Relaxing retreat in the Lake district
The hotel was lovely and our room was beautiful but away from main hotel which had its advantages but not so good for my husband who finds stairs and walking difficult. The room was quite small for the amount of things in it but we did have a balcony which was excellent. The bathroom was superb. We didn't get the specials menu for our second night which was a shame as we would have probably enjoyed the options. I had an email 3 days before our stay saying the pool would not be open and when we got there found out that it had been open for a while on a booking basis. We hadn't got our swimming gear so unfortunately couldn't enjoy the facilities.
Lovely peaceful surroundings
Thoroughly enjoyed our break at this lovely hotel. Great attention to Covid safety.
Comfortable rooms with lots of extras. Beautiful views.
Worth Every Penny
We recently booked a last minute get away, I booked on the Friday and by the Monday afternoon we were in the lakes staying at the wonderful Hillthwaite House Hotel.
It is perched at the top of a steep drive where you have a fantastic view of lake windermere and the surrounding countryside.
The staff couldn't have been nicer, friendly, polite and professional. Our room was one of their Occasion Rooms with another stunning view of the lake and hills. A very spacious bedroom and bed although i was sold with the ambient lighting in the bathroom and the TV at the far end of the bath.
All of our meals were well prepared and tasted fantastic, We were able to enjoy drinks and cocktails in the lounge or conservatory before / after dinner with their being plenty of time and space to do so while giving each other enough space for social distancing.
Very friendly service staff with nothing being too much trouble. Would definitely stay again and can highly recommend this delightful hotel.
Birthday treat

Romantic stay
We booked one of the more superior bedrooms which states for special occasions. However the bedroom was just ordinary with a nice view. Just a white quilt on the bed. This greatly disappointed us. Feel this is false advertising. The pool was dated but ok. Have to have time slots which made it very difficult. The staff and food could not be better.

A very relaxing stay. Nothing was too much trouble for any of the staff.
