Fantastic, fantastic, fantastic, just got back from an overnight stay at the Stags Head, Bowness and can truly say it was great. The room was immaculate with a newly refurbed bathroom that also was immaculate. Had our evening meal in the Staggs as the staff were so pleasant we didnt see the need to go elsewhere (we had also seen a lot of lovely looking meals pass to be given to other customers, they all looked wonderful & we were not disapointed at all the food was fab. After a very comfortable night we woke to a full english breakfast, which again we could not fault, the food and the service was wonderful, we feel like we had a real treat. thankyou to all staff

I had an absouloutely fab weekend at the Stagshead. Rooms a bit dated and tired but can honestly say was clean. Breakfast was gorge but too big too finish !!!!! Staff and management were excellent!! Have stayed in places much worse and paid a lot more !!! 6 of us went last time, 9 of us are going back next month and i cant wait!!!! Excited me !!!!!!!

Please please whatever you do, do not stay at this hotel! Went to our hotel room early to drop off bags, bed wasnt even made but took note of the cigarette burn in the duvet. When we returned later on the bed had been sorted however when we pulled the sheets back we spotted the cigarette burn, the sheets had not been changed! The room was digusting stunk of stale smoke, carpets dirty, bathroom was so bad i didnt even use it. Take my advice stay away!!!!!!!!!!!!

The room was dirty, particularly the bathroom. Not even a shower curtain. Tile grouting filthy as were corners of bath. TV just about worked but the remote control didn't. Breakfast was OK if you like it drenched in fat. There was plenty of it. Tea and coffee both tasted the same !!

It used to be a local of mine over 20yrs ago and I'm sure the carpets and deco was the same. the room we were allocated was above the disco which we weren't told about beforehand and that went on until 2am!!!!! So if you don't mind your bedroom stinking of stale tobacco and a disco on til 2am then this is the place for you!!!!

A FANTASTIC NIGHT OUT WHAT A GOOD LAUGH. STAFF ARE A GREAT AND THE REFURBISHMENT OF THE DOWNSTAITS SECTION IS AMAZING COMPARED TO HOW IT USED TO BE. A REALLY UPTO DATE 2007 BAR. MUSIC FOR EVERY TASTE I WOULD SAY. CAN'T SAY I HAVE EVER STAYED OVER. MOSTLY FOR YOUNG OUT GOING PEOPLE I WOULD SAY WHO ONLY USE THE ROOMS AS A BED AFTER A FAB NIGHT OUT IN BOWNESS. I WOULD SAY THIS REFLECTS IN THE PRICE AFTER ALL IT IS THE LAKE DISTRICT. A GREAT BASE TOO BEEN RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE VILLAGE. CAN'T STRESS ENOUGH TO GET YOURSELF THERE FOR THE NIGHT IT WAS LATE NIGHT CLOSING TOO WHEN WE WENT AND I THINK THEY ARE OPEN 7 NIGHTS A WEEK! BONUS, LETS GO!

i stayed at the stags head in bowness but i would never go back there. the rooms was dirty. when i asked the staff for mor tea,coffee,etc i had to wait nearly a hour i have never had service like this in any outher hotel ive stayed in. i was talking to two of the bar staff one evening and thay was telling me where better to stay on my next visit i will take there advise. when asking to speak to the manager he/she wouldnt talk to me i had to deal with the bar staff. take my advise dont visit the stags head hotel in bowness.

Having visited the Stags Head on numerous occasions in the past, we decided to stay overnight. Although the Bar, Staff and atmosphere were spot on. The room we were allocated was some what poor. The room was very gloom and tired. Although it was clean, it gave the impression of being dirty through its dated decor.

we've not actually stayed in the staggs head but have been in the public bar on many a night and my husband and i have had many a good night there. the entertainment has been good, company has been good and really nice,friendly atmosphere, so who could ask for more? we have not used the disco in the basement so i can't comment on that, but next time we visit we will do.... so watch this space. good nite,god bless, hope to see you in the bar :-) CHEERS
