On arrival the staff were excellent at greeting my wife and I. We were upgraded to a hot tub room without even asking which we thought was very generous indeed. As it was our 21st wedding anniversary it turned out great news to us..The room was amazing, ok the view was at the rear car park but the quality of the room outweighed the view.. The spa was amazing and all the ambient light made it special. We had a meal in the pub on site, lovely tapas . Breakfast was perfect, buffet style. All hot and fresh..well done Chef.

Rydal Water

This crystal-clear lake is perfect for a waterside wander. There’s a path that skirts round the banks, winding past William Wordsworth’s old house. Here’s a tip: for the most atmospheric walks, head down just after sunrise, when the mist still hangs above the lake to create an intoxicating air of mystery.
