Haweswater Hotel  

our jacuzzi bath was nice and the tv in the bathroom was a nice extra but unfortunately the reception was very poor so wasnt able to watch anything on it. The bedroom tv wasn't any better either and that was also a shame.

its not really a complaint but i think a mirror in the bedroom somewhere would be useful for ladies using straightning irons or hairdryers!! also it wasn't very nice to see broken chairs on our balcony or the scaffolding, but im guessing that was only a temporary issue.

The staff where so friendly, and the food was amazing. The bed was the biggest we have seen and it was a gorgeous place to stay 10 /10 .

Excellent views if you sat in the lounge area.

Room:- Bed very hard, Views:- Rubbish outside not much of a view at the back, Noise: - I was in a luxury single room and outside was a door leading to the main stairway the noise was quite loud (banging of the door etc..)

The peace and quiet, the views, good food,and mostly excellent service.

No lift - not accessible for disabled people, from outside as well as inside

views were stunning! food was beautiful but deserts were to die for pure heaven on a plate! eating breakfast watching the birds and red squirals feeding was lovely.

Cuisine very good, location superb, staff excellent.

Poor mobile phone reception

Excellent staff. Food great. Room a bit cold but overall much improved!

Radiator not very efficient

nice atmosphere

The location is very nice; however the hotel felt a little "tired" E.G. cracked glass window in our room.

Most dissapoinitng was the lack of welcome as we arrived early evening on the 29/12/11 and there 3 staff standing around the reception and none spoke a word of welcome or made any conversation. Very negative experience. Breakfast was decent and staff more friendly.

Lovely location and building. The hotel is completely cut off from cicilisation which was lovely but nothing laid on by hotel to keep you occupied. I was a little disappointed with the limited menu for the resteraunt in the evening, although the breakfast in the morning was wonderful. We would sit at breakfast watching red squirrels and woodpeckers. That doesnt happen often! Definately would recommend a stay, fantastic value for money.

Only issue was that it was advertised that you had a tv but we didnt have one, which on the evening would have been nice due to being 9miles from nearest town. It meant that I had to talk to him indoors more!

The location

The staff, the hotel can not cater for all guests so some had to drive 4 miles for a meal. The room decor, the rattling windows all night long, the breakfast service. Peeling wallpaper in room. Dead spider next to the bed.

The best thing about haweswater hotel was the location. When we booked this, we didnt do any research. But when we arrived there, we loved it. We booked in for 3 days, but ended up staying 8 days. The beautiful mountain views in the morning, are breathtaking. The peace of getting away from city life. The staff were brilliant. The local people are friendly, and the food was lovely wherever we went. We deffinately will be going back there. An absolutely beautiful location to stay, even though it is a little out of the way. But for a quiet break, its great! We didnt want to leave, but christmas came in the way. Will go back very very soon. Thank you haweswater, and especially to the good hearted staff, who made our stay there special.

The hotel was warm and clean staff were very friendly and helpfully

We didn't get the room we had booked so the bed was smaller than expected breakfast was very average poor tv signal so couldn't watch a programme without interference Strange smell in the hotel corridor
