Superb

Liked: We had a small apartment which gave us so much more space than a hotel room. The views were excellent in a nice quiet part of the lakes. There was a very good swimming pool and a gym which I loved. The hotel is also very dog friendly which was the icing on the cake

Pleasant

Nice location....food not worth its...

Liked: Location, layout and pool.
Disliked: Poor acoustic insulations between walls or ceilings; could not nap in afternoon and early morning I cold hear children jumping around and the TV of the neighbour. £21 pounds for a piece of chicken and £19 for two large blobs of potato mash are unjustified thefts...

Very good

Exceptional

Liked: Very good breakfast , room spacious and well equipped
Disliked: Nothing

Nice, but has it's down...

Liked: Overall the Embleton is a nice hotel if you have a dog. The location is beautiful, with plenty of beauty spots near by. The food is very good, albeit a little pricey, but don't mind as long as the quality meets the price which I thought it did.
Disliked: The room we stayed in was on the small side, luckily we only had a small dog with us, so it wasn't a major issue, but still a little snug. The hotel although nice does need a deep clean, the vents in the room were thick with dust and areas around the sauna really needed bleaching.

Passable

Liked: Location
Disliked: Not clean cob web and spider by bed and few dead spiders

Exceptional

An extremely enjoyable experience noticably...

Liked: The staff were excellent! Nathan in particular!! The food was very good and again the staff were very attentitive but never 'intruding'. The lamb shanks dinner we had was probably the best we've ever had. The variety of breakfasts, their quality and the willingness of staff to go that 'extra mile' made it a most enjoyable experience.The pool was used by us and thoroughly enjoyed.The toiletries provided were of a high standard and very much appreciated. In fact we have since contacted the company and purchased some.
Disliked: I suspect that like many such businesses there has been a considerable impact from the so-called pandemic and its many inappropriate responses which are now gradually coming to light. So, the observation that some TLC could be necessary in some areas is, for us, considerably tempered by the knowledge of the conditions imposed upon a wide range of businesses that so clearly undermined their future viability.
