Nestled within the breathtaking landscapes of the Lake District, Woodlands Country House is a true haven for those seeking an escape into tranquility. From the moment we arrived, the enchanting beauty that surrounded this idyllic country retreat left us captivated, setting the stage for an unforgettable stay. Upon stepping into Woodlands Country House, we were greeted with a warm welcome from the gracious owners, whose commitment to excellence was evident in every aspect of our stay. Their genuine passion for hospitality shone through, ensuring that every guest felt not just welcomed, but truly cherished. The owner's meticulous attention to detail was apparent, creating an atmosphere that felt both refined and inviting. The rooms at Woodlands Country House are a masterpiece of classic charm and modern comfort, seamlessly blending timeless aesthetics with contemporary amenities. Each space felt like a sanctuary with a view that could easily transport you into a postcard-perfect scene of the Lake District's rolling hills and pristine lakes. After an incredible restful night's sleep, we woke to the owner/chef delivering a breakfast truly beyond our wildest expectations. Darryl's mastery in the kitchen was evident in every detail. The whole stay was amazing. 5 enthusiastic stars on all counts!

Very comfortable stay with great food
Very comfortable stay with great food. We booked a very short notice stay at Woodlands Country House, and very much enjoyed the experience. Received a very warm welcome on arrival and found the family running the house to be extremely hospitable and pleasant to be around. Rooms had been recently refurbished and were very comfortable and clean. The real gem about this place is the food. Everything was freshly made and the dishes were structured around taste, fantastic, and would easily trump any of the other restaurants I have eaten in, in the Lake District area. The house also had a very comfortable lounge area with a bar stocked with local and high quality wines, sprits and beer, all at a very reasonable price. The room was advertised as an annex, but you are fully undercover from the room to the house, so no getting wet going for dinner. I would certainly stay here again and book in dinner.

Lovely hosts, clearly a working progress for the family, not helped by COVID. But great food and beer, and super service. The rooms were great.

Great location for a Lake District visit. It was the perfect family friendly hotel. The owners are friendly and knowledgeable about the local area and gave us some recommendations of where to eat locally. The area is tranquil and perfect for a relaxing break and only a short drive to the hustle and bustle of Lake Windermere and other locations. We will definitely be returning.

Easter Break
Fantastic stay over the Easter break. Darryl and Naomi are perfect hosts and extremely accommodating. We were all made to feel truly at home. The room was spacious, spotlessly clean, very stylish and themed around local history which was a lovely touch. Both the breakfast and dinner offering were all locally sourced and tasted amazing. We enjoyed our break so much that we booked to return in the summer before leaving. Our daughter is counting down the weeks already!
