Beech Hill Hotel  

The friendliness of most of the staff, the decor & comfort of all the communal areas (definitely very good for relaxing!). The ambience of the restaurant & good quality food. The location, & of course the amazing views. Good size bedroom with comfortable bed & sofa. Also facility of the free wi-fi was a plus!

I don't really like to complain because it has by no means put us off returning, but there is only one thing I found that let the Hotel down & that is that the bathroom we had looked a bit shabby & could do with updating...don't know if it was just ours or not!

Beautiful restaurant- staff were very accomodating, friendly and very professional and have very high standards.

Changing facilities for the swimming pool: - very small - No baby changing facilities Parking- not ideal when you have a little one Unable to walk far with the pram

excellent location and very friendly helpful staff. The pool was lovely and clean. Our room had a lakeview which was beautiful.

room decor in need of an update. Broken fittings in bathroom and pool showers.

The food in the hotel restaurant was outstanding, we had an evening meal which was all beautifully cooked and presented. The staff were all very friendly and helpful, and it was well worth paying the extra for a lake view room as it was just gorgeous to look out over. Definitely be stating again.

Lovely relaxing weekend, food brilliant, staff brilliant, location brilliant and the view from our room was outstanding. I would stay again if going to the lakes and would choose the same type of room.

The was no steam room or sauna i think thats what is missing from the pool area.

Location and surrounding scenery

Pool was too cool, and the addition of a sauna or indoor hot tub would have been nice - particularly on rainy days.

Friends asked us to accompany them for a 2 night stay. We had a lovely 'Select' room overlooking Windermere which we understand had only just been refurbished. Plenty of storage and the bed was enormous! Heating was not that good though as radiator around window was shielded by one of those silly radiator covers so hardly any heat came through and we had to request a portable heater. Perhaps also if the floor length curtains ended at above radiator level this would be more prudent! Staff were very pleasant and the bar meals/sandwiches were lovely and fresh.

Hotel does need to fit a lift. I have back and knee problems and did not relish the stairs each time to get to our room. I understand the refurbishment is ongoing until all the rooms are brought up to date so perhaps some space could be found for a lift as some rooms are quite high up? We did not like the fact that albeit this was a special price room, payment was taken from our account a month prior to our visit. Is this really necessary coming from a **** hotel?

The friendliness and patience of the staff. The comfort and relaxing feel of the lounge

Although the bedrooms / bathrooms were clean and tidy they are in need of redecoration

Really surprised with the stunning views and the size of the rooms including whirlpool bath. We found it definitely had the Wow factor although the stairs were quite tiring but didn't spoil our holiday. The pool was lovely and warm with ideal changing facilties. Found the whole experience of staying at Beech Hill really memorable and will definitely book again next time we go to the Lake District. Far cheaper than b & b for the facilities you got!!

Certain ends of the hotel were cooler than others but didn't spoil our stay!

Very pleasant stay anf friendly staff, evening meals expensive. Explained on booking that we were celebrating two special occasions but no special surprises on arrival

Surprised hotel didnot have non alcholic drinks (beer) available and once we raised the issue they promised to have it brought in the following day but it never arrived.

The location of the hotel is superb our room had a great view over looking the lake, close to Bowness and ideal for touring the surrounding areas.

No lift in hotel not very good for disabled people as most bedrooms are below dining and bar areas.Evening dinner expensive means having to go out of hotel at night for meals.
