Langdale Chase Hotel

This hotel attracts us back time and time again, lost count of the number but been visiting with various dogs since 1987. The Staff are simply the best, friendly and forever making a fuss of four legged friends as well as looking after us to the highest standard. I would advise any visitors to aways remember to book your dogs in when seeking accomodation, a must for all high end hotels not just this one. The rooms are tastefully decorated and I've lost count of the number of times that I've overheard visitors describing the view outside as comparable to Lake Como. You need the sun however and fortunately we got that in abundance this time,not bad at all for March!

Loved - It is a stunning building in a stunning location, set on the lake. The building interior is fabulous and has been tastefully renovated. Our room was very up to date and comfortable whilst being sympathetic to the age and style of the building. The 'night light' next the toilet was genius - we have never seen that anywhere else. The cooked breakfast was superb. The toiletries were luxurious, and it was so nice for them not to be fastened to wall so that the products such as the body lotion could be used whilst getting dressed. Loved that fresh milk was available in the room in a glass bottle along with the plant-based m!lk that was requested. The coffee machine in the room produced excellent coffee. Our visit was for Valentines Day, which is also my birthday. The glass of bubbly on arrival was a lovely touch. There were also brownies in the room (not sure if this is usual) as well as a beautiful birthday card. The restaurant staff also acknowledged my birthday and thankfully did not sing Happy Birthday!! Dislikes - The room was short of a couple of coat hooks to hang wet/outdoor gear. This could be accommodated in the area as you come into the room. The bath was slippery and NEEDS 2 grab rails fitting and access to a bathmat - these are health and safety issues. The continental breakfast option was sparse. The coffee at breakfast was dreadful and the tea not much better. The cauliflower cheese was a cauliflower steak with a cheese sauce which was ridiculously overpriced. We would definitely stay again but would have our evening meal elsewhere.
