All the accommodation is behind the hotel in a separate building and we liked this because you could come and go as you pleased without having to go through the hotel. We were very pleased with the spacious top floor room we were allocated. It was spotlessly clean with a very comfortable bed and lots of wardrobe and drawer space as well as 2 comfortable chairs. A full sized kettle and also a good hairdryer were provided and ample tea and coffee sachets. The only slight problem we had was a noisy fan in the bathroom which did not switch off with the light. We realised by our second night that the door also had to be completely closed to switch off the fan so we got a better nights sleep the next day. The restaurant in The County is lovely and we dined there on Saturday night, my scampi was delicious and my husband enjoyed his gammon. Table service and social distancing was very good. We also had a nice breakfast on Sunday morning in The County Coffee Shop which was very tasty and good value. All the staff at The County are very friendly and helpful and the hotel is in a very good area, ideal for visiting the Lakes or nearby Morecambe where we enjoyed visiting. We did have a problem with the noise of traffic when we had the windows open but it did go quiet at night when the windows were closed and we slept well once we had sorted the fan out.

It had been about 10 years since our last visit, but we were pleasantly surprised this time. It was quiet, with us being the only customers, so there wasn't much of an atmosphere. However, we were just looking for a drink, and we were happy with what we got. The staff were friendly and cheerful, and they had Covid measures in place. It exceeded our expectations, so we would definitely come back again.
