We requested for an early check in- no response. We asked up to make up twin beds in one of our rooms, no response. Check in was also not the smoothest. We were just handed the keys and left to find our own rooms in a maze of a hotel. Would be nice if they had a dedicated check in desk and help with luggage etc and advise on where to park and how to access your room. Pros: The hotel was lovely and rooms were comfortable. Location was idyllic as well, surrounded by hills and farms and easy walk to Grasmere Village. Staff in the dining rooms/ bar was great as well. ##### Sonali Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Kevin 24 Feb 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Food was excellent but too many dogs allowed in the restaurant ##### Kevin Stayed 1 night in Feb 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Bianca 21 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities The Inn is located in walking distance to the village of Grasmere, surrounded by a lovely landscape.

Recently renovated and attractive decoration throughout. Busy Christmas period and staff worked really hard to keep everyone happy. Great for dogs as well! ##### Terry Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Shannon 17 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort My family enjoyed a wonderful stay at The Swan. We stayed in a spacious family room that comfortably accommodated us and our two children (bunk beds were a hit!) The room was spotless, comfortable and inviting. The restaurant included kid-friendly options, and everything was delicious. Our only regret is that we couldn't stay longer to enjoy the beautiful setting and garden. Be sure to check out the public footpath off the lane above the hotel! ##### Shannon Stayed 1 night in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Stephen 28 Sept 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Fabulous.😊We’ll be back. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/43A8CF1C6E00966EA4865882DBBABD4774E332CE1695901629498.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Stephen Stayed 1 night in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Keeley 3 Jun 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Check in was easy. We had a family room, which was large and spacious. Very clean and well maintained. Dinner menu isn't extensive but there's enough to keep everyone happy, and what we had was delicious! Breakfast was very good too. Would definitely stay again! ##### Keeley Stayed 1 night in Jun 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### M. 24 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Ir was okay ##### M. Stayed 1 night in Jul 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Steve 5 Mar 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Pleasant stay in a beautiful setting Can’t really fault the stay, it was only one night, friendly staff on arrival. Room was great and a comfy nights sleep. Breakfast was superb. Only little thing that may help in future is not having to get up and leave your table to order at the bar, I didn’t want to leave my food and go to the bar to order another drink would have been nice to have some table service. Other than that a nice stay and would stay again! ##### Steve Stayed 1 night in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Leigh 12 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Extraordinary customer service Lovely old inn, recently renovated with lively restaurant, outdoor garden, and a very welcoming atmosphere. The customer service is extraordinary! We were waylaid by a flat tire with no support from the rental agency. The innkeepers were incredibly generous with their time, helping us get back on the road, and also showing us what makes Cumbria a special community. We will never forget our time there! ##### Leigh Stayed 1 night in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tinker 12 May 2024 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities Had trouble with trains. They accommodated us. ##### Tinker Stayed 3 nights in May 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Karen 24 Aug 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Was pleased that we were able to switch from a rear facing room to the front of the building. Best room views are at front of the hotel but as they’re next to a busy road which could sometimes be a bit noisy it would not suit everyone. Room was spacious and comfortable. Bathroom was fabulous. Food was good and I liked the policy of trading a morning room clean/bed made service the next day for a free drink each at the bar. We aren’t messy anyway, just shook duvet and plumped up pillows so wasn’t an inconvenience. ##### Karen Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Anne 12 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Excellent stay at The Swan. Staff were friendly, competent and nothing was too much trouble for them. Only one issue- my TV didn’t work properly and I was unable to access many channels. Normally this would not be an issue as I rarely watch it whilst away., but I missed a lot of the Olympics which I would have liked to see. The staff did their best but were unable to solve the problem. This didn’t impact on my stay however, and I look forward to returning as soon as possible. Thanks to everyone x ##### Anne Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel and Spa Chester](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chester-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Hotel-And-Spa-Chester.h527788.Hotel-Information) > > [Grosvenor Pulford Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chester-Hotels-Grosvenor-Pulford-Hotel-Spa.h790572.Hotel-Information) > > [YHA Langdale - Hostel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ambleside-Hotels-YHA-Langdale-Hostel.h11886552.Hotel-Information) > > [The Windermere Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Windermere-Hotels-The-Windermere-Hotel.h13431161.Hotel-Information) > > [Harbour Hotel Christchurch](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Christchurch-Hotels-The-Christchurch-Harbour-Hotel-And-Spa.h18097.Hotel-Information) > > [Windermere Rooms at The Wateredge Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ambleside-Hotels-Regent-By-The-Lake-Hotel.h1461216.Hotel-Information) > > [Ufford Park Woodbridge Hotel, Golf & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Woodbridge-Hotels-Ufford-Park-Woodbridge-Hotel.h12685.Hotel-Information) > > [Cambridge Belfry Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cambridge-Hotels-Cambridge-Belfry.h1103020.Hotel-Information) > > [New Dungeon Ghyll Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ambleside-Hotels-New-Dungeon-Ghyll-Hotel.h478120.Hotel-Information) > > [The Park Royal Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Warrington-Hotels-The-Park-Royal.h24462.Hotel-Information) > > [Last Drop Village Hotel and Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bolton-Hotels-Last-Drop-Village-Hotel-And-Spa.h9341.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree by Hilton Cheltenham-Cotswolds](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cheltenham-Hotels-Doubletree-By-Hilton-Cheltenham.h65899.Hotel-Information) > > [Lakehouse at The Waterhead Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ambleside-Hotels-Ambleside-Lake-House.h13221.Hotel-Information) > > [ibis budget Manchester Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Manchester-Hotels-Ibis-Budget-Manchester-Airport.h75715089.Hotel-Information) > > [De Vere Tortworth Court](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bristol-Hotels-De-Vere-Tortworth-Court.h570412.Hotel-Information) > > [Dunston Hall Hotel, Spa and Golf Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Norwich-Hotels-Dunston-Hall.h519081.Hotel-Information) > > [The Waterhead Inn - The Inn Collection group](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ambleside-Hotels-The-Waterhead-Inn.h11108964.Hotel-Information) > > [Royal Whitby](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Whitby-Hotels-The-Royal-Hotel.h57917040.Hotel-Information) > > [Wateredge Inn- The Inn Collection group](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ambleside-Hotels-Wateredge-Inn.h21197956.Hotel-Information) > > [Cave Hotel & Golf Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Faversham-Hotels-Cave-Hotel-Golf-Resort.h33410673.Hotel-Information) > > [YHA Ambleside - Hostel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ambleside-Hotels-YHA-Ambleside-Hostel.h11298272.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton by Hilton Bristol Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bristol-Hotels-Hampton-By-Hilton-Bristol-Airport.h16543862.Hotel-Information) > > [De Vere Wokefield Estate](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reading-Hotels-De-Vere-Wokefield-Estate.h1044123.Hotel-Information) > > [Redworth Hall Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newton-Aycliffe-Hotels-Redworth-Hall-Hotel.h517266.Hotel-Information) > > [Lakes Hotel and Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Windermere-Hotels-Lakes-Hotel-And-Spa.h901040.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Seasons Hotel Hampshire](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hook-Hotels-Four-Seasons-Hotel-Hampshire.h986107.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Garden Inn Silverstone](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Towcester-Hotels-Hilton-Garden-Inn-Silverstone.h48251404.Hotel-Information) > > [YHA Hawkshead - Hostel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ambleside-Hotels-YHA-Hawkshead-Hostel.h11518467.Hotel-Information) > > [De Vere Cotswold Water Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cirencester-Hotels-De-Vere-Cotswold-Water-Park.h1770053.Hotel-Information) > > [The Three Shires Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ambleside-Hotels-The-Three-Shires-Inn.h22815308.Hotel-Information)
