Absolutely lovely hotel. Great rooms and bar/ restaurant area. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly. The fact that there was a beautiful woodland walk from the hotel was a bonus. Will definitely be returning.

8/10 Very good

lovely stay at the wild boar. The room was clean and nice and bright. Extremely comfy massive bed. nice decor. food was excellent. very friendly efficient staff The only criticism I would have is that the door sort of dropped when it was opened and you had to lift it up to shut it and the shower curtain needed changing. i would stay again but probably upgrade my room option

Too far to walk to Bowness. Lovely breakfast. Situated near some woods which are nice to walk in. Not pleased with £12 parking charge

Very nice stay

Had a really good stay. Taps on the sink needed attention as they were loose. The room was very comfortable. Food excellent. Staff are very good and attentive. Made to feel very welcome. Only thing not pleased about was the parking charge. Did not have this on our last visit only a couple of weeks ago

The wild boar

The Hotel was good , nice and clean , the staff was very friendly and helpful, the breakfast was lovely with plenty of options to have, The woods have nice paths to walk along and have tasks for you to do along the way , a bit like a fitness program with chin up pole , and steps but they are in a bad state and either need removing or investing in , there’s archery and clay shooting site but again it looks run down like it’s not been used for years , all in all our stay was great and would recommend
David, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The stand-out features were definitely the level of service and quality of food. The breakfasts were delicious - the best of any hotel we've stayed in. The experience was let down slightly by the accommodation, which wasn't by any means a five-star room. There were signs of mould around the windows, the bathroom hadn't been thoroughly cleaned prior to our arrival, and the general decor was faded and worn. This was a real shame, since the main guest areas of the hotel were immaculately presented.

Alright, not very clean.

An OK place to stay for a night. Bed comfy enough, good blackout curtains, quiet location although noise from other rooms travelled easily. Unfortunately the bathroom wasn't very clean - hairs and black mould in the bath and dead bugs squished into the blind. There was also a dried bogey stuck to the bedside table. Mentioned at reception on checkout so hopefully will be improved for future guests. Breakfast was fine.

Staff were all excellent and very welcoming. Food esp the breakfast was superb. Room was far to hot - had to have all windows open and radiators off - can not be good for the enviroment! Found a few (10 ish) clothes moths in the room, so had to hot wash all clothes on return home. This was reported and I would like feedback on the actions of the hotel

8/10 Very good

This is the 3 rd time we have stayed at the Wild Boar and we decided to Upgrade our room this time . Unfortunately the shower had not be cleaned and had cobwebs hanging from It clearly Indicating it had not been cleaned throughly for some time . All staff were friendly and the meals are fantastic unfortunately the standard of cleanliness of the shower somewhat tarnished the stay as the room upgrade was significantly more expensive than the standard rooms.
