tried Aphrodite hotel ? We’ve stopped a few times and really love it there. We can’t wait to try Lodore too, might spend a night there for our honey moon. Wish Mrs Metalman a Happy Birthday from us ❤ look forward to your next adventure Tony and Bex

[@AlanMETALMAN]

It would be a brilliant pace for a honeymoon and for a wedding to be fair as well, they have a lot of them there and use the conservatory for the wedding party so kept separate from all the other guests. Heard of the Aphrodite before if its the one at Windermere but never stopped there before but something that we have talked about 🤔. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@stubloggs6358]

Oooooo .....I bet that wasn't cheap mate.....Every time we pass there I often think ''if only'' lol. You could not ask for a better location and setting, food looked top-notch mind. The room was plush and big enough for the both of you to walk around without bumping into each other and the lounge,bar, conservatory etc all looked beautiful..........the gardens were also beautifully kept, been to the waterfalls on umpteen occasions so from my point of view no need to show them here. By the way Mrs.Metalman looked splendid in all the photos...........Excellent review Alan, well presented......ATB.....Stu/Wendy. 👍👍 PS made me giggle at the end with all those lovely photographs of your lass looking lovely on her birthday and then you as a younger man in your heavy-metal mode at the end, classic mate...😎😎

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Haha, yes, spoilt the mood a bit lol. Not a cheap place to stop at all Stu, so only (for us) as a very special occasion but we had a real good time, food brilliant as well. If I ever win the lottery, we will be back and for a longer stay lol. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@stubloggs6358]

Cheers Alan........Lovely treat for you both on the Mrs birthday, so well worth it mate.....good luck with the lottery..👍👍

[@54DegreesNorth]

Always enjoy your reviews mate, been past this hotel so menu times and it looks as fabulous inside as it does on the outside, The food looked amazing and then empty plates say enough for me, The views were just amazing shame about the spa but most hotels treat them separate. Thought you might of treated us to a bomb off the bridge mate 😂😂 It’s taken me about 3 hours to watch this start to finish with work getting in the way lol Cheers mate and catch you on the next one

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Haha, tough going when you are at work but yes, same for us, been passed the hotel so many time and we always said we would stop there one day and it did not disappoint at all, we both had a brilliant time. Good of you to stop by, cheers Alan

[@NicoleHikesalot]

I see why this is a place for foodies it looks amazing and the surrounding area is stunning for outdoor activities. Great review Alan ❤

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Thanks for watching Nicole and we had a great stop over at the hotel and a nice walk down to the lake as well. Thankfully we got back just in time before the rainstorm, cheers Alan

[@billygoatfilms7531]

WOW! Alan that was truly amazing! I’ve so been looking forward to this review since I heard that you were going to do one. The whole place looks an outstanding hotel to be in. You certainly covered most aspects of the Lodore but would have liked peek of the spa and infinity pool. The food looked out of this world and with those views over towards the lake and Catbells what more could anybody want. Must have driven past this hotel thousands of times and always thought I might one day stay there. Now its most definitely on my wish list. Many, many thanks for this film and I very rarely ever give a film 6 Stars but this gets it. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

[@AlanMETALMAN]

I was going to go in the Spa as well but it was an additional £30 each for 2 hours and it was packed in the pool so thought I would leave it. To be honest we were having such a good time in the hotel itself, as well as the grounds and the walk to Derwentwater, never gave it a second thought, mind you we just got to the hotel and the heavens absolutely opened and it poured down lol. We were the same about driving passed and always wanted to stop there - not cheap but for a special occasion why not. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

That was a very nice hotel in a great location! The property itself had style to it and so did the rooms. I know in America, hotels like this they call them boutique hotel. I'm not sure if you use the same term in the U.K. It's awesome that you have nothing bad to say about this place! I'm glad your stay was wonderful, and thank you so much for sharing.

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Yes we have the same term in the UK as well Eric and we had a great stay here, one day it would be great to come back and stop longer but I would need a lottery win for that to happen unfortunately. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@Sanniz]

Very nice place to be. And I am sure Mrs Metalman had an awesome birthday celebration there. I loved the outside most. Cause it was stunning no matter where you were. But that mirror! Lol I should have to sit on the table being able do my makeup 😄 Guess Mrs Metalman have better eye sight than me! Only thing mybe I can guess some put negative, if I understood it was a very good hotel. They were mybe more used to bigger room and mybe missed out the boose in the mini-bar? Great review Alan and I hope see more in the future... By the way... the thing you ate with mango... Looked deliscious! Cheers

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Oh that was so nice, we both had it and it was awesome. Not Mrs Metalmans birthday for another 9 days yet but a real good intro to the start of the celebrations and she did have the best of times, she really enjoyed herself. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

Great review- what a fab hotel. Wd definitely consider staying at this hotel if in the area. Tip: change the frame rate on yr camera recording to 25 Frames per Second and banish those pesky flashing lights on some of the internal Shots. Can only give your video a 9 out if 10 as a result.😉

Yeah the default setting is the American one for lighting, which you can change to the UK one, which would stop that flickering on the lights but only if you film 1080p, 4 or 5K, unfortunately I always film at 2.7K, which for whatever reason you cannot change. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

Maybe film your inside shots - where light are on with you mobile camera? Probs won’t notice in the final edit.

Good food okay, loved it there and what a brilliant place to stay for a celebration, we both had the best of times and even the rain waited until we were back into the hotel before it fell lol. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

Looked a really good hotel Alan in every way, and great views over Derwent Water and Cat Bells. Food made me hungry and looked superb. I think you have to take the tripadvisor reviews with caution as some people just love to complain or find fault. It's the same with our videos, most like them but there's a few out there who always find a grievance! Value for money though is the big issue, I'd say a night there is a lovely treat. Must check the prices as Andrea noted the Spa before and she likes that sort of thing. Congrats to Linda on her birthday, I'm sure you've a few more treats in store! Regards, Ashley

We were wanting to do the Spa as well but it was an extra £30 each for 2 hours and the pool looked really busy, so decided to leave it. It's not cheap and (for us) only a place we would go for a very special occasion but we both had the best time, really enjoyed it and with booking Sunday lunch as well, we were there from about 11.30 in the morning till we checked out at 11.00 the next day, so got our moneys worth. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@ashleyjarnold]

i checked the pricing Alan and it was indeed pricey but the odd splurge is ok!! Sunday lunch was a great idea!!

[@cupcakescorner7684]

Beautiful inside and outside and very spacious hotel. Lovely landscapes

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Thanks for visiting, real good of you and we had such a nice stay at this hotel and would love to come back and stay again some day, cheers Alan

[@crowtheri]

Proper meal that Sunday dinner. Complimentary butter with a little bread! Just how it should be ;-)

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Agree 100%, must admit I was real impressed with the whole stay, such a nice hotel, just hope we get to stop there again one day. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@ramblingracheltrailtales]

I have to say, I wouldn’t mind staying there. Lovely 😊 Better than last years one.

I remember the old days when you were trudging the hills with nowt but a bandanna and a rucksack, these days it's all hotels and spa's. You've changed Alan 😂😂 Can you get discounts on a massage? Asking for a friend

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Haha, I wish, only a place you can go on a very special occasion unfortunately as it was nice and the good was brilliant too. If my numbers come out next Saturday we would be able to go back and stop longer. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@theYogachannel0035]
