Summary
The “stunning view across Morecambe Bay” certainly adds to the magic of this “real gem” of an art deco hotel – “well worth a detour from the motorway” (the A863). Unusually, the food actually lives up to the backdrop, and it remains particularly reputed for its “superb, well balanced afternoon tea”.
Summary
“It would be difficult to think of a better backdrop to a meal” than the “amazing views across Morecambe Bay to the Lake District” at this “iconic” and “very stylish” art deco hotel. Perhaps surprisingly, the food itself is also “lovely” and “not overpriced” – with the “quintessential English afternoon tea” a continuing highlight.
