"We stayed in the Lodge 1, it was aesthetically really beautiful! The only downside is you can hear EVERYTHING from next door, which wasn’t too bad for us because it was just TV but I can imagine if you had a rowdy next door neighbour in the lodge you’d be extremely disappointed. The Spa was beautiful and intimate it is a great escape for a couple… However, two elements of the shower didn’t work, the hydropool could use a bit of maintenance and a little bit of atmospheric music would be great...

Victorian House

10/10 Excellent

"Staff were professional, helpful and friendly. Location was perfect. Quiet and convenient. Recommended."

The Daffodil Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This is an older hotel in a gorgeous location right on Grasmere Lake. The interior has been modernized, which some traditionalists lament, but it is very comfortable. There is humorous, whimsical art throughout the facility. The large spa is a real plus. Breakfasts are ample and offer plenty of options. Large bathtubs in the rooms are very nice. Our shower stall often smelled musty, but this could be relieved by leaving the door open. A full length mirror in each room would be a good addition. If space is a concern, it could even be placed on the back of a closet door. All in all, a beautiful place in a prime location. We would stay here again."

The Swan at Grasmere - The Inn Collection group

10/10 Excellent

"Loved everything about our stay except that the bathroom was very small - hard to even dry off after a shower -- the space in the room was so tight. Parking was also challenging. Otherwise, lovely place with very pleasant staff. We were there during a heat wave, and a very nice staff person rounded up a fan for us. We were comfortable with the fan blowing on us all night (there is no AC but we didn't mind). The breakfast was excellent, including the vegetarian full English. Lovely outdoor seating area. Easy walk to the center of the village. I would definitely stay there again."

Beck Allans Guesthouse

10/10 Excellent

"Jenny and Jim are the greatest hosts, they truly ensure you’re well looked after and are super happy to share useful tips! Our room was perfect, clean and with loads of storage options! Breakfast was super well organised and the options were so varied. Everything we tried was delicious! The location in the centre of Grasmere is also perfect! Thoroughly recommend!"
