Stayed at Churchill's for a weekend in July 06 with my husband. We'd seen a negative review on this site after booking, so arrived with some trepidation!
When booking, we'd been given a choice of one of the un-refurbished rooms for £60ish per night, or a refurbished one at £80 per night. We'd chosen the refurbished room, and it was absolutely fine. The decor is modern and unfussy, rooms were clean and had all the facilities we needed (large shower, TV, plenty of storage space and tea & coffee making facilities).
It's true that check-in takes place in informal surroundings in the bar, and that they wanted payment on arrival before we'd seen the room, but they had written to us beforehand confirming our booking and advising us that this would be the case.
The rooms are above a busy pub, but there was minimal noise at night (we were on the 2nd floor though, so this may be why).
Breakfast was a hearty full English - ideal preparation for outdoor activities in the Lake District.
All in all, we'd recommend it as great value for money in an ideal location.
