Seacote Hotel

"Bel posto."

The Manor Inn, St Bees

"We stayed for 4 nights whilst in the area and had a mixed bag of feelings about this establishment. Whilst the staff are excellent, friendly and very helpful, they are somewhat let down by the establishment even though "it is an old building" (the managers excuse for many things). We initially put in room 6 which has a emergency exit sign above the door that illuminates the room throughout the night bright green, so don't expect to get a good night's sleep unless you've brought an eye mask. But when they could they transferred us to another room that was much better and we would have slept soundly throughout the night but were disturbed by a fire alarm on both remaining nights, the first at 2am without any staff attendance for over 40 minutes. We even had to call the fire brigade so that the alarm could checked out. But back to more enjoyable experiences of our stay. We had dinner during our stay and it was good to see that the menu was properly labelled showing where things were dairy-free, as I am dairy intolerant. The food was very nice and well presented. It arrived in a timely manner, nice and hot, and tasted really good. Breakfast, which was included in the room rate, was the highlight of our stay as we got to meet Katie who served us our breakfasts. She is an absolute legend and she truly is the best thing about the Manor. Even after our disturbed night due to the fire alarm she managed to brighten up our moods and day, and set us off with a spring in our step. I would say though all the staff were very approachable and helpful. We were in the area house hunting and they were able to give us information about the different areas that would have taken us ages to find out for ourselves. So I really would like to say thank you to all of them."
