Location was fantastic. The views from the suite were amazing. Just were only two towels in the room could've done with four due to having Jacuzzi in the suite and a bit more bottled of water the Continental breakfast was not the best. I've seen had mouldy grapes. But apart from that, the experience was amazing.

Our room was great.
Clean and the decor was class throughout the hotel.
Friendly staff nothing was to much trouble.
The food was excellent.
Just one minor criticism the plates could do with being hot as food went cold quickly.
Would definitely have a return visit.

Such a lovely village. Two pubs serving local beer.
Such a lovely village. Two pubs serving local beer. It was quiet, away from the hustle and bustle of Ambleside and Windermere. Walking distance from Hawkshead (20-30min walk) and similar distance from the ferry over to Windermere. I 100% want to return.

Location is good for Western side of Lake District as it is on west side of Windermere - access to Hawkshead and Coniston is good and also Grasmere and westwards. I chose this location for access to Tarn Hows.
Anyone wanting to visit Grizedale and Duddon Valley and Langdale will suit this location - Hardknott Pass and Wrynose Pass.
For Windermere/Ambleside/Keswick and North Lakes, stay on the eastern side of Windermere where the road is also faster and stunning scenery to Keswick.

Near Sawrey is a pretty village whose main draw is linked to Beatrix Potter. It is a must do for any fan of this much loved author but once visited, nearby Hawkshead offers more facilities in a cosy setting.
food was excellent throughout. Staff were very friendly, patient, and provided good advice. The hotel was relaxing and we very much enjoyed the lounge and bar. We were close to the Beatrix Potter house, and the local connections were good to other towns and villages in the vicinity. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom well equipped. The single room that our son used was a good size, and good storage, with a pleasant view.
Great location in Near Sawrey, with plenty of things to do nearby but far enough away from the busiest areas of Windermere. Near Sawrey is also nice itself, with a pleasant pub and a children's playground, as well as a nice short walk to Moss Eccles Tarn straight out of the door.
The apartment was nice, with ample parking, a nice living room and black-out blinds making for a good night's sleep
We were delighted to be able to book this impressive hotel at short notice, it was the last room available. Located on the best side of Windermere away from the crowds we were surprised by the level of facilities and attention of the staff not forgetting the excellent breakfast which fuelled us for our activities on the fells and in Grizedale Forest.
Sawrey House Hotel is in a quiet little village, with beautiful views down to Esthwaite Water. The room had a 4-poster bed, en-suite and a spa bath, with complimentary toiletries and drinks. Staff were friendly and helpful. Choices of breakfast which we thoroughly enjoyed.
It was a lovely peaceful hotel in a beautiful setting evening meal was lovely and breakfast which had a good choice, would def recommend staff were very friendly the chef came out to see how we enjoyed our eve meal, room was clean and bed was very comfortable
It's a lovely little studio that has everything you need. It is very clean and nicely renovated. The area is beautiful, you can walk down to the lake through private hotel land.
I can’t fault the hotel. It is not a chain, which is refreshing. Superb breakfast and friendly people. Right in the village but feels like a country house.
Upon arrival it was so personal. The staff knew who we were and very accommodating. The hotel and the grounds were beautiful. We could not fault our stay.
