We booked for a short honeymoon break, niether of us having been to the Lakes before. The facilities are as described, and the best part is the new(ish) spa facility. It is an excellent facility and what made the trip for us, especially after a day on the hills. The rooms are a little smaller than expected and the TV... More

Great two night stay.

The room over looked the lovely garden area which due to the good weather we were able to... More

Stayed here for one night with our 11 year old daughter. Our room was on the ground floor overlooking the river. Lovely decorated and furnished room - in fact all the areas were well furnished. Our highlight of our stay was the spa - WOW! - it is very well appointed and very relaxing! We stayed for our evening meal,... More

The dining room is a recent build on which is contemporary inside and works well with the modern decor inside this traditional Lakeland slate exterior building.... More

This was my first visit to Grasmere since I was in the scouts approximately 50 years ago. The stay was courtesy of our good friends who bought us a gourmet experience as a birthday present. We had such a good stay that we have booked to return in August for our wedding anniversary! The hotel is in a traditional Lakeland... More

The hotel is generally fine. OK location, quiet. And we got a room facing the river at the back, so that was good. Unfortunately, the lady manager spoilt my vacation. On the second day and at our first breakfast at the hotel, she insisted that I sit at the same place that I had dinner the day before. I wanted... More
