The property was perfect. We booked the camping barn as an alternative to camping so we didn’t have to worry about putting up tents and cooking equipment etc. it didn’t disappoint, the lady that greeted us was lovely, the bed was a dream after a day of walking, the Setting is beautiful and the pub 10 minutes walk away was the cherry on top!

Monica was the kindest and lovliest person.We had a lovely welcome and she arranged a beautiful.packed lunch instead of our breakfast as we were on the Cumbria Way and needed to get off early.
The location is superb.Could have easily stayed another night.

The hotel, staff and food exceeded our expectations. Real ale was well kept and a bonus. The highlight of the afternoons were the RAF jets flying up the valley at tree top hight. People would wait for their arrival.

The scenery is stunning!
The scenery is stunning! Shame about the closeness of the road to our bedroom window!
A cooked breakfast would be an improvement! The room was tiny! I did have another 3 days booked for the end of September but cancelled after our stay! Find somewhere different to eat other than The Kings Head which isn’t as good as they make out!

Gateway to both the Northern and Southern lakes.
Gateway to both the Northern and Southern lakes. A lot of good restaurants in the general area, but book early if in a large group . Hoards of people so visit important places early e.g. Castlerigg stone circle is MUCH better if you're the only group there. You can feel its 4500 years age. Book steam ferries before you go otherwise availability might be low. Ask prices at tea rooms before buying. We paid £33 for seven teas/coffees.

Thirlmere is out in the country, not in the rush of the general tourist population. It is easy to reach Keswick and Ambleside and delightful to come back to the peace.
The King's Head just down the road produces good food.
The countryside is majestic and inviting.
Staff were amazing, we travelled with our dog and 4 month old baby, first stay-cation and the staff couldn’t do enough to help.
We liked the size of the family rooms as there was enough room for us to bring our own cot bed and doggy bed.
Location was perfect and we loved to catch the bus into Keswick so we could both enjoy a couple of drinks, buses were on until 9.30pm which was late enough for us.
We would definitely stay again, great affordable hotel to use as a base for exploring the lakes.
The whole property was homey, just what we wanted for a relaxing stay away from the city. We loved the full English breakfast served by the house owner herself. We felt very welcomed by Jean.
The home has a very traditional British and homey feel to it. The location is a perfect retreat as it is located at a scenic, accessible and quiet location. It’s in between Keswick and Ambleside. Plus the thirlmere infinity pool and waterfall is just a hike away which can actually be seen from our bedroom window.
A lovely overnight stay in this cozy farmhouse close to Thirlmere at the foot of the Dodds.
The landlady was friendly and welcoming and my room was very comfortable and had everything I needed. I particularly liked the fresh milk in the fridge and the Thelwell loo seat 😆
The tasty full English breakfast in a traditional dining room setting was perfect for setting me up for the day.
Just a 10 minute walk to the nearby pub and then on a little further to Thirlmere itself.
This hotel is in a brilliant location for visiting the Lake District. It is a 10 minute drive into Keswick and there are other walks straight from the hotel. The room was spacious and clean with wood floors which were better when coming in with muddy boots and paws! The staff were friendly and attentive and the coffee from the cafe was great. I would stay here again when visiting this part of the lakes.
The location is in the middle of two towns, so literally on the highway. But it has great views.
Both towns Keswick and Ambelside are a 20 mins drive. So it's important to have a car if you plan to stay here.
Food is good, though the menu is limited. The outside seating has great views.
There are treks nearby the hotel, though I couldn't do any, but the trail started just behind the hotel.
Great location for walking Hellvellyn of the thirlmere loop. Basic room but All you need if you just looking for a stop over after some good less trodden walking. Staff are great, food is very good, breakfast is excellent, nice place to have a few beers by the fire before dinner. Overall really good value without any frills.
it was very nice and quiet, the bunks were Cozy, the manager of the property was very kind and put on the fire for me before she left. The barn is also easily accessible via bus, which makes the lakes and scenic hiking routes easily accessible as well.
Staff went the extra mile for us, Making sure we had everything required, breakfast was very good, dinner at the sister hotel The Kings Head was superb and just along the road. And what can I say about the location ' just beautiful' and so peaceful.
What a delightful place to stay! A working farm with lambing about to start, Helvellyn above for a great day's walk, Thirlmere below and well worth exploring. A breath of fresh air.
Very friendly staff
Clean & tidy & comfortable bed
Great value for the Lake District
Perfect staff
Very dog friendly
Great little licensed coffee shop open till 9pm!
