Top Watendlath Tarn Hotel Reviews

The King's Head Inn

The King's Head Inn

8/10 Good

"Whilst my room was small, it had all I needed. The highlight was the staff: reception and bar/restaurant staff were excellent. Polite, attentive, efficient. Breakfast was very good with a wide choice. The restaurant menu for dinner was ok but sometimes a wider simpler choice would have been nice."

Keswick Country House Hotel

Keswick Country House Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The Keswick Country House Hotel is a gem, quietly tucked away with a short walk from the town centre, lovely walks, and beautiful grounds. The hotel was once connected by a railway, which is now part of the C2C bicycle trail, and lovely level walk, through breath taking scenery. The breakfast is great with a great choice of food, well cooked and presented, including Gluten Free options. We had no issues. Maybe a bit more thought about layout, to help avoid cross contamination (eg separation of cereals from non gluten items) and maybe the sausages could be GF? I have found GF sausages are very good, as 100% meat. just a thought. Although I am not a Coeliac myself, my daughter is. I was impressed with some of the the attention to detail, but a bit more choice and slight adjustment with ingredients, positioning and location of certain foods, would be a wow factor, for anyone struggling with an allergy. thank you. The rooms were well equipped, tidy and cleaned regularly. This is an interesting hotel with unique railway heritage. Highly recommended 9/10. The staff were exceptional, very friendly and helpful, I will look forward to our next visit and definitely enjoy this hotel again. Thank you"

New Dungeon Ghyll Hotel

New Dungeon Ghyll Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"A lively Lakeland hotel with great prospects and a good feel . Fabulous Langdale views, clean bedrooms and helpful staff. The food was perfect and I would recommend the chicken and mushroom pie, really good. The new owners have more to do in making improvements to decor and this is underway but we loved it and will return."

Dale Head Hall Lakeside Hotel

Dale Head Hall Lakeside Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"An amazing stay at the Dale Head Hotel! Beautiful location and well-manicured grounds to walk around. There is access to the lake from the property, but not easily - the path is a little over-grown. The Manager, Dale, was lovely and could not have been more helpful. We were there to hike Helvellyn, and he advised us that Swirls Car park (beginning of the hike) is easily accessed from the hotel by a woodland footpath, rather than the main road, or paying for the car park. Drinks on the terrace over-looking Thirlmere lake were lovely in the evening, as were the home-cooked bar meals provided. The menu is small, but is ideal for when you return in the evening hungry and wanting something substantial. I had the Chicken & Bacon pie and my husband had the burger - both were cooked beautifully and very tasty. They also served a home-made beef stew with cheese scones, which looked (and tasted, according to other guests) amazing. A short, 5 minute walk from the hotel is The King's Head Pub on the main road, who also serve delicious food. We stayed in a 4-poster deluxe double with a lake view. The room was full of character (slanting floor - interesting!) And very comfortable - especially the bed! First time I haven't woken feeling like Ive slept on a board! Breakfast was also superb! The poached eggs were cooked perfectly each day! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and would not hesitate to book again in the future. Thank you for a lovely stay!"
