Top Cumbria Hotel Reviews

Keswick Country House Hotel

8/10 Good

"Friendly, well run and well located hotels. Good to be within walking distance of the town and with lively views of surrounding fells. Undoubtedly this historic hotel would benefit from an upgrade and I look forward to seeing the results of new ownership."

The Belsfield Hotel

8/10 Good

"Strange entrance to our room as had to hold the fire door open and room door to get the cases in. Room was clean as was bathroom although bath panel very scruffy. Due to the style of sink turning the tap on causes a tidal wave and wets you through so have to use cautiously! Had to pay for parking as didn’t book directly with hotel."

Crown and Mitre Hotel

8/10 Good

"Lovely hotel, full of character. Spacious room, extremely clean, comfortable nights sleep. Parking was limited but I was able to secure a space. I didn’t get the opportunity to use the swimming pool - you had to request a key/code for access. No fitness suite. Overall, very peasant hotel but I thought it was expensive for what it was."

Woodlands Accommodation

10/10 Excellent

"Nice hotel in a great location between Windermere and Bowness. Hotel was clean, well maintained with basic amenities including a bar, car parking, and a restaurant for breakfast. We chose a basic ground floor room with a king size bed, en-suite with a shower. The room was clean and comfortable and suitable for our needs. An excellent breakfast was served daily. With options of full English, Salmon, pancakes, cereals, fruits and breads to choose from. All in all an affordable comfortable hotel in a great location."

North Lakes Hotel And Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Stayed whilst visiting the Lakes. Hotel was perfect for us as a family with children age 10 to 16. The buffet breakfast was a good selection, children loved the pancake machine. We also loved the pool, you had to pay extra but I felt this was worth it, the pool was a good size and steam room, sauna and jacuzzi nice for adults to relax. The hotel had a nice atmosphere, nice reception area with lovely open fire to sit by."

Beech Hill Hotel & Spa

8/10 Good

"Lovely location, away from the main bowness hussle. Lovely room with a lake view. Super big room (room. 7) with HUGE bathroom. Building works did not bother us at all. We did notice that the heating was not on permanently. This did cause the room to become very cold during early evening and during the night. Some fairly obvious cobwebs in the ceiling corners and the main light. Breakfast was good although I would welcome some less sugary options. Dressing gowns were provided for the spa but they were about size xs so not exactly coveting normal adult body so bring your own!!"
