"A really nice, friendly pub in the village of Hawkshead. The room was good with an excellent bed and the food was amazing. We’d definitely be up for returning. "
"My sister and I spent just a couple of nights here and truly fell in love with the house and staff. Every interaction was easy and kind, the house was incredibly well kept, and the grounds were gorgeous. It's located a bit out of the way which is perfect for minimizing crowds and noise! Our room was perfectly sized and the bed/bedding comfortable. All in all, a 10/10. Highly recommend to anyone in any stage of life."
"Lovely inn, staff are super friendly and happy to help. Bed was very comfy and the room was spotless. Lovely view out the front to the villiage square and hills beyond. "

Ivy House
10/10 Excellent
"Beautiful family home. Room was lovely comfortable and clean. Breakfast was tasty and plentiful. Hosts were lovely, friendly and very helpful. Would defiantly stop again if space available "
"This hotel is one of the best I’ve ever stayed in. Staff were attentive and friendly. Breakfast had excellent variety and really nice. Room was large with a a separate sitting area. My husband didn’t like that the tv was in the sitting area so he couldn’t lie in bed and watch tv but I was really happy about that! Hot tub on our balcony was a delight. Cocktail bar was fab and was the pub and the food on offer. Loved our stay here"
"Visable damp on the bathroom wall by the shower and a very strong smell of damp in the downstairs area including bedrooms. The owner tried to disguise the smell with air fresheners and by leaving the windows open but the smell of damp was still immediately apparent on entry.
Had we been staying longer than 2 nights and not arrived so late in the evening on the first night we would have left.
It was a real shame because everything else about the property and surrounding area was beautiful, but the damp issue should be attended to as soon as possible as it is potentially a health risk."
"Comfortable weeklong stay. Good rooms, friendly staff, clean washrooms. Location also quite decent. Some really nice trails nearby. A bus stop nearby and ample parking for guests"
"Gorgeous Hotel centrally located in the village of Hawkshead, room had all the facilities, key pad entry so no keys to carry
Bottles of water by the bedside and even my favourite Costa Coffee pods for the coffee maker
Beautiful restaurant/cafe downstairs. Breakfast was included in my stay and was one of the best I’ve had
Staff were very helpful and very nice
Really can’t fault it and would definitely stay again "
