Overall a nice location . Attracts a certain age group we’ve noticed. Breakfast was chaotic like a feeding station in a residential home which was poor. Ideally ( a suggestion) why not stagger breakfast dining times from 8am to 10am instead of everyone turning up at “ rope drop “. And why not a separate area for the cold buffet away from the hot instead of one compact area for cold and hot. Sadly a lot of the clientele were oblivious to time and Space( not the hotels fault ) I hope my suggestions are read !!

Breakfast was excellent, fresh, nicely presented, good service. Breakfast not available before 08.15 which is too late for an early checkout. First night room allocated was large and airy with a super king bed. Rust damage to bathroom tap and mildew around frosted windows detracted from otherwise good standard. Second night a smaller room, appeared recently refurbished. On the top (3rd) floor, no air con and very very warm (it had been a very hot day). Shame our outlook from both rooms was to a shabby bin area on night one and a ‘yard’ at the side if the building - we felt this could be improved as could the faded grandeur of the reception - a little TLC needed in a few areas. Staff were polite and helpful. Beautiful gardens and great parking. The hotel is situated just minutes walk through a park/quiet road to town and Derwentwater.

I felt the hotel needed a freshen up overall. Ladies toilets, very poor aesthetically. Moody breakfast staff on first morning. Very pleasant staff the second morning. Deluxe room with no tissues! Only one window opened slightly. No loo brush.

We had a lovely room and were pleased with it except the bathroom is rather outdated and I’m sorry to say was not very clean ,even the pedal bin lid was dirty so cleanliness or a refurb of the bathroom and it would have scored 100%

Lovely traditional hotel in attractive well-kept grounds, with stunning views. Staff excellent, evening meals outstanding (different menu each day), breakfast average. Ideally situated only 5 minutes walk from the centre of Keswick with free parking. Wish we could have stayed longer!

Faded Gothic splendour - great!

This hotel is a gem but not suited if you want a modern characterless stay (go to the North Lakes in Penrith - yuk). Think faded Gothic splendour with added rabbits on the lawn to entertain

This is a lovely old building with a lot of character. Parking was included in our room rate and when we visited, we had no issues with finding a car park within the hotel grounds. Our room was spacious, and gave us everything we needed. It was quiet and the bed was very comfy. It was a short easy walk into town. We ate both breakfast and dinner there daily. Both were at additional cost to our room rate, but we felt we got good value. The 45.00 GBP pp for a 3 course evening meal was excellent value for money given the quality of the food and staffing. Probably too much food if you have had a late lunch. The second day we ate lighter during the day so that we could enjoy our evening meal more. The breakfasts were very good. On site bar area and sitting rooms were very relaxing. The resident rabbits in the garden were cute (even though we know they are vermin). This was a lovely place - we were there for 2 nights as part of a month long UK driving holiday. I would stay at this Hotel again.
