Stayed two nights just before easter, wanted to show my wife what a great location Scafell hotel is in, and use as a base for a couple of Borrowdale walks. I stayed last year for one night when doing the Coast to Coast walk, and just had to return. My Mrs loved it. Its a mix of 'years gone by'... More

We received a warm welcome on arrival, and promptly showed to our room. The room overlooked the river and was superbly finished. The staff where extremely friendly and couldn't do enough for us.

The restaurant food has to be the 'piece de resistance'. The... More

It is beautifully furnished and as well as a bedroom... More
