Patterdale Hotel  

We liked everything about the hotel,it was clean food good and was handy for most places we wanted to go. The only thing that let it down for us, was there was no shower in the bathroom,so made it hard to wash our hair at night.

We had a comfortable stay. Full corse dinner was a bit too heavy for us, but it was really delicious. The hotel is a bit busy with many guests. But the staffs were all attentive and helpful.

Room was not sound proof. We could hear people walking, floor board creaking through the door. But it was not a big issue for us.

Excellent value for money. For the price we paid we didnt have too high expectations but were pleasantly surprised. Efficent friendly staff, very clean and good food. The bedroomms were basic but had everything you need even flatscreen tv with freeview. The meals while not gormet cuisine were tasty & efficently served. We have paid a lot more in the past for inferior accomodation. Also we go to the Lake District for the walking & didnt need to move our car in the 3 days we stayed as there are loads of varied walks from the door. The views from the hotel are outstanding & it is worth paying the extra £10 for a room facing the front. We will definatly book this hotel again.

The bed was too soft for our taste & the towels a bit scratchy & worn but these were very minor problems.

The staff where excellent very friendly always had a smile that goes a long way in making you feel comfortable when you stay somewhere.

My only problem was the price of drinks at the bar was very expensive.

Friendly efficient staff. Great location for walks and drives around the Lakes.Liked the restaurant. Good,plentiful food. Good bathroom with powerful shower.Liked the all-in DBB rate.Great value.

A bit noisy from the bathrooms above.Twin room a little cramped.

hen we arrived we were geated in a very friendly and effecient way and were made very welcome, all of the staff was very good at making you relaxed even though the weather was bad.

Our only disapointment was that our room was a bit on the small size and we found that having a shower was restricting the way the shower curtain is set up.Otherwise we realy enjoyed our stay, and would stay there again.

Everything about the Hotel was fantastic, the staff were very great, the food was even better. Overall it was very good value for the money. Will be back. P.S. Let me know if you have any more deals like that at the Patterdale if possible please Thanks

Impossible not to like the hotel

It was very friendly, warm and welcoming. The price for our four nights b&b plus dinner was very reasonable so we were pleasantly surprised by the quality and choice of meals. The portions were also ample, much needed after days spent walking on the fells.

There was a small drying room available on the second floor, but in such a great walking area, it would be useful to have somewhere to leave dripping items - waterproofs, boots etc before going back upto the rooms. However, I could see that security could then be an issue. Other reviewers mentioned the very speedy throughput at mealtimes. We did notice this a bit, though it wasn't a problem with us and the waiting staff were all very friendly and pleasant. We took the later sitting at dinner so maybe things weren't so pressurised then

Good all-round value for the money when booked on the net.

Warm friendly effiecient team...one blip in restaurant when forgotton..but problem rectified...would not recommend childrens menu...set choice of evening menu extremely good and varied something for everyone including a vegetarian menu...breakfast menu very good too..fresh not greasy. Good times for breakfast so didn't have to wake at crack of dawn before breakfast finished..mini lie in! Very scenic and close to numerous walks and sight seeing places. Room updated on arrival with minimol fuss

Parking could be an issue --managed to park within hotel grounds for 2 0f 3 nights. Car parking opposite hotel with chitty available

The location is good. The staffs were very friendly and efficient. Particularly the team leader in the restaurant, he had a good observation and made his customers felt very welcome. The bathroom was very clean and spotless.

Although there were many choices for breakfast and dinner, we found most of our main courses were overcooked.

Good food,relaxing rooms tidy

Efficient staff, warm good food,value for money, good entertainment, excellent location for walkers
