Had a lovely stay even though the hotel was full it felt very peaceful. Staff very helpful especially Kim. Nice touch is the pantry offering complimentary fresh scones, pastries and drinks all afternoon.Excellent choice of breakfast. We stayed bed and breakfast but enjoyed an evening meal at The Inn (which is the sister hotel). Thanks Kim and all the staff for a lovely stay we will definitely be back.

Anthony United Kingdom

The room on the ground was lovely next to the river and had a terrace / balcony. The hotel is situated in teh heart of Grasmere and within easy walking distance for most things.

Andrew United Kingdom

Lovely place to stay for a couple of nights. Our room overlooked the river and it was perfectly located in central Grasmere. Breakfast was lovely and the free teas and coffees all day were an added bonus!

Alice United Kingdom

Brilliant location. Our room was right on the river so we went to sleep to the sound of the river flowing, it was stunning! There were a lot of walks around the area to do and the breakfast at the hotel was delicious. There was also a great pub down and the road and some other restaurants and grocery shops. All you need. The room was beautiful and clean and very spacious! Highly reccomend.
