Breakfast was excellent. We loved having afternoon tea and scones in the drawing room, and a refreshing cider served while we read. Books about Beatrix Potter and a sunny window seat to snuggle up and read were very much appreciated.

The attentiveness and atmosphere within the hotel was sublime

The bathroom was shared. Not keen on the Degas prints on the wall. Would have preferred pictures of local views.

We couldn’t have asked for more. Clean, comfortable and friendly. A welcome cup of tea and scone was welcomed and especially infront of a cosy fire.

Everything, from the warmth of the welcome, the first class service we received, the setting and the overall quality.

Our room was beautiful but a little chilly even with the radiator on. However, this didn't spoil our stay at all.

The staff are absolutely superb - friendly, professional, courteous and knowledgeable. Richard, the owner and chef provided meals of an excellent quality, so much so that we didn't want to go elsewhere to dine. We would like to praise Richard, Ed, Angela and Lesley to the hilt!

The shower cabin was too small. One wrong move and you either burn yourself by accidently adjusting the water mixer or hit yourself in the soap holder. I think the dinner price can be more competitive...

Great view from the hotel. The breakfast and dinner were good.

Stunning location. Friendly staff who looks after guests. It felt like I was visiting relatives :) Clean room with lots of thoughtful details which makes you feel welcome. Cosy lounges with fire places. Will definitely come back.

There is nothing that needed improving, every aspect of our stay was perfect.

The attention to detail in every aspect of our stay, from the individual Victoria sponge with a pot of tea, to the decanter of Sherry in the room, was much appreciated. The hotel is both spacious and homely, with a warm welcome from both the staff and the fire in (one of two) lounges. The breakfast deserves a special mention, it really was special! We will definitely return.

Nothing! The country roads are a bit trecherous at nights, and we came down on the tightest roads on the first night, but Emily was quick to recommend us the alternate, safer, route. Be careful on your GPS!

We were immediately welcomed and given a tour of the beautiful building, including the garden and the two lounges. Everywhere was kept toasty thanks to the fire places, and there were lots of books and board games available to pass the time. Our room was spacious, clean and kept supplied with lush hot chocolate, tea, etc. We had a fantastic view of the lake too. The staff were absolutely wonderful and couldn't be more helpful. Had a lovely chat with Ed one day, then Angela the next! The food was fantastic, I would highly recommend grabbing at least one dinner there, and definitely go down for breakfast every day. Wonderful selection, and exceedingly tasty. Incredibly cooked by the owner and solo chef, Richard!

None. Everything is perfect!

We had a great time staying here. The owner was so warm welcome and pay attention to every single details that their guests can be notice. All the set up and decoration is very precise and professional. We would definitely come back here again with our family and we’re willing to recommend this place to anyone to stay here. And Thank you for giving us the best experience while we’re in UK.

It's a little old fashioned and at first I was worried about the narrow window for dining and breakfast - but actually it worked out just fine.

The view from the verandah towards Esthwaite Water is worth the stay alone. The dining room is light and airy and a great place to enjoy the delicious breakfasts and dinner. There were lots of nice little touches in the room which I appreciated.

It meets our needs perfectly- nothing we didn't like.

The excellent food, the beautiful location and the really friendly staff made this a wonderful break. We have stayed at Ees Wyke a few times and always enjoy it.
