We have stayed in Seatoller House twice now and cannot wait to return again next year, we've already booked! Nigel, Trish and the staff provide first class hospitality to their guests and offer a unique experience to all that stay there. We love dining with the other guests around the two large tables at breakfast and evening meal. The food... More

We were never people who returned year after year to any venue, no matter how good, until we found Seatoller House in the early '80s. Its charm and unique format just hooked us; what's more, it hooked our then young children who immediately rated it a venue of choice when asked for their holiday suggestions - and who have continued...

We sort of selected Seatoller House by mistake, best mistake we ever made! The hospitality was brilliant the room I had "Ospray" far exceeded my expectations. I have a limit of 200 characters, so all I will say about the food is thanks Trish quality & quantity perfect. When the team (we are doing 3 Peaks for cancer charities in... More

Seatoller House has to be one of me and my girlfriend's favourite places in the world! We have had the pleasure of spending a lot of time there over many trips, and I am ashamed to say I have only just thought to write a well-deserved public recommendation. The Borrowdale Valley has to be one of the most beautiful couple... More

Stayed in this beautiful house for the easter weekend, the food was brilliant as always and Nigel and Trish were always there if any questions needed to be answered. Just fantastic. Set in the beautiful mountains of the lake district the view from outside your window was phenomenal. Overall a great weekend with some great people

I didn't have any expectations when I arrived at seatoller house but if I had then it would be fair to say they would have been exceeded! I booked myself 3 nights dinner bed and breakfast but ended up staying for 5. First of all the location is fantastic for fell walkers like myself. Easy access to various walks from... More

A memorable stay at a spacious and very welcoming guest house set in a very picturesque location. Nigel and Trish are lovely and the rooms - we stayed in The Osprey - are massive. A home-cooked English breakfast was great and the honesty bar was well-supplied and well-used. Would recommend it to anyone looking for a country getaway and will... More

Fabulous weekend in guest house that's immaculate, well presented and great company by the owners. Once the sun shines on Borrowdale it's such a beautiful and an amazing place. Just far enough from Keswick to be so peaceful and tranquil but close enough to enjoy Keswick in its glory. Brilliant weekend and well priced. Thankyou Peter and Stuart.

After many years of hearing about Seatoller House from friends who visit regularly, we finally managed to arrange a stay ourselves at this warm hospitable hotel. Nigel was quietly attentive and helpful. We didn't have the opportunity to meet Trish but the food she provided was wholesome and plentiful and communal dining was a pleasure. Our room was quiet and... More
