Relaxing countryside retreat

Firstly this is our go to hotel in the Lakes. Been using this hotel for over four years now. As usual the staff are great throughout the hotel. The food at breakfast and dinner were excellent. Unusual for the UK I know but we had two days of sunny hot weather. We were allocated the on site wooden lodge adjacent to the Spa. Unfortunately the lodges do not have aircon, and being in the wooded garden we couldn't open the windows due to flying insects. Using a single fan in the bedroom didnt help. Maybe insect devices are needed along with aircon units. Ps. The spa was great and included in the roon cost.

Expensive rooms and pay to park on top

The accommodation was expensive and then you are charged £10 per night to park when they cannot guarantee space in their small shingle car park. I thought that a shabby and grabbing change since the hotel buy out. By comparrison Grand at Grasmere is newer, slick, clean and cheaper. Great views of lake, car park marked out, and free. Will book there in future.

Excellent hotel

Lovely stay at Rothay Garden. The hotel is well maintained with lovely grounds, the room was clean and with a very good shower. But what really stood out was the great service, with very courteous staff. Excellent place to stay in Grasmere

Nice lodge but poor service

Nice spacious lodge with comfortable beds - although connected to another and noisy when neighbours watching tv, in bathroomnetc. Bad service and quite rude staff on check in sadly. Hotels.com confirmed breakfast included on chat but hotel said it wasn't - went up the road to the swan for breakfast and dinner which was fabulous with friendly service. Good location for grasmere though - although even as resident parking charge was £10!

Great location and amenities, strange breakfast, peas with poached eggs? We’ve been a few times now and there has been a recent change of hands. Highly recommended, but please look at the breakfast menu!

Excellent stay

Stayed for 2 nights. Lovely hotel, ideal location. Arrived early and was able to leave the car at the hotel after checking with reception. There is a daily charge for parking, though if you're planning on just being in and around Grasmere it is reasonable compared to the public car parks. Check-in was smooth & trouble-free. A complimentary room upgrade with a large room on the top floor offering views over the fells. Room was spacious, warm and the bed very comfy. A large bathroom with double shower & bath perfect for after a days walking. I only had breakfast at the hotel which consisted of a generous selection of cereals, pastries, fruit, yoghurt, juices etc. Cooked food is ordered and brought to you. Again a generous selection. Only slight downside was the second morning it felt as though they were a bit busier than expected at that time; took 25 minutes to take my order and when it arrived it was luke warm at best; as if pre cooked and not kept hot. Which is a shame as the quality of the food is excellent. Unfortunately, I didnt get time to make use of the spa facilities. All of the staff were incredibly friendly, and nothing was too much trouble. Thoroughly enjoyed my stay and wouldnt hesitate to stay again or recommend to others.

Mostly great

Hotel is lovely and the spa is fab, great location and the staff were lovely. The food was mostly good however the portion size for our evening meal was a joke, absolutely tiny, and the breakfast wasn’t great either, the sausages and bacon had obviously been pre-cooked and hanging around for a while and dried out. The music in the restaurant was absolutely awful, terrible covers of songs. In short, I would definitely stay at the hotel again but won’t eat at the restaurant again sunless they improve it. The jumble room down the road was incredible
