"Property appears to have been recently made over, everything is new and fresh, extremely clean and although on the small side the rooms are perfect for overnight stays, comfortable bed and with more than enough tea/coffee supplies unlike a lot of places. The continental breakfast was excellent quality and plentiful. We could not fault the staff who were extremely friendly and helpful. Overall excellent value for money and we will definitely go back"

Top Elterwater Hotel Reviews

Macdonald Old England Hotel & Spa

8/10 Good

"Extremely good location, bus stop, restaurant, supermarket, lake cruise center, just few minutes walking distance to reach out."

Lakeside Hotel & Spa

8/10 Good

"Nice welcome from reception and help with bags. Room very comfortable and clean but a bit stuffy due to exceptionally warm weather and no AC in room which can’t be helped but had brought our own cooling fan in addition to the one provided by the hotel. No bar service outside so had to get own drinks from outside bar or in the Muddy Boot pub inside. Drinks prices are a bit on the steep side but a great choice of wines beers and cocktails. Staff mostly friendly but I wouldn’t say they were above and beyond in terms of the service. We ate in the brasserie both night and enjoyed what we had but highlight was the excellent breakfast. Location is fantastic being right on the banks of Lake Windermere and next to the ferry pier which takes you to Bowness although this ends around 6pm so there’s not much choice of alternative places to eat in the immediate area unless you want to drive out. Overall an enjoyable stay and would definitely recommend."

Low Wood Bay Resort & Spa

8/10 Good

"The room was clean as always, stayed here a few times now. This time in the main hotel as we had our dog with us so had a pet friendly room and it was lovely. My only issues around the hotel are the lack of air con in the room and in the W restaurant. I realise this current weather isn’t the norm, but a fan isn’t the greatest. The staff are always fab, and otherwise it was a nice stay. Room was spacious which helped when having our pet Will possibly stay again in future"
