Borrowdale Gates Hotel  

This is our 4th stay at the BG and as always, service, facilities and food were excellent.

The hotel service is discreet, polite and friendly. I have stayed here many times in the past, and its present setup is as good as ever. The location is unbeatable.

Brilliant location and friendly staff

Food excellent though pricey

Excellent 3 night stay, staff very friendly and hotel in a superb location. The sevice and food were first class and we look forward to our next visit. The price was good as well with booking.com

Hotel has such a relaxing atmosphere. The lounge is littered with wee nooks and crannies to sit and relax. The real log and peat fires are so welcoming. However the food is on another level- it is superb! The evening meals are worthy of a mitchelin star. I have never tased such tender pork, which just melted in my mouth. The breakfast was of equal standard, the porridge was lovely and creamy and the poached agg perfect. Loads of choices for breakfast with smoked salmon and scrambled eggs popular, eggs benedict or omlette as well as a full cumbrian breakfast. Location is lovely - bit windy to get to - but the views over the fells and watching the red squirrels was wonderful. Hope to go back very soon.

Bathroom layout was unusual due to the velux windows, tiolet was a bit squashed between shower and wall. Lovely double bed - but room could easily have taken a king size if not 6ft bed. Having a king size bed is very common for most couples and it would have been pleasant to continue this on holiday instead of down sizing into a double. Did get a free upgrade which was very much appreciated.

Beautiful view from room. It was a lovely stay with a free upgrade very welcome.... Lovely relaxing hotel and made to feel very welcome

The excellent, polite, friendly staff, its beautiful location in lovely grounds and beautiful scenery, the superb food which was presented with finesse and many other little but very welcome details, like having complimentary bottles of water, biscuits and small chocolates to go with your tea and coffee, also provided in your room. There is also a small library of DVD's for you to watch if you so wish, also in your room. We had an excellent six night stay and did'nt want to leave!!

Faultless during our stay.

Quiet, comfortable, relaxing hotel with excellent service. Food was excellent and requests outside the menus were catered for with no hesitation. Staff were quiet, efficient and approachable.

Staff and location excellent. I would recommend it to anyone wanting a relaxing break in the Lakes.

No room for improvement that I could see.

A beautifully located hotel with excellent food and comfort. On the pricey side, but worth it.

景色がすばらしく　水回りも満足でした。 部屋も清潔でエレガントなホテル。客層も上品な方々で非常に快適でした。日本語で挨拶していただけて親たち- もうれしかったみたいです。スタッフの教育も行き届いていると思います。

クローゼット内にあるバスルームのファンと連動しているBOXの音がうるさく、係りに電話してファンのスイ- ッチを切ってもらった。 今日はメンテナンスの方が帰ってしまったので明日見てもらう との事であったが、修理の形跡なし。ファンは止めたままだった。 残念である。

Beautiful setting, great staff, excellent food, lovely rooms & very peaceful.

Dinner menu is a bit expensive - £39 pp which with wine worked out around £100 pn. There isn't a bar menu so you can't just have a lighter meal.

Peace and quiet of the location. Friendlyness and excellent support of staff. There were no young screaming children, bliss! Although parents with young children are not discouraged, I do not feel that this is an hotel that is suitable for them from both a price and location perspective. The local area of this part of the Lake District is stunning, much better than Windmere or Ambleside. Keswick is just a few miles down the road, including and excellent Lakeside theatre.

I would like to see a sauna/steam room facility installed as this could be very much appreciated after a days walking.
