"I booked this very quickly by just searching Google for "Lake District hotels" one evening and I was very pleased. It is expensive, but it is a 4* hotel, so you would expect to pay a higher price than others. We found the staff brilliant and the room fantastic, although we did get a free upgrade on arrival which was nice, so I can't comment on the room we actually booked! The location is perfect, lovely views and really convienient for the Lake Cruises next door. We did not use the Spa, but did use the sauna and pool, which were great. We only used the Brasserie for the evening meals, and we liked the meals so much, we had the same both nights! (Fish and Chips and the Lakeside Burger) Breakfast was more than enough, with so many choices and great service from the staff. It is an old hotel, but that should not put people off, whilst they are doing lots of renovation, it did not ruin or disturb our time there (I think there was work taking place but we didn't see or hear anything). Our room had old photos on the wall and you can see it has been an established hotel for many years. We chatted to a few other guests and they were all very complimentary about the place. A couple of staff that we remember that were very friendly and we chatted to, were David (at breakfast) and Sheya (I think that was her name in the Brasserie) but there were others and all were really nice. if you want a authentic period (modernised) hotel that fits the "lake district" vibe, book it!

"The staff at this hotel were amazing and so kind! Especially Moses who worked at the bar, very professional and polite! The rooms were very clean and spacious. The hotel is under renovations at the moment, so there is scaffolding and the elevators do not work. But they were very good about letting me know ahead of time and offering to put us on the first floor if needed. We would definitely come here again! Thank you to all of the staff! You guys are top notch!"

"Loved the lodge, watching the water sports, walking round the lake. Very quiet and lovely setting. Would definitely book again."
