So warm and welcoming from start to finish, they couldn’t do enough to make our stay more special for our 30th wedding anniversary. The whiskey sours are the best we have ever had.
Perfect break away in a stunning setting.

The Hotel has a magnificent view on Windermere and the garden and environment are beautiful.
Staff were very friendly and helpful. Although Henrock was closed on the days we stayed, the food at the Bar was excellent (we did dinner for 2 nights we stayed there). Breakfast was very good as well, and we had enjoyed very much on our stay.

The hotels surroundings were beautiful and it was so quiet. The whole experience was very relaxing
The only thing that I was a wee bit disappointed in that the bar closed at 11.
Would definitely be back again

What an amazing find! I simply google mapped hotels near the boathouse marina as we were spending a day on our friends boat and found this hotel was only 15mins walk away. We were then amazed and really pleased to find the hotel had links with a place we had stayed at in South Africa wit being part of LEEU Collection. The hotel has gorgeous elevated views across Windermere lake with a far more relaxed feel than the hustle and bustle of being in the town. The rooms as exceptional and the food we ate in the Henrock restaurant for our evening meal and Sunday lunch was to die for!

We stayed on a Saturday night and found the room tired with dirty marks on some of the furniture like the chairs. Some of the furniture was broken and wouldn’t shut I.e the mini bar cabinet etc. I used the hairdryer and found a pair of dirty knickers in the bag. I would not expect this from a 5* hotel costing over £300 per night. Such a shame. Breakfast was good. Did not raise issues with staff as we were only staying one night. Service otherwise good.

Beautiful experience staying on this gorgeous property. It is the picture of serenity and English countryside beauty. The wait staff were so friendly and helpful - one of the best hotel staffs we've ever seen. We will never forget our time at this lovely place.

Lovely hotel and food, and some staff were really good but several of them really let it down with odd and rude service. Barman in particular left us baffled by just repeating 'sit down please' 'sit down please' in a very gruff tone when we were simply stood at the bar waiting to order a drink. No 'hello, welcome, what can i get you' or anything like that. It was as if we were misbehaving school children causing a scene or that he didn't feel we should be there. As this was not long after we arrived, it set the tone for our stay and left us with a bad feeling.
Making us carry our luggage round the hotel tour we also thought odd... why couldn't we leave it at reception or, for the price, have it taken up to the room? Because of this, the tour, which would've been a nice touch was rendered pointless as the staff member kept saying 'i won't show you this as you've got your bags with you', 'i won't show you that as you've got your bags with you'...
Also, at least twice we assumed things we'd ordered or been offered had been forgotten about during our meal as they took so long to arrive - not what you'd expect at a Michelin-starred restaurant.
Finally, i injured my hand having had to use such force to open the door to access the outdoor seating area. Worrying as it was also a fire exit.
Sadly, although the hotel itself, grounds and food were very nice, for the price and given we've had much pleasanter experiences at much cheaper but equally nice hotels, we won't be returning.

Stunning place with incredible garden surrounding. But bring a dog and get ready to be stung for another £150 costs.

Beautiful hotel and gardens. Small comfortable rooms with everything you could need. Service not up to the standard we were expecting with exception of the breakfast service team. The staff running the bar are unprofessional and my dietary requirements were treated a bit like I was being difficult than a requirement for me not to be sick, I was a bit annoyed about this as I told the hotel in advance however they had noted I was dairy free which was their mistake.

What a gem! I was so sad to leave the property! Everyone was so charming, the facilities were stunning and the art pieces surrounding the property were magical! Marco was the first person we met on a rainy night and he could not have been more gracious!
We stayed in one of the cottages and it was such a beautiful ambiance! I will recommend this property to everyone!
I would love to see just a few more dining options rather than only Michelin-level opportunities since you never want to leave the property, but you want some “comfort foods”. Just a suggestion!
We will be back!

Overpriced for what it is, very inconsistent staff (some are wonderful, some very rude) and parking is difficult. We also ordered room service on our first time, waited 55 minutes for microwaved macaroni cheese that we immediately had to send back as it was completely inedible, there was no discernable pasta it was like mashed potato. No offer to recook it, just the staff member who collected it from our room said "I know it's awful, it's like soup, I don't know why they keep serving it". We definitely wouldn't return.

We booked this hotel thinking it was dog-friendly, as you'd assume by their policy of allowing dogs to stay in-room (for an extra fee). We were very disappointed to find that our dog was not allowed in any of the lounge or bar areas. The staff informed us that we could sit in the entrance hall with our dog and have a drink there! We stayed over the Easter weekend. The hotel was very under-staffed. We waited a whole hour for our breakfast to arrive and, even then, we had to forego our cereal, which they'd neglected to bring over. We were told the restaurant hopes to gain a michelin star - not based on this experience.

The property was absolutely beautiful and the staff very friendly and helpful. The sitting areas in the lobby are so very nice. Its a place where you can stay in the hotel all day if you feel like relaxing. It is really a great option in the Lake district. We loved it.
