The staff were fantastic and couldn't have been more helpful. The hotel was well fitted out and the room was very comfortable. The location is great - except when it's at the far end of the village and you've just walked 18 miles over the fells.... :-) But it's worth the extra yards!
Situated in Pooley Bridge and within 6 km of Askham Hall, The Pooley Bridge Inn has a bar, non-smoking rooms, and free WiFi.

The central village location is good and a few minutes walk to the lake and the Ullswater Steamer. One can drive to most places in the Lakes from here. Breakfast was excellent. Large car park (which can get full, however).
Located in Great Strickland, 6 km from Askham Hall, Strickland Arms provides accommodation with a garden, free private parking, a terrace and a restaurant. This 3-star inn offers a bar.

The road (4 miles) to Bampton from Shap is extremely narrow with few passing places here and there and has to be driven with great care because you can meet buses, lorries and farm vehicles. The road (2 miles) from Bampton to Haweswater is equally narrow and has to be driven with great care.

Haweswater Hotel is miles from anywhere so a lot of driving needed , as for all the Lakes I presume. Perfect if you want peace and quiet, great views and wonderful walks. Bampton village itself is very small with few facilities.

The area is quiet, accessed by narrow lanes all worth exploring . The hamlet of Bampton sold the cheapest petroleum for miles. Locals were delightful. Be prepared to travel for 30-50 minutes to reach other key locations in The Lakes.

If like me you are not a seasoned walker take the lower walk at the bottom of the reservoir which snakes around a peninsula and gives unbelievable views. Eat dinner at the Hotel during your stay the food and services are top quality. Weather permitting take time to have a drink on the seats at the front/side of the Hotel and just enjoy the peace.

Excellent base location for walkers who want to get straight out on to the fell. Haweswater and the surrounding hills are a perfect jumping off point for those wanting to join high street and other ranges in the lakes.

Lovely drive to a stunning location.
Lovely drive to a stunning location. Takes you to a peaceful relaxing place in a lovely building. Great staff, beautiful decor and gorgeous suites.
Food was excellent and service was perfect. Enjoyed every moment and wish we had stayed longer x
One of the most amazing places I’ve ever stayed. I loved the art deco design of the hotel. The scenery is breathtaking with great walks nearby. I ate at the brasserie which was fantastic. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. Good breakfast, comfy bed, the Wi-Fi was absolutely fine in my room as I’d read others had issues with this in the past. Hundred percent recommend it, you won’t regret visiting.
The location was incredible, the scenery was stunning, and the Hotel was probably the finest I have ever had the fortune to stay in.
The Art Deco interior was just fantastic, and the attention to detail with regards to the interior design was outstanding. The food was delightful and the staff were so helpful and cheerful. I can't wait to return one year.
The location, the views, the lovely dining room and tasty breakfast.
The wooden staircase and general feeling of history in the hotel was lovely.
The bed was very comfortable and the balcony off our room was lovely to relax with a glass of wine.
All the staff were very friendly and helpful, apart from the older man who was at reception when we arrived.
The location was beautiful, the drive in was a little trick on essentially a single lane road but it was beautiful. The staff were exceptional, as were the meals in the hotel itself. They have a nice little pub area, beautiful benches and tables outside overlooking the loch and the main dinner was delicious with a nice selection of wine.
Could not fault this place in anyway. Food was fabulous, room was beautiful, views from our room and hotel were amazing. Staff helpful and cheerful. In all honesty for a night away and some piece and quiet this is the place to stay. Loved every mionute and will certainly return. Thanks Haweswater Hotel!
Pretty much everything. Lovely hotel in a beautiful spot with art-deco furnishings and amazing food. Also if you’re up for it, there’s an 11 mile walk around the lake to get your appetite for the evening meal. We had a Junior Suite which was lovely and had a side view of the lake. Highly recommend.
Lovely hotel. Great place to stay if you want to get away from it all.
Just be careful and check your SATNAV as it took me down a road with warning signs saying that your vehicle is not insured if you drive on this road. Go via Shap on the A6.
Absolutely amazing place, staff very friendly.
we opted for a Lake view, it was just breathtaking.
Food was delicious, hotel room had everything we wished for.
