A good stay

My wife and I really enjoyed our stay at this hotel. Staff very good and welcoming however the cleaner needs to clean the radiator at the far end of the lounge under the window....just a small gripe....on the whole really good.

This could be a really fantastic hotel but needs to pay attention to detail. Our room was not serviced one day with no apology or offer to clean it. Had the impression that the hotel was being run as cheaply as possible and without professional staff. A false economy.

Relaxing weekend break

We arrived early afternoon and ordered our tea straight away as we did not want to eat it too close to dinner. A wise move as the tea was plentiful with delicious savouries and cakes. The service was friendly and I was impressed that the waiter bringing the amuse bouche at dinner brought a mushroom free one for me without any reminder of my allergy. The food and wine were excellent and the setting is glorious with a fabulous view of the lake from our room. The package was very good value as we have paid significantly more in similar hotels around Windermere. The hotel itself was welcoming with a fire in the lounge and nicely presented rooms.

A delightful two-day break (in the Lake District}

We were made most welcome on arrival and escorted to our accommodation - a delightful room on the second floor with views out over the gardens and to the lake. The room was spacious and well appointed as was the en-suite, Using the bar before dinner we were well looked after by a barman knowledgeable about his stock and many aspects of the environs near and beyond the hotel. The bar was clearly a focal point for the various guests both young and old to enjoy the ambience of a country house party.  Dinner on both evenings offered a good choice of menu, was well presented by an attentive waiting staff and was in keeping with the level of rosettes awarded.
Our 'package' included on one day a service of afternoon tea - delicious, but a word of advice - leave some time between the afternoon tea and the dinner, given that both meals, like the breakfasts, are substantial!
All in all a delightful break in the Lake District, but as ever be prepared for the (wet!) weather - something over which the grand hotel has no control.
