“A must”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 February 2012

I haven't actually stayed at the hotel, although I do know people that have, And i just have to report on the wonderful setting, ambience and food. I have eaten on a few occasions in the hotel restaurant, but more often than not in the lovely bar areas. The interior design is very attractive. The most amazing meal I have tried lately is the fish pie. It is a 'must see' and a 'must have'. Make sure that you take a good appetite with you though! The setting for the hotel is also very beautiful. On warmer days it's an absolute pleasure to take a seat outdoors alongside the edge of the water. The prices are a little high, but there are no disappointments with what is being served. A lovely experience all round.

“Lovely meal in a wonderful bar area”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 February 2012

Stopped off at this very nice clean looking hotel for a bar meal to celebrate my birthday!

There was ample choice on a reasonably priced menu, and an added bonus for ourselves was the ability to take our dog into the bar area with us.
We had an enjoyable meal, couldn't manage starters or desserts due to the ample portion sizes.
I am already looking forward to our next visit over to the lakes for another meal in this wondeerful place.

Room Tip: free wifi if you have a laptop or smart phone with you..

“A favourite watering hole... but need to look after the beer...”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 February 2012

I called in today, after a walk, hoping for a pint or two of Loweswater Gold. First pint was cloudy. After changing the barrel, my replacement pint was cloudy too... which is not what I want after a walk. Third pint OK... but it was ten minutes before I was able to enjoy it. No other gripes; it's a friendly, comfortable place. But someone needs to be keeping an eye on the beer...

“Perfection”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 February 2012

Stayed in the Ruskin Suite - cannot fault the hotel at all. The atmosphere was perfect, staff extremely helpful, food and drink delicious and the room was spotless and beautifully decorated. We cannot wait to return!

“Great place to relax & very child friendly”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 February 2012

Recently stayed for a long weekend. Our 2nd time at the Swan & it is still a lovely place to stay & relax - even with 2 children under 7. Well mainteded to a high standard, great facilities & staff are really friendly & helpful.

Hotel makes a real effort with children with specific area with toys/books, good childrens menu, magazines in room specific to childrens agre & even complimentary milk & cookies at bed time.

Only minor improvement would be to have bigger chanigng rooms for gym/pool as it can get a bit cramped.
