Bridge House Hotel & Silver Howe View Cottage, hotel in Rydal

The extensively-refurbished Bridge House Hotel is set in Grasmere, directly across from St Oswalds Church and the graveyard where William Wordsworth rests.

Well.. where do I start! Fantastic hotel - nestled in the heart of Grasmere. Fab location, transport and stay. Beautiful king room, clean and comfy. The staff - Sarah, Amber, Rhian and Ben - were super friendly and welcoming, and most definitely the best staff we’ve ever had the pleasure of meeting. I rang up ahead of time to request a little surprise for my partner’s 30th birthday, and they set up champagne and fresh chocolate strawberries in the room, without hesitation. They even signed a card and left chocolates. Hugely appreciated and made our stay very special. The room was just stunning. We had the river outside the room. The hotel in general is modern, tasteful and spotless and the breakfast, afternoon tea and coffee was excellent. Nothing was too much to ask or do, and you were greeted by smiles, laughter, guidance and support every morning, noon and night. They really went above and beyond - thank you, team! Our new spot for years to come, without a doubt. If you’re looking for a place to stay in grasmere - look no further - you won’t be disappointed..

    The building and grounds are picturesque and so very Lake District. The staff were all friendly and very helpful. The room, while basic, was comfortable and peaceful. It’s in a great location with ease of access to many places and is opposite Wordsworth’s cottage! I was staying at the front of the hotel and the WiFi was superb.

    The presentation of the stunning grounds and the backdrop of hills and mountains made the stay exceptional. It was a very quiet setting - very desirable away from busy lifestyle. The attached cottage cafe added to the pleasure of staying in the hall. The evening menu was substantial and nicely presented. All staff were very courteous and went the extra mile to help make us welcome. The bus transport made access to local towns very appealing.

    Wooden cabin was nice and cosy with the wood burner inside and open fire outside. Great views and kitchen area was simple but sufficient. Nice high ceiling and the unlimited wood (that we had to pay extra for) worked out well and allowed a fire whoever we wanted.
