Amazing location in Grasmere. Central to everything in the Lake District. This is our second time staying here and we'll be back again. The breakfast each morning was great. The room was fantastic.

I had a lovely stay at this hotel. The room was clean, cosy and had everything I needed. The staff were very friendly and helpful throughout my visit. The location is perfect — close to shops, restaurants and public transport, yet quiet at night. Breakfast was fresh and varied. A pleasant, comfortable hotel with a warm atmosphere. I’d happily stay again.

Rydal Water

This crystal-clear lake is perfect for a waterside wander. There’s a path that skirts round the banks, winding past William Wordsworth’s old house. Here’s a tip: for the most atmospheric walks, head down just after sunrise, when the mist still hangs above the lake to create an intoxicating air of mystery.

    So lovely to stay somewhere that isn’t part of a big chain. This is a charming and historic place to stay. Watching the badgers feed was very special. Fantastic location next to Rydal water with great walks and swimming spots. The food is great, the rooms are lovely and I would come back in a heartbeat.
