Great stay, would have liked a curtain or blinds on the bedroom window. Also, the lounge area needs brightening up, maybe introduce a small bar area or light bites of an evening to purchase. Quirky but enjoyable.

Brilliant hotel in Grasmere
Amazing hotel in Grasmere, ideally situated for walks and opposite the bus stop if you want to go to Ambleside, Windermere etc. The hotel is decorated very tastefully. The staff are so helpful and polite. Our bedroom was very comfortable and had amazing views. Loved the welcome gingerbread as you checked in. We only stayed one night but wished we could have stayed longer. Price is very reasonable. Lots of choice for breakfast

A very nice place to stay while hiking the coast to Coast trail. Alex and Jacqueline were wonderful for our check-in and our breakfast in the morning.very personable and friendly. It was such a comfy room that it was a shame we didn't arrive earlier. We had a 16 mile day of hiking so we didn't get there until almost dark! Would highly recommend this as a stop.

Lovely hotel with really nice staff. The only tricky thing was parking. There are only 7 spots for 20+ rooms. We stayed in the Stargazer room which had a lovely view but the curtains weren’t good enough at blocking light overnight. It was also quite warm even when it was only 18-19 degrees outside. There is also an emergency exit light in the room that is incredibly bright. And the door itself lets light in from the hallway. Otherwise, a very nice stay in a great location.
