Stayed here in Jan 2012... great location next to Lake Ullswater, very old fashioned style service which may not suit everyone.... four star hotel with 5 star London prices on food and beverages... The "inclusive" dinner on the DBB rate is not really what it seems... if you want a bottle of mineral water, some vegetables and a desert with... More

I had stayed to this hotel many years ago when it was a Forte heritage. Macdonald hotels have had this for 5 years. I could not believe that nothing and I mean nothing had changed in 15 years! After some discussion on the telephone we were offered a rate which included afternoon champagne and cream tea and an upgraded superior... More

Just returned from a winter break at Leeming House - our first visit since 2006 and we did notice some changes. Firstly the DB&B terms now allow £25pp against the a la carte menu as opposed to a three course meal in the past. In reality this restricts you to 2 courses unless you pay the extra. Indeed, if you... More

Despite an advance booking for afternoon tea we had to hunt around to find our own place to eat and then rearrange the furniture so that we could sit down. The table was rather small for three of us. There was a good selection of food. Service was adequate. The setting is beautiful and the hotel comfortable but there are... More

We had a lovely two night break in January, all the staff were very welcoming and polite. The room was very comfortable and the view was spectacular. The food was excellent. Mosses on reception was brilliant and gave us loads of useful local information and ideas on things to do and places to visit. We would highly recommed a visit.... More

Both rooms very comfortable - super beds - and were clean and well maintained. Main house room had wonderful views over the gardens and the lake while the... More

Just had lunch at Leeming House to celebrate a birthday with friends, what a beautiful meal well presented, excellent service thoughout, highly recommend this restaurant. More

I booked the New Year package for me, my partner and a group of family and friends totalling 26 in number. We were celebrating my partner's retirement and 50th birthday (on New Year's day!), as well as New Year itself. My partner and I stayed from the 28th December to the 2nd January. Many of our group booked additional nights'... More

My wife and I took a two day special New Year break at the Leeming House. There are two parts to the hotel, the old house and the new but thoughtfully designed extension. Our room in the old house was really nice, spacious and well equipped although it does have some minor drawbacks due to the age of this listed... More
