Amazing Atmosphere!

“Our party of ten dined at The Farmers and were completely blown away by the food and decor. I recommend the Garlic Chilli Prawns and Garlic Mushrooms as starters; both were bursting with flavor. The Beef Fillet steak was tender and cooked perfectly to our desired medium-rare. Don't miss the Homemade Sticky Toffee for dessert - it was incredibly light and delicious. The staff were attentive and ensured our experience was enjoyable.” view full review

I had a generally pleasant stay, enjoying the lovely village location. though there were a few drawbacks. The room was nice but had a damp smell that was off-putting. The dining experience was mostly enjoyable, but minor details could be improved for a more outstanding visit.

My visit to The Farmers Ulverston was a mixed bag. The food was truly lovely, and the atmosphere had a cozy charm. However, the service was a letdown, particularly with drink orders and billing, which detracted from an otherwise enjoyable experience.

My visit to The Farmers in Ulverston was a mixed experience. While the atmosphere was warm and inviting, the food quality was inconsistent. I enjoyed the pizza, but the burger didn’t meet expectations, and the service felt a bit lacking at times.

I found the pizza freshly made and very hot, while the burger was disappointing—dry and served with chips that were too hard. The quality varied greatly.

I had a fantastic experience at The Farmers Ulverston during my stay. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and even though the prices were a bit high, the quality of the food definitely made it worth it. However, the noise level was a bit overwhelming, which made it hard to have a conversation at times.

I had a decent stay at The Farmers Ulverston, where the cottages were well-equipped, cozy, and in a perfect location. However, the check-in and check-out process was frustratingly inefficient, with long queues at the bar. The staff, while mostly pleasant, could improve their communication, especially during these busy times.
