Top Cumbria Hotel Reviews

Beech Hill Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"It was great stay, view from room was amazing, breakfast was delicious and staff was helpful :)"

The Belsfield Hotel

8/10 Good

"The hotel is in a great position and we had a wonderful room overlooking Lake Windermere it was therefore handy for the facilities of Bowness, ALL the staff were friendly and very helpful, with a special mention to Phil and Ali, our only criticism is that the bar does not have enough variety of draught beers/lagers. I would not hesitate in recommending this hotel."

Crown and Mitre Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I've stayed here before with family excellent! I stayed on 25/7/26 with my man and we loved every minute. The pool, the room, jacuzzi, breakfast , very helpfull staff , we preferred a solo swim so reception rang our room to say pool was free , so appreciated! Upgraded us to a club room very nice indeed , extras were good , crisps bottled water biscuits coffee tea etc iron and board hairdryer , fan,.breakfast was so well cooked ! We will be back ....Donna and Phil"

Low Wood Bay Resort & Spa

8/10 Good

"Great location Very good staff. The Winander section has its own very helpful staff and breakfast with great views. The room we had was a very spacious and well designed. My only comment was a shaving mirror would have been useful given the distance to the actual mirror. The spa access for hotel Guests was somewhat more limited than expected and the outdoor areas were completely separate and require extra payment. What is left in the swimming pool area is a little bit more limited than similar properties in the area we have tried."
