We were booked in here at an excoriatingly good rate by our agent, we upgraded to a lake view room. Car parking was right outside the front door and check in was pleasant, our room was gorgeous, beautifully and calmly decorated, super king sized bed and good linen; it was warm and the bathroom had everything I like about bathrooms,...

We went this weekend as two couples to this superb hotel. The rooms were very comfortable and spacious. We upgraded to a classic with a view - well worth the extra. We had evening meal included on our package and it was excellent - very attentive and pleasant staff. The afternoon tea was delicious after a day's walking. Communal areas... More

My husband and myself stayed at this hotel on friday evening we only booked on the morning last minute. We paid £120 for what was described as a classic room. We arrived and the hotel is quite an imposing building with lovely views from the front. We were greeted and shown to our room where we were really quite disapointed.... More

I wish to correct some inaccuracies with this review. First of all if the reviewers check their account they will find that they had actually been charged for a basic room and breakfast i.e. £99 not £120 as they state. I did express my sincere disappointment that they unhappy with the room and that if they felt they would prefer... More

The pool is a great place to relax after a long walk , dipping in and out of the sauna/steam at... More

We have just returned from a short break at this lovely hotel. The staff were very warm and welcoming, the room we stayed in had stunning views of the lake and a jaccuzzi bath. The food and service was of a very high standard, and the roaring fire in the lounge was a lovely place to sit with a drink.... More

Beds really... More

Fantastic hotel, lovely and clean, food very nice good quality posh nosh really. Bed comfortable from all the walking you do! Sauna and steamroom and pool are a nice touch for a cold night. Steep driveway to walk up at the end of the day but worth it as the views from the actual lounge/ restaurant is truly amazing especially... More

We stayed at the Hillthwaite House on 6th Jan 2012, having got a deal through the bay Radio. This was for B&B. On looking on the Internet prior to phoning to make the booking there were other offers also available, yet I wasn't allowed to use one night on the one already bought, and then use another offer. I asked... More
