Lakes Hotel and Spa

10/10 Excellent

"We have just returned home after a lovely 2 night stay here and we throughly enjoyed the visit. The staff were all lovely and welcoming especially Patrick who was the perfect host. We will look forward to returning in the future!"

The Belsfield Hotel

8/10 Good

"Hotel was perfect location for getting to the lake and getting round the local bars/restaurants and shops. The view from the terrace was stunning and the hotel had lovely architecture. The room was ideal and lake view was gorgeous. Spiderwebs and bugs in the high ceilings were the only thing that let it down (we were staying in room 72). Breakfast had good options and majority of it was lovely. Only comment was the black pudding didn’t seem like it was cooked properly. We ate in the restaurant one night and couldn’t complain at all. I had the fish and chips and was one of the best I had. My partner had the mushroom risotto which was also lovely. But would definitely recommend and stay again"
