Wolviston Holidays from £356

Beautiful hotel , food in restaurant exceptional, staff very helpful, amazing views !! Dont think they should charge for parking though! Otherwise a lovely place to stay .

Certainly not a 5* hotel as advertised. The room was fine though it was 2 single beds pushed together so there’s always a gap down the middle. The floors are very creaky & you can hear people walking past in the corridor and walking about in their rooms all the time. The walls are paper thin could hear next door talking , having sex & snoring , heedless to say we didn’t get much sleep! . Tiles were cracked in the shower , bathroom also needed a returb. Service was ok but could’ve been better. Food & drinks are quite pricey.

We stayed for a few nights at the end of July. The hotel itself had good facilities - a lovely spa area and swimming pool, a "pub" underneath the spa/next to the pool, and a balcony area where food was also served. The view over the lake from the balcony was nice, and the food was excellent. It was nice and quiet, and location wise it was a few minutes walk to the lake and then on to Bowness itself. The only downside is that there's no ski lift up to the hotel after a hard day's hillwalking :D In terms of the bedroom - the bed was comfy and the room was quiet and clean. The furniture was overall good, and the bathroom was a bit small but definitely functional. The only major knock is that there's no air-conditioning, only one desk fan. This was ok when we went, but would no doubt have been very difficult if we had gone during one of the heatwaves. Overall though, I'd recommend staying at Lakes (also - visiting the Lake District in general!)
