Top Lake District National Park Hotel Reviews

Lakeside Hotel & Spa

8/10 Good

"First impressions were good. Room & bathroom clean. Got very warm during the night even though there was no heating on. Shame the main dining room wasn't open on Monday/Tuesday it looked a better menu choice than the brasserie. Overall staff were polite but the attitude during breakfast was generally unattentive & brusk. Would I go back? Probably"

Beech Hill Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"We had a fabulous 2 nights stay at the hotel, and we had a room with a hot tub which was fantastic. The spa facilities were excellent, very relaxing and well maintained. We had breakfast and dinner on both days which again was excellent, plenty of choice. All staff were very friendly and helpful and went out of their way to make our stay as enjoyable as it was. The only thing that was missing was somewhere to hang wet towels etc in the room especially with us having a hot tub. We could have done with hooks behind the door or on the bathroom wall, not a complaint, just a suggestion."

North Lakes Hotel And Spa

10/10 Excellent

"We had an excellent stay at the North Lakes hotel last weekend! As we were travelling with our toddler, we chose a superior room to allow for more space. The room was clean and appeared to be recently refurbished. The small extra touches such as a full-size fridge, coffee machine and welcome biscuit were welcomed. This hotel is fab for day trips into the Lakes and evenings in the impressive spa and restaurant onsite."

Riverside Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Breakfast, shops nearby, comfortable large room Parking good too"

Shap Wells Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"A great overnight stop en route to Scotland. Wonderfully peaceful location with great walks around the hotel grounds. As others have mentioned do not take the direct sat nav guided route when you first leave the motorway. Follow the road to the A6 and enter from that direction otherwise you will be negotiating large potholes coming in the back way."

Low Wood Bay Resort & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful hotel , food in restaurant exceptional, staff very helpful, amazing views !! Dont think they should charge for parking though! Otherwise a lovely place to stay ."

The Belsfield Hotel

"Lovely property, breakfast good, lots of choice. Walls a bit thin, could hear person next door snoring. Windows were heavy and propped open with wood, husband had to lift up to remove the wood. Room was clean. To turn the taps on, they were the wrong way round Shower pipe was leaking but still had good pressure. Would stay again"

Pine Lake Resort

8/10 Good

"Duck poop is almost everywhere and they have no kids playground. There is one but its so small. Weird for a holiday park not to have a proper kids play area outside. Next to no food options."
