Staff were great. The valley had no water due to the drought. The staff took it in their stride. They were honest about the situation, provided bottled water and kept guests up to date with the situation which was resolved by the next morning.

The room was clean, however the paintwork could do with being refreshed. Tea / coffee stains on the wall by the kettle. The bathroom taps were loose (we tightened them) and the toilet bowl could've used a good scrub below the waterline. However, the shower was big with room to move and there was plenty of hot water once the water issue had been resolved.

The lunch / evening menu is very limited. Breakfast was included and very good, there were more options on this menu than the other!

We did however, enjoy our stay and will stay here again when we next go to the lakes.

What a find! It was great. Now don't be deceived by its address. It is not in Ambleside. It's a few miles to the west on the narrow, winding B5343, beyond Skelwith Bridge and the old slate mining village of Chapel Stile. This road comes to a dead end in the Langdales a few miles from the hotel.
There's an old 19th century Ordnance Survey map on the wall of the breakfast room which identifies 'Robinson place' which I think was this building, previously a farm. Anyway, it has been sympathetically restored to welcome visitors, both car drivers like us and plenty of hikers and cyclists. My room had large windows on two walls, with beautiful views of mountains, grass and sheep.

Toilet was broken on arrival but was fixed within the hour and offered a drink on the house which is nice. Staff very helpful and friendly.

Our room was excellent very quiet with lovely comfortable bed, nice bed linen, towels and plenty of tea&coffee etc. Breakfast was delicious. We ate evening meals at the hotel which were homemade and great quality and reasonable price. New owners have taken over hotel just over 2 mths ago and we found them to be very friendly, welcoming and hard working. They're improving the hotel with new decor and have great attention to detail so I'm sure once finished it will be amazing. It's location is great with some fantastic walks and bus on your doorstep. We hope to return next time we are in the Lakes and wouldn't hesitate to recommend the hotel.

Diane on reception and at breakfast was outstanding. Staff were courteous. I had purchased a voucher in advance for food and drink, however, the hotel did not have the equipment to read the code and the details had to be input manually. All worked out well in the end and the three night stay was great value.
Room could have done with some coat hooks especially as the large wardrobe only had four coat hangers. A hook in the bathroom would have been useful and there was only one bedside lamp, otherwise the room was ideal with plenty of space, a lovely bed and a large tv. Good hotel and would recommend to others.

Beautiful setting but in need of a little TLC. Staff were very friendly and helpful but too few in numbers - food service was slow although very good quality. No staff on reception, you have to find someone from behind the bar and our room was not made up despite handing in the form at reception to request this.

Musty/damp smell on top floor.

Also limited choice at breakfast - no fruit!

We would not stay again.

Not enough staff for the number of guests - chap having to cover both the bar/food orders and reception when multiple guests were arriving and wanted to check in at the same time as people were wanting drinks and food.
Stressful check in demanding a physical credit card to secure against failure to pay for meals/drinks charged to the room. It would be helpful if this requirement was clearly described at the point of confirmation of a booking.
The corridors and our room were very tired and in poor condition. Musty smell in the corridors, mould behind the door in the room, broken tiles and ‘bodged’ repairs in the bathroom. Mattress was very soft.
To be fair to the cleaners, they are doing a good job with the environment they have- there is clearly effort to make the room & bathroom clean & tidy.
Breakfast was a stressful affair with the staff appearing to be rushing everything and quite surly in manner.
The same stress and attitude on check out relating to the credit card (from a different member of staff) despite not having made any charges to the room. Charged for breakfast despite the pre-paid booking stating this was included.
The food we had in the evening was well cooked and hot and the garden setting was nice.
Overall, given our experience, the general condition of the place and the cost, we would look to stay elsewhere when visiting the area again.

Awesome location, and it’s one of two hotels in the valley, so there’s not much competition. Room was ok, modern big bathroom but as it was top floor, care needs to be taken to avoid constantly bumping your head on the sloping ceiling. FOH Staff were great and very friendly. When Katy was there, everything seemed to work fine. When she wasn’t, things were different. There was a new staff member who was single handedly taking evening meal orders, manning the bar, reception, waiting on tables, etc, all with a very commendable calm and apologetic demeanor, but 35 mins for our standard Sunday roasts to appear seemed a bit long. But we weren’t in a rush, so no problem. There was a different staff member on duty at breakfast the next day and 20 mins for breakfast to come also seemed a long time to wait, especially as we then had other things we’d sooner have been doing. Apparently Katy was poorly, but it would be worthwhile having a contingency plan in place if possible.
Gardens are lovely, with some all-weather furniture. Super- warm drying room, which is very much appreciated, esp in this location.
Best thing about this place is the location, with paths up to the Langdale Pikes right out the back of the hotel.

Three night break

The hotel is in such a stunning area and the views are spectacular. The hotel room was very clean and had everything needed for a basic stay. It does need some modernisation (no USB sockets) and the pillows were very hard. I cannot fault the staff and especially Diane at breakfast who was so attentive and polite even though she was continuously in the go. The breakfast selection was excellent. We also had dinner one evening and the pie of the day was delicious. We found the experience very good and would stay again

A lovely place to stay no doubt. We had a comfortable 3 nights stay. The staff were lovely. The location was amazing.

The rooms were a bit small. We did have a cotbed but it could still be a bit bigger for the kind of hotel it is. The mattress were a bit on the harder side for our liking but it depends on what you are used to.

The hotel was a bit too hot for the weather. We had to keep our window open slighly and turn off the room heating completely but it was still a bit hot as the lobby was very hot.

But overall it was a memorable stay and i would go back again mainly just for the service and location.

Ok

The hotel was pleasant, the main issue was that the room we were sold was a superior with a kind sized bed, however we received a room no bigger than a cupboard with a double bed. The room was clean and tidy, albeit a little worn. While there was a TV, there was only 3 working channels on it, which wasn’t ideal.

Beautiful location and friendly staff. Bar could have been warmer on a very cold day. Disappointing no eggs or mushrooms available for breakfast but overall good value for money except wine very expensive for the location.

Walking break

Hotel food was very nice. Bit of a wait but food was worth waiting for. Only problem was I paid on credit card when booking, then charged again when checking out. No answer when phoned hotel, hope to get my refund.
Love the area and the hotel is perfect for the fells.

Lovely quiet spot in the Langdale valley. Good base for walks. Rooms were clean, have a couple of rooms which are pet friendly.

The staff were all very friendly and helpful throughout our visit, which was unexpectedly extended at short notice due to heavy snow and impassable roads. Very relaxed stay and a big thank you to all the staff who made us feel welcome and at home.

Great for a weekend break

Good value for money - great breakfast. Great location. Car park potentially too small when fully booked. Thankfully the pub next door is presently closed. Staff really friendly. Really enjoyed our stay overall and hope to be back at some point.

Short walking getaway

A great base for walking the Langdale fells, the bar and lounge are cosy, and the restaurant very friendly. Food was good too. The room was very comfortable with lovely views in two aspects. Will definitely go again.

This place is an absolute gem either for overseas visitors like us or walkers. The scenery is spectacular and we enjoyed the ample breakfasts and our dinners.
Would thoroughly recommend this to anyone who likes a bit out of the way hotel stay.

Great location but menu uninspiring

Fabulous location at the foot of Stickell Ghyll in the Langdale Valley. Perfect for hikers. Food offering was rather unimaginative, however, with nothing for veggies or vegans. (Old Dungeon Ghyll 20 mins walk up the road offers a bit more variety). Dining room also rather gloomy - needs a makeover - while the walkers bar is a bit dominated by sport TV. Drying room for wet weather gear also not fit for purpose. But a great stay nevertheless.

The property is very good. However our experience wasn’t the best. We arrived at the hotel at 8:00 pm and as we were riding all day. We were tired and hungry. We went straight to the restaurant/pub and explain that we had just arrived, that we need to check in and also that we wanted some food. The lady said that because they were busy it wouldn’t be possible for the kitchen to take our order. Bearing in mind this was at exactly 8:03pm and on the paper which the same person gave to us said that on Saturdays the kitchen will be open until 8:15 and specifically stated last orders would be at 8:15. Very disappointed with the customer service. Apart from that, as stated above very nice property and the rooms were ok.
