Borrowdale Hotel..not for me.

Liked: I had room 52 and yes you could see hills, a few. The food good but nothing special. Extremely helpful manager.
Disliked: The bedroom decor is dated. The bathroom is ok but I hate shower heads that are fixed to the wall. Very slow service at breakfast at times. No-one attending the reception.
