Returned for a winter break -weather cold but skies were blue=perfect. We have stayed at the Borrowdale before and are pleased to report that the service and quality of food are as good as ever.Furthermore the rooms have been refurbished since our last visit to a very high standard. No where better to stay in the Lakes. More

We dropped into this hotel over the New year period for a late lunch. Despite being busy we were courteously accomodated and the service at table was second to none. The Hotel itself restains an old style charm but a visit would be worth it alone to use the toilet facilities which are beautifully modern and spanking clean. Muddy boots... More

My parents took my sister and I to The Borrowdale for Christmas. It's many years since I stayed here and the last time I visited for lunch was August. I knew what to expect where the food was concerned (excellence!), however the hotel has been refurbished since I last stayed overnight. Our room was amazing and it's fair to say... More

Spent a two night mid-week break at this hotel. Overall impression was very good, meals lovely, smart room - comfortable, warm and clean, bathroom - clean and modern. Nice lounges with log fires, great views, free wifi in room. Staff friendly and very helpful. Couldn't think of one thing I'd change. Have already recommended it to a friend! More

Spent 1 night here in a superior room which was very nice, though it had neither a view nor a 4 poster bed. Good stylish bathroom with shower as well as bath. Sensible sized double bed (6 feet wide) and very comfortable. Pillows were a bit flat and could do with replacing. Breakfast was very efficient - request for porridge... More

We arrived in the North Lakes area without a hotel booking and this was the first one we tried as it looked good and promised special walk in rates on a sign outside. We immediately accepted their offer at £70 per person per night for Bed, Breakfast and a 4 course plus coffee dinner (prestige room). Check in was efficient... More

We stayed at the Borrowdale last weekend. We attended a wedding at their sister hotel just up the road, La Dore Falls. We thought that hotel was too expensive. We were worried that by taking the 'cheaper' hotel we may have to lower standards. We were also worried that our 15 year son would be sleeping on a Z Bed.... More

In the course of work and pleasure travel I've stopped in a fair number of hotels and this is one of the best. Service and staff were brilliant. Food exceptional and a great wine list. Value for money for the two nights dinner, bed and breakfast was great and although we don't normally do this sort of 'package' would definitely... More
