    We had a fantastic Christmas getaway at this hotel! The location was absolutely stunning, surrounded by peaceful nature and offering breathtaking views. The staff were friendly and helpful, making us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. The self-catering facilities were top-notch, allowing us to prepare our own delicious meals and enjoy outdoor dining. It was the perfect way to spend quality time with our loved ones during the festive season.

    There were a few minor issues that we encountered during our stay. the shared toilets and bathrooms were not ideal, especially at night when it was difficult for certain guests, such as the elderly, women.

    The hotel offers great value for money with reasonable prices and attention to detail. The location is fantastic, situated in a village opposite a picturesque lake, providing excellent trekking opportunities. The staff are friendly and the basic amenities, including rooms with two large sash windows, are comfortable. The hotel also serves a good breakfast to start the day.

    All in all, our stay at this hotel was great and we had no complaints.

    The new year party was okay and there were free drinks and snacks. the area was great, with easy access to the stunning countryside. We also enjoyed the fact that there was a pool table for entertainment.

    The room was not well-maintained and the bathroom was dirty. it was quite small for four people.

    We stayed in a Pod for 2 nights and it was warm and comfortable. The cooking facilities and shower area were excellent. The staff at YHA Hawkshead were lovely and helpful. On one night, we tried the food from their menu and it was simple but hot and hearty. We wanted to try something different from our usual hotel or rental cottage and we had a great time. We would definitely recommend giving it a go! I'll recommend this hotel.

    I had a fantastic stay at this hotel. the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, making me feel welcomed throughout my stay. Secondly, the basic amenities provided were more than enough for a comfortable stay, with two large sash windows allowing for plenty of natural light. Lastly, the location of the hotel was perfect, away from the busy tourist areas and village, providing a peaceful and serene atmosphere. Additionally, the breakfast served was delicious and satisfying.

    All was great, no improvements needed.

    This hotel is great value for money, with affordable prices that won't break the bank. The attention to detail is impressive, from the basic amenities provided to the clean and well-maintained rooms with two large sash windows that let in plenty of natural light. The shared bathroom facilities were kept clean and tidy, and the breakfast served each morning was delicious and satisfying.

    All in all, my stay at this hotel was fantastic and there was nothing that I believe could be improved.

    Located opposite a beautiful lake and close to Grizedale forest, this hostel is perfect for trekking enthusiasts. the spacious camping pods are a definite step up from tents, with electricity, and they are clean, cosy, and affordable. the dedicated camping showers are powerful and clean, although only three in number. the stunning grounds are perfect for a sociable vacation, and kids love the place with a ball. the flat walk on the quiet road from the pub is refreshing after drinks.

    The kitchen often runs out of mugs in the morning, which can be inconvenient for those needing a hot drink.
