Great evening, stunning cozy venue...

Liked: Stunning venue and the facilities in the room were lovely!
Disliked: It was a bit dark on the drive up when you turn into the property.

Interesting hotel with a great...

Disliked: The fact that other guests were paying a lot less than us because Booking .com and Lancrigg reduced their prices after we had paid and didn't want to give us a reduction.

Comfortable, relaxing and uplifting

Liked: Beautiful setting on wooded slopes, remote from Grasmere but an easy walk in to the village. Sited at the start of the Helm Crag walk. The property feels genuine and traditional with charming features and magnificent views over the valley. The house is set on a large estate with woods, walks, fields and streams. The breakfasts were very good with plenty of choice and the restaurant food was very enjoyable.

Scarfell Pike ideal hotel location

Liked: Room was clean, well kept with a lot of character and in an ideal location for travelling to lots of different sites in the Lake District. Staff were very friendly and helpful and the breakfast was one of the best hotel meals I've had.. me and my partner stayed to climb Scafell Pike, the path we took was just under a two hours drive from the hotel which worked out well as were pretty central, Windermere lake was only 30 minutes away and lots of other nice walks and mountain routes closer. Would definitely stay here again.
Disliked: Some of the food in Grassmere was hit and miss, do your research on places to eat. Wish I'd tried the dinner at the actual hotel as the breakfast was great. Remember to bring a torch with you as no streetlights at night.

Liked: It's in beautiful spot and the meal on the first night was lovely
