The Traveller's Rest ★★★

"We used the travellers inn as we wanted to see the grisdale tarn and we needed to a room to stay after the sight. They allowed us to store our luggage at the inn as our check in was at 3pm. The rooms were clean and it overlooked a farm area with lots of sheep. The room had an aesthetic look and there was tea satchets we could have as well. The staff were kind and wonderful. The rooms had the britain charm you see in old english movies. If you love sheeps, kind people, good food and 80's british aesthetics- then this place is just for you. We loved our stay here."

Rothay Garden by Harbour Hotels ★★★★

"The scenery is beautiful."

The Daffodil Hotel & Spa ★★★★

"There was no mini-fridge, and the towel racks weren't warm enough; the details were lacking. The scenery was absolutely stunning, but I'd recommend a few other places in town."

The Ambleside Inn - the Inn Collection Group ★★★

"Nice hotel in the middle of the town. Only issue is if you are a traveller with huge luggage, it will be difficult to bring it up to your room"

Ambleside Salutation Hotel & Spa ★★★★

YHA Grasmere Butharlyp Howe ★★★★

"I booked a shared room at the YHA for one night based on a last-minute decision to head out into the Lake District whilst the weather was nice for 2 consecutive days (which doesn't happen too much in Winter for Cumbria.) Fortunately I managed to get myself a bed and the whole overnight stay was comfortable, at affordable pricing, with friendly staff and all services explained to a first-time rookie. As i'm bagging Wainwrights i'll definitely be considering the Butharlyp Howe YHA again as accommodation next time i'm in the area."

Victorian House ★★★★

"This hotel in the Lake District is absolutely excellent. It boasts a beautiful setting and is conveniently located within walking distance of the famous poet's former residence. Parking was easy and convenient. The town itself is very peaceful, with a lovely small river flowing through it. The breakfast was also fantastic; all hot items were freshly cooked to order. Our room was spotless."

The Swan at Grasmere- the Inn Collection Group ★★★★

"This is a hotel very close to the lake area and belongs to a family hotel.  Breakfast and dinner are very good, the amount is also very large, the price is relatively reasonable, and the surrounding scenery is not bad."

Moss Grove Organic ★★★★★

"We stayed in room 11 and were really pleased with the room. It was spacious with a comfortable bed. The place was spotless throughout and had a laid back feel, which we liked. The bathroom was luxurious with a shower and a separate spa bath. Again spotless however the glass door to the bathroom wasn’t ideal, leaving us with no privacy. The location is stunning and central to the village and handy for the shops and cafes etc and we could come and go as we pleased. On arrival we were greeted by whom I can only assume is the manager, slightly eccentric but a nice man. Check in was a bit rushed but we were fine with that. The only negatives really was that it would have been nice to have an iron in the room. I did ask for one but it never arrived. I realise it’s not a hotel but not everyone who stays are hikers. The spiral stairs to the top floor, where we were are way too steep. We are in our 50s and we struggled. There were elderly people in rooms next to us so I don’t know how they managed. They could do with a lift if it were possible. Parking isn’t great. Breakfast was a bit awkward, we are both vegan and we went elsewhere the first morning but we were told that if we got to the kitchen at 9.40 the next morning , there would be vegan sausages waiting for us. We got there on time only to discover we had been forgotten about. The manager did his best but we had to wait and it was a bit uncomfortable and ended up with 2 sausages and some beans. No vegan butter etc. A bit of extra thought would go a long way. We were booked to stay for 2 nights and asked if we could stay a third but unfortunately they couldn’t accommodate us and we booked in to the Wordsworth Hotel next door. What a mistake that was, not a patch on the Moss Grove. We would have crawled back on our knees if they could have taken us back! Regardless of everything, it was a lovely place, with a relaxed and friendly vibe,clean, spacious and we would love to go there again one day."
