    First rate cuisine for dinner, delicious quail. Price below most other restaurants. Our room was warm, clean and with a new efficient shower room. Fresh milk provided for morning tea.

    The driveway takes a bit of getting used to. We drove by and approached from the other direction a couple of times.

    Friendly, hard working staff. Good breakfasts. We had evening meals at Ravenstone Lodge and Ravenstone Manor. Meals were excellent. We prefer the no pets policy of the lodge, pets seem very welcome over the road. Plenty of hot water and good shower. Fresh milk on request for the room, good supply of tea, coffee, hot choc and Borders biscuits. Really lovely little hotel with great views from the terrace and breakfast/dining room

    Our stay was wonderful. Thank you Brett and your team for booking our dinner at your restaurant - it was the best sticky toffee pudding we have ever eaten! We had a very comfortable and easy stay here. The bed was comfortable and the views were stunning over the farmland. Breakfast was exceptional too. Thank you!

    The furniture in the room we had was a bit too dated and the carpet had seen better days. Unfortunately the bed squeaked a bit, we were only there for a couple of nights so it wasn’t too much of an issue for us.

    The location is great. Stunning views and accessible walks from the property. I noticed a bus stop outside the entrance, although we never used it I’m sure if we had stayed longer it would have been handy. The grounds are stunning, the garden is well maintained and beautiful. The breakfast was delicious and plentiful, the staff are attentive and happy to help. The concierge staff couldn’t be more welcoming and helpful, even after a late check-in time. There are thoughtful touches that really make you feel looked after, such as: the forecasted weather being printed, reusable bottles, pamphlets available and knowledgeable staff too. The specials for dinner looked incredible, had we not spent the first two days out all day walking and sightseeing we would have loved to have made it in time for an evening meal at the B&B. It smelled amazing when we returned! The view from our little room was lovely! We could hear the birds (and the lambs) in the morning which was a wonderful experience. You can catch a beautiful sunset from the grounds as it dips behind the peaks. The walk down the the lake is apparently 30 mins although we never got a chance to go down, I was told the walk is pleasant.

    The bed is a bit squeaky, it made noises when I just want to turn around. Other than that, everything was perfect!

    The view of the hotel is absolutely stunning! Sadly we are only staying for one night. We have a nice view from our room, and even a surprising sunset view from the toilet! We had dinner before heading to the hotel, but I instantly regretted it because the menu looks attractive and you could sit outside and look at the great view. The breakfast was very nice as well.

    It’s a great location to explore the lakes / Keswick, with great views from the hotel itself. The property was lovely and cosy , The staff were very accommodating and friendly. We had a drink in the bar area in the evening the. a great breakfast the next morning. The rooms were great, clean and cosy. Would highly recommend anyone to stay and try their home made gin too ;)

    The location is perfect for local walks, from a short ride from Keswick even by bus. The room was very comfortable, clean and nicely decorated. The hotel restaurant is just a delight, the food is absolutely delicious and the breakfast is also top notch. The staff is very friendly and very good in making you feel welcomed and taken care off.

    From the moment we arrived, the owner made sure that we are well settled with the baby, described the area and was very helpful with suggestions of local attractions. The food was delicious, with plenty of choices, so thankful that they accommodate our vegetarian request. The room was huge and super clean, I'm a housekeeping supervisor and could not notice the high standards of cleanliness of the entire property. The bed was so comfy and the view amazing, we drank our coffee in the morning looking at the sheep and listening to the birds cirping. We really enjoyed our stay there and hope to return in the future.
