The Cuckoo Brow Inn

在英國這次住了這麼多家酒店，唯一踩坑的一家。這家基本上就是一家印度人運營的家庭旅館，不是連鎖酒店，果然就踩了坑。我們一家三口，一個孩子，説房間小住不下，臨時加收了兩晚1200人民幣，但又説沒房，衹換了第二晚的房，為什麼要加收兩晚的費用？住其他的連鎖酒店就沒有這種問題。小的家庭旅館就是會有這種事情，攜程不應該掛牌這樣的旅館。服務跟價格比起來，能訂連鎖酒店的還是訂連鎖酒店吧。設施也非常一般，就是山間小屋，又小又潮。位置的話，距離温德米爾火車站直線距離很近，但這個是障眼法。實際上你過不去，輪渡你要有足夠的時間，還要倒公交，交通非常不便。我們從火車站出來，打車繞湖30分鐘花了400人民幣。

Went for an evening meal here. Really impressed. The family run establishment is friendly, greeting us as we came in. We were seated near the windows, with lovely views. The menu was a great mix of pub classics and a couple Mauritian dishes. I had the Mauritian curry and it was excellent. My only criticism would be the white wine we ordered wasn’t chilled enough. Overall highly recommend if in the area.

We had a fantastic stay @The Cuckoo Brow Inn! A warm welcome, comfortable rooms, great views on the countryside, close to the lake Windemere and an awesome service! Delicious English pub food together with a variety of Mauritius style dishes. We had a family gathering @17 persons, adults & kids for 4 days… They managed to make it all a memorable time for the whole family. Thank you for hosting us! We’ll be back!

The Sunday roast was delicious and very reasonably priced. It also came with a tasty side of cauliflower and broccoli in a cheese sauce. When it arrived it was all well cooked and nice and hot. Beautifully presented - well done chef! The staff were excellent too. We’ll definitely go back and pleased we booked in advance because it was busy but a lovely atmosphere. Thankyou to all the staff

We recently visited this establishment on June 29th at 18:00 after calling ahead to confirm that everything I wanted was on the menu. To my disappointment, upon arrival, I was informed that they had run out of roast potatoes, which are a key component of a traditional Sunday roast. Instead, they offered chips as a substitute. Naturally, I was extremely disappointed and questioned why I wasn't informed about this when I called ahead. I was told that the chef had only just arrived for the 6 PM serving. My immediate response was, "How do you run out of potatoes?" To my surprise, the reply was that it was apparently due to the shape of the potatoes. Just wow. So, chips must be frozen then. This lack of preparation and communication is quite frustrating, especially since I took the time to ensure that my meal would be as expected. A Sunday roast without roast potatoes just doesn't feel right. I hope they can improve their inventory management and communication in the future. I did notice that the owner wasn't present during this visit. The last time we went, we had an amazing food experience and were told he runs a tight ship. I will consider returning, but I hope management reads this to turn a negative experience into a positive change. Kind regards, Grant Carter-Moore

We arrived at 2.30 for lunch after a long walk. As we collected a menu, one of the waiter very abruptly asked what we were doing. We replied that we were hoping to eat lunch. At which he barked NO were not serving food even though the menu clearly said food served till 3pm. We later asked another waiter who confirmed the menus were the old menu, and they no longer served food after 2 pm. Other customers sat in the garden and were also complaining about the rude service and no food.
