Went to the Lowood hotel for a stay-cation. We travelled from Esk to have lunch and to partake in what the pub had to offer. We were not disappointed, the pub has a unique country charm. The staff were friendly and super efficient, personally I feel they were the best at their job that have seen a very long time. No waiting for a drink or Keno service and good for a chat.
My hat comes off to Bri and Katie, both were outstanding and made everyone feel welcome.
The food was hot and tasty and came out quickly and served with a smile. The atmosphere was great, listening to the local chatter and everyone knew each other.
I spent the afternoon sitting at the bar, which I also hadn\'t done in a long time, very enjoyable. My wife spent some time playing in the large gaming lounge with a good choice of machines. The seating in the hotel was comfortable with a choice of several different types to please everybody, also a couple of old style lounges for really relaxing.
We booked a room in the attached motel, which was well appointed with fridge, microwave and toaster. 56\" TV and a very comfy bed. Also plenty of coffee and tea and biscuits should you crave a hot bevy.
Possibly be a plus if the was some plates and cutlery in the kitchenette.
Thanks to all the staff at the Lowood hotel for a great day and evening. We will be visiting again soon.
