We stayed at Armathwaite Hall in Keswick with our dogs during a power cut. Was it worth the price?

Hi Andrew and Claire your hotel vlogs are sooo funny with really honest reporting , good work guys x
Glad you like them!❤️❤️
Another great video, I abs love Pablo & Dora 🐶👍 Too expensive for us but nice that you can take the dogs & great to see
Hi, thanks for watching 👍👍
That hotel looked amazing, I would definitely go there for a special occasion, even though I don’t have dogs unfortunately. Thanks for taking the time to review it 😊👌
We would recommend 👍
Clair looked lovely in her dress, and you scrubbed up not to bad either Andy, being working class, and use to cheap caravan holiday parks, I always feel its too grand for the likes of us, always enjoy seeing you two, keep doing what ya doing
Hi. Thank you
It’s not too grand for you guys at all. Get yourself changed into your best mucka and have a visit. Great place 👍
I sincerely hope it wasn't two grand .... 😮
You could also stay at the Ravenstone manor hotel which is Dog friendly, dogs are free if you book direct and they can go everywhere including the dining room, then walk your dogs in Dodd Wood. The Ravenstone is a couple of miles from Armathwaite towards Keswick.
👍👍👍👍
What a great idea for the beans, just bought 2 mini teacups 👍😂
😂😂😂😂
Great video again. Loving both the hotel stays and the motorhome stuff and looking forward to the Spring with new visits.
More to come!
£48 refund… that’s paid for your cute doggies! 🙌
Love the Lakes and love your reviews… keep them going! ❤
Thanks so much! 😊
Good, clear, informative with humour👍🏻
Thanks for watching 👍
Another great vlog
Looks lovely place good value and lovely to take doggy’s
Look forward to more👍🙂
Thanks so much 😊
Just the best most entertaining people your funny informative and you give a brilliant escape for people so well put together you should be very proud of yourselves well don you two
Thankyou so very much for this wonderful comment. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Hi, what a great video. Looked fantastic and good you could take Pablo and Dora, they seemed very excited. The food looked amazing, and bonus you got something back due to the power cut. Look forward to next video. Take care Jan and Willie xx
Helloooo. How are you both ? ❤️❤️👍
Only a slight step up from the Adelphi though 😂
😂😂
Absolutely loved this visit the hotel, grounds and rooms look cozy and clean beautiful decor . Big plus is they are pooch friendly my little schnauzer would love it there . And with your refund it worked out £1 per dog 😂. Is there a dress code for eating in the restaurant? you both looked lovely btw such a pretty dress Clair .
Hi. Thanks for your kind words ❤️
Smart in the restaurant in the evening (no trainers etc) but in the day people had dressing gowns on! There was also another (more casual) restaurant that allowed dogs before 7pm
Oh dressing gowns from the spa I guess 😊 Ha always good to have a choice x @@Stchristopherofatlantis
Hi guys. Loving the hotel reviews, mainly because I trust your judgement after following you for a good while (stalker alert!). Looking forward to more of them very soon (if funds allow).
Hello Kev. Delighted to read this. Hopefully more to come! Stay tuned ❤️👍😎
Wow, such a nice place and delivered, Great watch and those steaks looked yummy X.
Thanks for watching 👀 they were good ones 👍👍👍👍
Nice evaluation of the hotel and surrounding area, fairly well priced too for us mortals. Food seemed a bit expensive but the taste is everything, hey what ? When do we get to see you and Claire in a caravan ? lol.
A nice relaxed weekend and such great surroundings to be calm and peaceful.
Loved the jokes, or nearly Jokes.😏
Hi Chris. How are you? When do you guys get back out on the road?
Bassenthwaite lake the only lake in the lake district all the others are mere's waters and tarns we live in Cockermouth about 4 miles from Armathwaite Hall which is about 7 miles from Keswick (pronounced Kesick )
In a van or motorhome you can overnight park for free at the bottom of Dodd Wood 👍😁
Thanks for sharing
Loving your vlogs , sense of humor is bang on , I bet he needs a lie down after finding out the price of the stay , raise a glass to you both
Hello. Thanks for watching. Have a great day
@ you too , looking forward to another one if your shows, should nominate you for daytime tv !
Absolutely loving the content from you two. The Suite looked great. Food was off the charts, im with Claire on the got be no fat on the steaks or any meat for that matter. Loving the banter and the way you both describe the quality of the stay at the hotel. Always nice having good treatment by the staff of the hotel. Looking forward to your next vlogs content.
Thankyou so much for this 👍👍❤️❤️
Hello 👋 guys what an awesome place to stay and you've got your lovely doggies with you aswell 👍..another brilliant vlog and funny ( drinking beens from a cup 😂😂 )
❤ Phil/Tina x
Thanks so much 😊
"I'm absolutely full, I couldn't eat another thing ..." jump cut to pudding 😂😂😂
I guessed over £400 for the hotel, but with meal costs included. Would definitely make use of the spa and going from cold to an outdoor hot tub, well, you'd "feel the benefit" 😅
The hotel did well to keep the power on at least and what a great gesture to knock off some of the bill.
Great video as always, variety keeps people interested and for both of you too. I'm off to watch the Adelphi one now then 🤞🏻
Hi. How are you? Andy says he had room for a small pudding 😂😂😂 thanks for watching 👍👍
@@Stchristopherofatlantis Hello, I'm good thanks, getting some good ideas of places to visit 😁 Always room for a pudding, sometimes followed by "I wish I hadn't had that" 😔 😀
What a fabulous hotel & so nice to be able to take the pooches. I had a fabulous Christmas meal recently with some ex-colleague s and my trifle was served in a tea cup 😀
This made me laugh ☕️
Hi.
Andrew, And.
Claire. Lovely. video. It's nice to see a place where dogs can go.
Glad you enjoyed it
Fantastic vlog....I was almost there with you 😅 just wondered why the lightshade was pixilated.....did you not want us to see it? 😳🤣😂 xx
Hello. How are you guys?
We didn’t pixilate it? In the room do you mean?
Great vlog, what a beautiful place nice to see dog friendly places.
Hello Sue. Hope you’re ok xxxx
Bassenthwaite Lake is the only actual lake in the lake district, the others being Meres or waters :)
👍👍
I'm so glad you are enjoying cumbria it is a beautiful place. you're not far from us safe travels
It really is! Loving it 👍👍
😊 another fantastic video love the dog friendly elements ❤
Thank you! 😊
Alan partridge was offered a cup of beans in an episode by a petrol pump attendant. He gave a quizical look and the attendant said “ would you like a sausage with that “ ?
So you must be in good company 😂😂
He is so funny!
Awesome vlog. So pleased you enjoyed it. It looks a wonderful place. I wonder if you could fish the lake?
I think for what is offered to you, it was well worth the money. Let’s face it, nothing is cheap this day and age, but for the area you were in and the content of what’s available, you were onto a Winner. Excellent meal also Well done to you both. You deserve it. Until next time. Stay safe. Enjoy. 🚐💨💨
Hi. Ohh not sure about the lake, but definitely a great hotel and location 👍
Have a great day
Brilliant vlog and it looked gorgeous 😊
Thank you!! 😊
Great vlog yet again. Place looked great and the price was a real surprise , thought it would be more a d meal did get my mouth watering 😂. Did you win the lottery over Christmas lol😁👍👍
Hi. Thanks for watching. If we had won lottery we would be in the Bahamas 😂😂😂😂🥳
Great review! This is our kind of place. Part of the reason we got into caravanning was to be able to take our dog Luna with us as we go away. It is great when you can take your dog to a hotel. We have been to some hotels which allow dogs and you get a very tired room and you can’t upgrade . This hotel ticked all the boxes and will be on our list to stay. Thanks again for a brilliant review.
All the best Trev and Sue.😊
Hi Trev and Sue
Hope you’re having a good week. Would recommend this place to take lovely Luna. We enjoyed it 👍👍👍👍❤️
Loved all of your Lakes vlogs , Same as you say not everybody has a motorhome. We often try different Hotels and cottages around Keswick and surrounding areas. Keep up the great content. :)❤xx
Glad you like them and thanks for watching. Have a great day 👍
Great vlog again thankyou for showing such a beautiful place.
Both of you are just down to earth lovely people, love watching you guys x
Thanks so much 😊
Great to see you two chilling - loved the Silver teapot. at breakfast same as “at home “ 😂😂😂. - I feel you two are lining up to take over for the next series of “The Hotel Inspectors” 😂😂😂 👍😄
We would love that…. Now there’s an idea 😂😂
What a crackin find for taking the dogs with you. Dinner looked quality to, reasonable prices, me and fiona were laughing when Andrew said he was stuffed and up pops pudding 👍😁, we guessed well above the price you guy's got it for, great value 👍, have a great rest of the week cheers ❤
Hello Gary and Fiona
Thanks for watching and we wish you a fantastic week ❤️👍❤️👍
Your videos are so funny love watching you two. Hotel looked amazing. Is the price per night. Xx
Yes that was for the 1 night for the suite including breakfast 👍👍
@ brilliant
Great vlog... thank you for taking us along 😊❤
Glad you enjoyed
I enjoyed this one immensely, looks a lovely place. Great for the dogs too, Mr Wilson and Betty would love to bark there at patrons passing the doors ! ❤
Glad you enjoyed it. Hope you guys are ok x
@ good thanks, sick of winter weather !
Nice place!!! Thank you for taking us along with you. And I must say, don’t you two scrub up well! You looked fabulous 😊 A most enjoyable vlog x
😊 thank you
The hotel looked lovely and as per usual some great banter from you two . If you visit in the summer you may see osprey catching fish in Bassenthwaite Lake and it
is a Lake and not a water or mere ( don’t you know 😂) Still too expensive for us but great for a special occasion and personally prefer North Lakes to Windermere and this hotel and grounds to the last one . Both not a patch on the Adelphi though 🤣 Are you going to do a self catering holiday at all ? Say near a beach or Scottish loch ? Still think you should do some wild camping in the motorhome 👍.By the way love watching the dogs ears bobbing up and down on their walk , so cute 🥰 xx
Hi. How are you guys? Hope you are well
We loved this location and the hotel had a great vibe to it, we wanted to stay longer!
Wild camp = watch this space 😎🤷♀️❤️
Have a great week xxx
Hi you guys. Fantastic vid as usual. Going back a couple of weeks you were offered a stay at Bryn Gloch campsite in Snowdonia, North Wales. You must do it as the views just from the site are breath taking. Lovely clean and friendly too. We've been six times now and highly recommend it. Keep up the good work. Have you got that bike started yet? Tracey n Steve👍
Hi Tracey and Steve, Sounds fabulous and Thankyou for this recommendation 👍 will take a look
Andrew and Claire (Pablo & Dora), Great videos and a wonderful sense of humour, you have kept me entertained for hours. I'm not a motorhomer but you have given me lots of ideas for places to visit, keep it up, the videos that is!
Hello. Glad you enjoy watching our videos, we love to make them and we are trying to show a variety of different things 👍👍
Hello Andrew and Claire, I've watched a few of your videos in the past being a motorhomer, although technically it isn't cos it's an Adria twin but this last month we've been in Goa for some winter sun and I've watched lots of your videos on thebeach and really enjoyed them, very informative but very funny too. In Goa as well there's millions of Royal Enfields which Andrew would love👌If ever you visit Cleethorpes get in touch and I'll show you the best bits, shouldn't take more than half hour😂 keep doing what you do, love it 👍
Hi. Thanks for watching
Goa winter sun sounds brilliant.
We went to Cleethorpes for the food festival last summer and loved it (did you see the vid?) We will return soon as it’s close to us and we love the beach 👍☀️
I loved your video in Liverpool. The people have no idea what they are missing. I live across the pond and love all the different places your taking me.
Thanks so much for watching 👍👍
I’ll will watch the video tonight x
Loved it, suite looked amazing and really well priced. Keep the vlogs coming.
Thank you! Will do!
Great vlog. Only thing was, beans in cup. And chips in a tin. Apart from that I enjoyed my stay, with the dogs and yourselves. 😂😂😂😂😂👍👍
Hello Gordon, thanks for this 😂👍😂😂😂😂
Brilliant vlog - loved seeing you stay at the hotel with the doggies - so amazing it’s so doggy friendly!! Thank you so much for a great watch - love the mix of content xxxx
Glad you enjoyed it and a massive thanks for watching 👍👍👍👍
A local hotel to us and I've always enjoyed going there. So glad you enjoyed it too! 👍
So good! Loved it 👍👍
Loved this guys, thank you for making & sharing, great to see dogs so welcome. Beans in a cup though, OMG ❤
Glad you enjoyed it ❤️
Have you ever had beans in a tea cup 😂😂😂😂😂
@@Stchristopherofatlantis No, we've not, Andy drinking beans though ! Also, chips in a pot too ! That aside, beautiful place, glad you enjoyed.
Didn't know you grew baked beans in Cumbria!
😂😂
Should have stayed about half a mile up the road at Castle Inn...less money but just as good....dog friendly too.
👍👍
Excellent video and venue. Although it could prove expensive as my wife says that we will definitely be giving it a go!
Please do! Go for it and let us know how you get on 👍👍
What a great video and review. Brilliant. You've nailed it again. Honestly, well thought out opinions although Dora stole the show again for me 😍 xx
Glad you enjoyed it! She is cheeky! 🤩
That looked an amazing place!! Thanks for showing it xx
Thanks for watching
Nice hotel and great it dog friendly the food looked amazing and the price was decent well enjoyed thanks for sharing 👍
Thanks for watching Diane 👍
I don't know how that fire effect worked, but if it was only blue and green, then the red part of the colour mix may have been at fault, eg you can make all colours from red, green and blue as in a colour tv tube they had 3 guns R G B in the neck of the tube.
Gaz Yorkshire.
Hi Gaz, Thanks for watching 👍👍👍👍
Great review. It has made us want to take our 3 chihuahuas there. Looks great for walks
It’s brilliant. We enjoyed it 👍👍👍
Enjoyed this a lot! And Claire you look gorgeous in that dress x
Thank you so much!!☺️
@ 😘
Very nice guys. What a treat. I think we may have to treat ourselves. Living the dream. Only thing is ,you’re showing us how the “other half “ live and we want some of the same 😂❤.
Hello. How are you guys? Have a great week
We’re great thanks for asking. Have a great week. 😉
That was a great video, you both looked great going for dinner, and Clare your dress looked very elegant and also pretty. I thought the price seemed very fair considering you had the roominess of a suite,, if you wanted privacy whilst relaxing over a few days rather than sitting in a bar or such it would make a big difference. It may even help if dogs have a nigh-time routine. It certainly seemed a lovely place although perhapsu little higher division between the terraces may be preferable. It was nice to see a review video which did not feel like being on a constant safari, hunting for every insect or speck of dirt. Thank you so much I look forward to the next.
Hello. A big thank you for watching
Have a great day
I think the onions were figs lol 😂❤
Looked like a massive bowl of pickled onions 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
You can go to the poshest place, but some types of people can still be noisy in the wee hours of the morning.
Gaz Yorkshire.
👍👍
Loving the hotel vlogs your 2,👍👍👍
Glad you like them!❤️
Great video love your proper yorkshire reviews keep it up.
Hi. Many thanks 👍👍👍👍
Brilliant video guy's. Well done.👍
Thanks 👍
Wow what an amazing place 🎉 the food looked amazing ❤
It was fab! 👍
On the old part of the land, different mudlarking people have found old pottery of when it was built
Ohh sounds ace
Definitely a lovely place xx
It really is!
@ obviously the beans in a tea cup made it 😂❤️
😂😂😂😂
Beautiful hotel and suite. Nice to see you’ve washed your hair Claire 😂 have to say like your top Claire. Bassenthwaite water is beautiful not sure about the terrace area best have your clothes on 😮. Andrew you’re on form some cracking but no sack jokes. Brilliant 🤩 WOW that pudding 🎉beans in a t cup love it 🥰. Good Price 🎉 fantastic vlog love you ❤
Hello dearest Christine
How are you? Cracking hotel. Have a great week 👍👍 Mwah x
Bassenthwaite..... lovely view from your suite.
😂😂👍👍
Bassenthwaite Lake - the only actual LAKE in the LAKE District. All the others are either 'Meres' (as in Windermere) or 'Waters' (as in Derwent Water).
A factoid that we picked up from endlessly experiencing the Richard E. Grant voiceover on the 599 open top bus, of which much use was made when we stayed in a static at a holiday park near Windermere in May last year.
(I hesitate to mention the brand of the park, but it rhymes with "Bark Bean...." 😶
Oh do you mean the Lark Lean? 😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@Stchristopherofatlantisthe very same 😅
How good to be able to take the hounds.
My son proposed to his girlfriend New Years Eve, this would be ideal for them to get wed, then we can bring the dogs ( bestman & bridesmaid)!!!!
We loved it. Great service 10/10, awesome views and fabulous accommodation 👍👍
Love this kind of video 😊
Glad you liked it!!❤️❤️❤️❤️
Loving the mix of content hotel looked really nice 👍
Glad you enjoyed it Ray 👍❤️
You are great to watch love the humour ❤😊
Love to read this Colin. Thankyou ❤️
Nice vlog we've stayed in some posh hotels on occasions still prefer the caravan. Thanks for showing us around.
Thanks for watching!
Lack of Devir games in any list. Some good games in the last couple of years IMHO. Are they struggling to break in to the more popular producers?
👍👍
Great video. We're always on the lookout for dog friendly places to stay. Not sure our dog would be ok left in the room on her own. Would we not be able to have an evening meal there with our dog? She sits quietly under the table but I appreciate that hotels have restricted areas for dogs. Cheers.
Hello. Fab place. Yes dogs are allowed to eat before 7pm 👍👍
Thanks!@@Stchristopherofatlantis
Nice hotel and great for the dogs
awesome place 👍👍
Would have been nice if there was a gate in the outside wall so you could take the dogs for a walk without going through the hotel. Hotel looked too classy for a Barnsley Lad. Looked amazing.
😂😂👍👍
Another great video, for some reason after watching it I was starving! Also Clair said she didn't like fat and lumpy things, so how come...........😅
😂😂 thanks for watching
Best thing on telly!
Love this. THANK YOU
There was a lot of meat on the platter.It looked very nice there.very good for dogs.
Delicious food 👍👍
Enjoyable vlog.😊
Thankyou
Great content as usual
Glad you think so!
Excellent video thank you
Glad you enjoyed it
All those motorbikes and tech and the poor lass as never been for a spa. Come on treat the woman in your life 😂
😂😂
Nice place indeed
It sure is
There is a wildlife park next to the hotel.
Rough as a bears what ? I didn't quite catch that 🤔🤔🤭
🐻 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Whatever content you make it’s a pleasure to watch,especially as you’re from my hometown,well one of you is lol
Do you mean the mighty Sheffield 🦉
Next up ( soon hopefully ) Biker friendly hotels etc....?!
Good shout 👍👍
Not keen on the hotel Vlogs.
I watch your channel for camper van life.
Perhaps come down south in your van. 👍
Down south sounds fabulous
Sorry don’t be offended by my comment.
Just prefer camper van Vlogs.
But you Channel is excellent 👌🏼
Really look forward to your Vlogs.
Keep up the good work 🙏
That's very nice and not a bad price
Thank you 👍👍👍👍
Alan partridge was offered a cup of beans in an episode by a petrol pump attendant. He gave a quizical look and the attendant said “ would you like a sausage with that “ ?
So you must be in good company 😂😂
😂
what a fabulous place to stay ...were going to look at staying i said at least weve no dogs ...the reply was well maybe just one ...the comment to me was a bit wooooof
We certainly recommend 👍👍👍
Sorry to say we laughed at that 😂😂
@Stchristopherofatlantis weve both really enjoyed this vlog .thanks for the lakes month
Hellooooo Guy's,
What a fantastic place to stay and lovely that you can take the dogs 😊.
But, beans in a cup 😵💫, that's a full refund 😅.
Lovely grounds and suite, summer would be lovely, maybe a little more privacy on the outdoor seating though 😮.
As a fellow Yorkshire couple not sure we can justify that cost, no matter how nice for one night, sorry.
Take care and travel safe 🙏.
Paul and Joanne 👍 ❤️ X
Hello Paul and Joanne
Really cracking place and would recommend if you ever fancy a treat👍👍
Hope you are both ok xxxx
