Simply Brilliant
Pros:

What a fantastic place to chill, relax and forget about the real world. The staff, the ultra, ultra dog friendly approach (I mean ultra friendly too) is just so refreshing. At the same time its not overun with four legged friends so this should not put you off if you dont have a dog. Dog owners were very respectful of the hotel too...and the hotel provides towels etc. Lovely rooms, views and food. Sooo relaxing. Ravenstone Manor really is a very special place...everyone we spoke to during our stay sung the praises of the hotel and the team. Plenty of walks around the woods and up into the hills. A really very special place to visit and stay. A real home from home.

Cons:

Nothing at all...but be aware car park is a little awkward.....but not an issue.

Très joli hébergement typique
Pros:

L'architecture de la bâtisse est superbe aussi bien de l'extérieur que de l'intérieur. La chambre était très confortable

Cons:

Des efforts sont faits sur la présentation des plats mais vu le standing de l'hébergement et les prix nous nous attendions à une cuisine plus élaborée.

Beautiful hotel with stunning views, friendly staff, great breakfast and close to Keswick
Pros:

The breakfast was really good and great selection. the poached eggs were done to perfection.

I loved the decor.

The staff were great visited the sister hotel across the road and sat on the terrace, we were really lucky with the weather and the views were amazing. The stable block was stunning.

They staff were really attentive and great with my fathers dog gave her water and treats.

Cons:

Perhaps convert some of the rooms make them more accessible for people with mobility issues, a mat in the show and a grab handle. My father is in his mid 80's couldn't use the shower during his stay.
My single room which was lovely but was the same price as a double room and no view to speak of.
The evening meal were really good apart from my desert the Affogato was served with cold coffee instead of hot coffee. My father salmon for his evening meal was nicely cooked but was bland.

Lovely hotel, friendly staff and delicious food.
Pros:

Lovely hotel, great location and friendly staff. The food in the restaurant was also exceptional.

Cons:

The parking was limited and very tight. There were also quite a few cobwebs in the room, which made me question the cleanliness.

Great choice for a relaxing getaway.
Pros:

Location was perfect. Staff really friendly. Food and drink amazing.

Cons:

The bathroom floor hadn't been cleaned properly (hair grip and hair on the floor). There were cobwebs hanging from the ceiling. That didnt stop us from having an excellent stay though.

Great Location, great food and comfortable rooms
Pros:

The room was comfortable and clean. The breakfast was very good, as were the evening meals. The rooms are dog friendly so you may suffer barking coming from some of the rooms, but it did not bother us. The parking can be difficult as many come here for lunches and dinner. The Victorian house has a lot of charactor and atmosphere which made it for us and the location near the lake for walking is excellent.

Cons:

Difficult to fault, apart from it being constantly busy, but that is due to it being so good.
