We enjoyed our stay from start to finish. We loved our room especially the powerful shower. Upon arrival we had dinner in the restaurant and headed straight to the spa. The spa has amazing facilities, we especially enjoyed the outdoor heated swimming pool. The breakfast was delicious and had on offer a wide variety of different foods. The location of the hotel was superb, it was in the town center but we felt like we really were away from everything. Overall, it was a very relaxing break-away in the Lakes.

Lake District highlights

Beatrix Potter House - Hill Top

Local children's author Beatrix Potter lived in this 17th-century farmhouse, and took inspiration for her stories from the surrounding countryside.

Windermere Lake Cruises

Those wanting to enjoy lakeland views from a different angle should try a steamboat cruise across England's largest lake.

Scafell Pike

With far-reaching views out over the Irish Sea, Scafell Pike is the highest mountain in England.

FAQs about hotels in Lake District

Poetic Artistry at its Best

The inspiration behind many a poet, the serene Lake District has majestic peaks and glorious lakes that form the UK’s largest and most visited national park.

A particular favourite of Wordsworth, Windermere is England’s longest lake and her waters are still plied by historic boats. With a range of luxury Lake District hotels and a Beatrix Potter Museum, the town is connected by cable-operated car ferry to a spot close to Near Sawrey where Miss Potter once lived. Near the lake’s northern tip is popular Ambleside, home of the Stock Ghyll Force waterfall.

A road goes north from here past picturesque Grasmere and Thirlmere lake to Keswick. Set by Derwent Water, this pretty town is overlooked by Skiddaw, while Scafell Pike – England’s highest mountain – is to its south-west. Bassenthwaite lake is north-west, and Glenridding to the east is on the shores of the popular sailing spot of Ullswater, watched over by Helvellyn.

In the Southern Lakes, Coniston is a small village by a lake offering watersports. South-west is the port town of Barrow-in-Furness, and also by the sea is Grange-over-Sands with its long promenade. Kendal is known for its tasty mint cake and has a museum of Lakeland life, as well as a good range of Lake District hotels with pools on Booking.com.

Bowness on Windermere is much livelier and you can see the lake and go on lake ferries from there, whereas Windermere itself is much higher up and does not have direct lake access. A great place to eat and some wonderful cakes is Sweet dreams on Quarry Rigg.

Ambleside is a honey trap, necessary to help with the millions of tourists visiting the lake district just like keswick, windermere etc. There is peace and quiet to be found quite easily outside but do not expect it in the town. Ambleside is now busy 12 months of the year. Traffic is a pain and parking is in short supply. There are good eating places - not all at tourist prices - and more shops selling outdoor gear than you can shake a stick at

A lovely, peaceful town with friendly locals, nice pubs, and great walks nearby. In the town itself, we didn’t find many places where our dog could be off-lead, but there are some nice shops to explore. We stayed at the Grange Hotel — a lovely, dog-friendly hotel with a gorgeous interior and a massive room. On our first night, we arrived late and got a takeaway from Grange Charcoal Grill, which we wouldn’t recommend. On the second night, we ate at The Commodore Inn: my partner’s dish was lovely, but my pizza was overdone. We had breakfast at Tide Café, which was lovely and highly recommended. Everything is in walking distance. Definitley take a walk up to Hampsfell Hospice - you can find the route from Grange on the web - easy to follow.
