The location was fantastic and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The room was clean snd spacious although we were disappointed it didn’t have a full lengh mirror. Breakfast certainty wasn't worth £30.

Wonderful hotel

We have never met such happy and helpful staff anywhere like this hotel! They are a really great team from reception and dining to cleaning staff. Well done!! A great hotel in the most stunning setting! We have had the perfect stay! Great walks around the lakes and mountain opposite. Literally minutes walk into beautiful Grasmere. Particular thanks to Moses, Aiden and Amber for spoiling us!

Relaxing, good for hikes

Relaxing comfortable place by a large lake, easy access to wonderful hikes in the hills. It’s not terribly busy even in the peak of the summer, it’s away from the crowds.

The property is located in an excellent location, right upon Lake Windermere itself. The staff are all friendly and the breakfast is good. The beds are firm and uncomfortable for me but that might be a personal preference.
