We stayed here on a long weekend with the family and dogs - everything we could have asked for - good location with the Langdales just up the road (easy parking, pay and display), does packed lunches which were superb, very good evening food, good bar and lovely staff who were attentive, very friendly and helpful. Bus stop opposite to Ambleside and also up to the Langadales for those with no car

Two night stay with my daughter. Beautiful property and excellent food. In stunning surroundings. Loved the hotel. The only thing I would mention is because I booked through hotels .com and not the Inn I wasn’t aware that you have full use of the spa facilities at the Langdale. Had I booked directly with the Inn I would have known. Fortunately though my daughter has a swim suit with her even if I didn’t

A beautiful country inn located at the heart of the South lakes. The rooms are compact but well appointed and comfortable. The food (especially the breakfast) ‘hits the spot’ and the staff are brilliant. The spectacular Langdales are all around with no need to use the car - so just park up and enjoy.

Liked: Cleanliness
Our room, 4, was directly above the bar and an awful din came up through the floor. It was very noisy and kept us awake when we went to bed before the bar closed. Then well after 11pm there was a series loud bangs as doors were slammed downstairs below us - made our room rattle and shake. Not pleasant.
