Great base for walking in the area, however 15-20 minute drive from Keswick. Can’t speak for all rooms but ours was small, with no TV. Bathroom could do with some shelves, however very good shower.
Breakfast choice, quality and service was very good.
£30 additional cost for a dog irrespective of length of stay is extreme

We had a fantastic few days staying at the Royal Oak. Our room was perfect - very clean with extremely comfortable beds, an amazing shower and a lovely view straight onto the river. Lots of walking straight from the door, handy drying room for wet kit and lovely cosy bar and lounge for an after walk drink and board game. Dinner was absolutely delicious with a choice of three options each night. Highly recommended - we will definitely return!

Absolutely loved the hotel. The staff were all amazing and super friendly, they made us and our dog very, very welcome, we would 100% return again.

Exceptional location, amazing bed, and a wonderful, welcoming service from all the staff. Evening meal was incredible. Breakfast was great, with a wide range of continental options to go with your cooked meal.
We are both veggies and ate/drank really well here. What a fantastic hotel

Advertised as Keswick, but it was a 15-20 minute drive away. "Mountain view" room, but could just about see the tip of a hill through the buildings.
Breakfast room was small and chaotic.
Quite grumpy and abrupt reception staff.... stated she left a voicemail message about dinner booking which was a lie as I dont have voicemail set up on phone.
If youre expecting a television in the room; youll be disappointed.
Overall disappointed

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Royal Oak while hiking the C2C. The staff was welcoming. Our room was clean and well appointed. The food and drink were delicious! The large drying room was a welcome perk after a day of hiking in the rain. We would definitely stay here again!

We appreciated the room we rented and loved our friendly wait staff. The shower in one of the small, communal bathrooms must have been clogged because it barely drained, causing almost immediate filling up of the base and water spilling over onto the floor where I set my change of clothes. Thanks

Woaw woaw woaw - from the staff to the food, this place is the perfect get away. The rooms are beautiful, we stayed in a Superior double and were right by the beautiful babbling brook (we kept the window open to listen to the stream). We arrived in the late afternoon on Sunday and decided to both have the 3 course for £35. We were blown away by the quality and the flavours that we decided to eat the following night at the hotel. (Despite planning to have dinner at Keswick) We especially love that the menu changes daily, a limited menu because the food is bought fresh on the day, the chef calls the local market and asks what’s available. We thought this was fantastic! We have never had such a wonderful experience with dinner.
There is a stunning 5mile walk that sets off from the hotel (Castle Rigg) and we decided to use follow the hotel recommendations. Beautiful walk not disappointed.
ONLY LET DOWN - the house keeping, the tea/coffees/biscuits were not topped up throughout our stay and no teaspoons. The dirty mugs were not taken away and no clean ones provided. So we had to wash everything in the sink.

We arrived here after a long wet day in the C2C. Really pleased to find a drying room, an excellent restaurant and comfortable rooms with awesome showers.
Highly recommend

I like the hotel , but found it lacking in a number of areas. The thing that disappointed me the most was the restaurant and bar. The food was extremely limited and was trying to be somthing it wasnt. I found the beer selection limited and the wine way over priced

We arrived back from our hike a few minutes after last food order - we were disappointed that we couldn't even have a sandwich - but had a lovely meal in the welcoming pub next door!! Apart from that our stay was really great.

Didn't expect a room with bunked beds and shared bathroom. Stayed only for 1 nights so was fine, but for longer could be inconvenience. Decent breakfast, although not a fan of FEB, so cant comment on that.

The greeting from the staff was excellent and so welcoming. Rooms are large and bed was SOOO comfortable. There was a bathtub which was a blessing to this guest who had been hiking so really benefitted from the soak. Food was EXCELLENT, especially breakfast. Very easy to find, right on the Coast to Coast path. I hated to leave!

Room was excellent. Breakfast was amazing. Only problem was that exhaust fan outside our room kept turning off and on all night and really disturbed my sleep.

The Royal Oak is in a magical place - a beautiful valley with lovely walks. The room was large, pleasant, and very clean. The breakfasts and dinners were superb. The staff was friendly and helpful. Highly recommended!

The perfect hotel for a stay in the Lake District! Location is peaceful with fantastic surrounding scenery, and is a very short drive away from Keswick, Scafell Pike and Great Gable to name a few, with Ambleside and Windermere reachable within 45 mins to an hour. The hotel itself was both modern and rustic with what seemed a recent renovation. Food was excellent and the rooms were large and immaculate! Couldnt fault the hotel and would definitely recommend to others!
