Beech Hill Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"We had a lovely stay at Beech Hill Hotel. The staff were all so friendly and welcoming, nothing was too much trouble and they were always attentive. We were also lucky enough to receive a complimentary room upgrade on arrival, which was a really nice surprise! We had both breakfast and an evening meal at the hotel and thoroughly enjoyed both. The facilities were great too. Overall, we had a really enjoyable stay and would definitely come back. Thank you to all the staff at Beech Hill for making our stay so lovely!"

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."

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."

Gilpin Hotel & Lake House

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel & lake house grounds are amazing and the setting is stunning. The room could use some TLC, the carpet was bubbling and the shower gels empty on arrival. The hot tub outside our room however was very lovely and unexpected. Putting some lights and a bit more private would really add to it. Overall it was a lovely stay and would go back!"
