The room was stunning, I couldn’t have asked for anything better and I had the best night sleep. The guest house is very safe and secure, which made me feel 10x more comfortable on my first solo trip. Barely a 5 minute walk down to the lakeside, with plenty bars and food places to choose from nearby

The location was within easy walking distance of the cathedral and town. It was located on a very quiet street and their beautiful gardens were most enjoyable. The staff were delightful and very helpful. Someone was always on duty. The room was very clean and lovely decor with a very comfortable bed. Very enjoyable English breakfast. I would be thrilled to return and also tell our friends about such a delightful place to stay.

I’ve been travelling to the Lake District for years, and this is by the far the nicest hotel, best location, best service and comfiest rooms I have ever experienced. If you are at all undecided about where to stay on your next Lake District, and the Hawswater Hotel is available, book it!!

Very friendly and welcoming staff. Good location. Our dog was made welcome and was even given a dish of sausages for breakfast. I would definitely recommend a stay here. Another bonus was that you could walk from here without having to get into the car. If, like us, you aren't keen on the really busy areas of the Lakes this is a perfect place to stay.
