Location
Guest Reviews
Beautiful and peaceful location, away from the business of the main parts of Windermere. Room was beautifully decorated, comfortable and large bathroom.
The pool was far too shallow to swim in. Though it was a bonus detail to have a pool so not a deal breaker. The vegetation sausages for breakfast were the vegetable ones, would have preferred fake meat (like quorn,etc)
Beautiful lounge areas and rooms. Clean and had parking. Views overlooking the lake are stunning
Rooms were very hot and humid even with windows open and fan on, couldn’t sleep well due to this. There was a sausage roll in the mini fridge when we checked into our room on Friday. So it had not been cleared out properly. Found the breakfast staff a little bit awkward with us
Is a tradition we now come here every summer and is always perfect. We loved it again and see you next year 😀
The views… You could have been anywhere such as the alps, fantastic. Very friendly professional staff start to finish.
No lift.
We Booked the Superior room at Hillthwaite Hotel for £350 per night. I received a confirmation email and the money was taken. Whilst driving to the hotel on the morning of, we received a phone call from the hotel to confirm there had been a "mix up" and they could offer a less expensive room (the occasion room) and refund us £100. As we were already nearly at lake district we had no option but to agree at the time as this was far too short notice to arrange anything else. However after giving it some thought we later decided to refund the room and cut our losses and drive home after a short day trip.
The occasion room is already £100 cheaper so we are in fact just paying full price for a different room that we didn't want. When I mentioned this to the person who contacted us, the defense was it is still a "very nice room." This is the equivalent of ordering a coffee and receiving a cup of tea and still paying full price. Yes they are both a liquid but why would you pay full price for something you didn't want due to their error?
We booked the Superior room for the amazing view and full length windows. Due to a serious back injury, I haven't been able to leave the house since February, now that I am recovering this trip was supposed to be special, knowing I wouldn't be able to walk much around the neighbouring villages we planned to spend time enjoying the view from the room, and just enjoying some well-earned luxury in a room we booked and paid for. The hotel in fact wasn't really offering anything meaningful to apologise for their mistake. They mentioned they could offer a 2 course free dinner? Offering to refund £100 for the downgraded room is not a good will gesture, when this is already how much the cheaper room cost! Taking 2 days off work, packing a suitcase, driving all the way there only to receive the call when we are 20 minutes away.
Nice pool.Excellent choice of breakfast and lovely staff.Lovely surroundings.
Quite a steep hill upto hotel as we didnt go in car but that cant be helped but view made up for it.
Prachtig hooggelegen klassiek hotel met mooi uitzicht. Alle gemakken voorzien en mooie ruime kamer met balkon. Uitstekend bed.
Lekker gegeten savonds en sochtends.
Eigenlijk niets. Misschien privé parkeren iets aan de krappe kant
Clean, extremely well furnished, great onsite parking and wonderful views
Bed, views, staff were amazing and hardworking.
Bathroom was oudtanding.
No air con or privacy screen or parasol on balacony to make it a bit more private.
Electric socket did blow when used the iron.
Beautiful views, clean hotel and great location.
Bar and restaurant staff lovely, friendly and welcoming
My room (26) badly needed updating.
Bathroom was clean and modern, but the actual room itself had old and scratched furniture.
I asked receptionist if there was another room available and was told abruptly no. Did not find her particularly pleasant or helpful.
Other than that, everything else was great
The hotel was modern and beautifully decorated and furnished to a very high standard, chairs positioned to look out over a stunning view,it was very clean and comfortable, highly impressed.
The only two things were that our room was very hot and opening the windows didn’t help. The other was that it was up three lots of stairs with no lift .
Great location a short walk from Bowness
Lovely pool - very quiet.
Good breakfast choices
