"I have visited over 170 countries. This castle is in my top two or three most wonderful places I have ever visited. The castle is amazing but the main reason i loved this place so much is because the staff were beyond perfect. They made our stay something I will never forget. The food and wine could not have been more amazing. The live piano played at dinner was priceless. I will fondly remember this place for the rest of my life."

Recent Reviews in Smardale

The Gateway Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Our room was lovely, great food"

Stonecross Manor Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"On the whole there wasn't anything that we didn't like about our stay. We had a superior room which was very spacious. We couldn't fault the cleanliness of the room, bar/lounge area or the restaurant. The breakfast and dinner menus were v.good. Staff were pleasant and helpful. These are my honest accounts. My only regret is that we did not find the time to use the pool or sauna. However they do serve a lovely pale ale at the bar. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would recommend it to anyone."

Haweswater Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"What a great hotel. It is quite isolated, but is a little gem. Built in the 1930s, it retains many of its original art deco features and has been well maintained and sympathetically furnished for the period. After storms, we had a short power cut and I almost expected to hear a scream from a maid discovering a crime and Hercule Poirot appearing. The food was reasonable, if not sparkling but we did have a powercut in the middle of dinner and they coped admirably. The staff seemed quite inexperienced but were delightful. Lovely position at the side of a lake/reservoir, in the middle of nowhere. Highly recommended"

Days Inn by Wyndham Kendal Killington Lake

8/10 Good

"We stayed in a family room which was brilliant. The kids had a separate sleeping area and separate beds which was great! Nice spacious room for the four of us. Everything needs updating but i overheard that this property is being updated soon. Unfortunately the water was turned off on our last morning. Reception warned us the night before which we were grateful for and we were provided with plenty of bottled water in the morning and an apology from reception which i was grateful for. We found this hotel a great base for visiting the lakes and overall really enjoyed our stay!"

Castle Green Hotel In Kendal, BW Premier Collection

8/10 Good

"Warm welcome and amazing, helpful staff team. Lovely clean rooms and great water pressure. Buffet style cooked breakfast was only thing that was not 100% ... one day it was all pretty dried under the lights, although the next stay it was much busier and breakfast was fresher as turnaround of stock was faster. We ate one night in the restaurant and the food was good but a little pricy, although expected for a hotel restaurant. We would definitely stay again if in the area."

Frequently asked questions

When is the best time to go to Smardale?

The best time to go to Smardale is during the spring and summer months, specifically from May to September.

This period typically offers the most pleasant weather for exploring the Smardale Gill Viaduct and the surrounding Smardale Nature Reserve. You'll find longer daylight hours, making it ideal for walking, wildlife spotting, and enjoying the natural beauty of the area without the chill of autumn or winter. The paths are generally drier and more accessible, which is a key consideration for visitors planning to spend time outdoors.

Couples looking for a peaceful retreat will find these months particularly appealing. The warmer weather allows for leisurely strolls along the disused railway line, picnics by the Scandal Beck, and opportunities to observe the diverse flora and fauna, including rare butterflies and red squirrels. It's a great time for a relaxed, nature-focused break.

For solo travellers seeking quiet reflection and outdoor activity, late spring and early autumn (May-June and September) offer a good balance. The weather is still favourable, but there might be fewer visitors than in the peak summer months of July and August.
