The Inn on the Lake

Despite stormy and rainy weather we had a fantastic experience on the 3 night New Year Break. It is not the cheapest but by far the best we have experienced. The food was superb, the entertainment first class and the staff were very attentive and friendly. The room accommodation was excellent and the hotel decorated in the festive spirit. Views out onto the Lake were spectacular. Even when we went on the New Years Day walk the provision of hot drinks and food spread halfway around was totally unexpected. Afternoon tea on the first day was sumptious and the spread for New Years Day breakfast / brunch was outstanding. A very well managed hotel.

Lovely hotel in a lovely location, staff friendly and helpful. We had tea, coffees and a sharing platter, which were lovely. We also had the evening meal in with our room rate which was a bonus as not sure it was worth £42 each. My wife's selection was better than mine, which we rated an 8 mine I would have rated 6 at best I may have been unlucky but the microwaved desert wasd disappointing it for me. Breakfast was plentiful, toast, fried breakfast, yogurt and pastries are all included. Overall, I'd give it an 8

We recently booked a last-minute stay at The Inn on the Lake, and as always, it was an absolute delight. We've stayed here several times before and even got married at this stunning location in 2018. Nestled between majestic mountains and a serene lake, the setting is simply breathtaking, with beautifully maintained gardens that stretch down to the lakeside.||||Our suite (Room 15) had been refurbished and featured a massive balcony with a stunning view of the lake, and the décor was fabulous. The team who work here are always helpful, efficient, and friendly. Special thanks to Glenn in the Orangery, Jonathan, who is always super helpful and seems to be everywhere at once, ensuring everything runs smoothly, and the attentive lady on reception who booked us in.||||Even when there's a wedding happening, the experience for other guests is seamless. As guests not attending the wedding, we never felt sidelined. From personal experience, we know that weddings here are amazing.||||Can't recommend The Inn on the Lake highly enough for a perfect getaway or a magical wedding venue!

We phoned yesterday to see if we could book an afternoon tea and were thrilled to get in this time of year. ||We were seated at a fabulous table in the quiet bar area overlooking the lake, and despite the hotel being busy checking in New Year visitors we were treated like VIPs. Amazing, attentive service and a wonderful selection of sweet and savoury food, all beautifully presented. ||Thank you to the staff who made our visit feel like such a wonderful treat.

We were looking for an escape for New Year after a pleasant, but busy, family Christmas. This was ideal. Superb location, very good food in copious quantities both for the meals and the all-day extras. Lots of optional activities, with staff who couldn't do enough. The very wet weather wasn't really ideal for much hiking, but we got some walking in. The rest of the time we relaxed in the comfortable lounge and bar with drinks, books and games.||New Year's Eve was a party atmosphere, no specific dress code required beyond "party attire" but it was nice to see almost all the men in evening suits, and the ladies in their best sparkly gowns, it really helped to create a special atmosphere. Many of the people we met were New year regulars, and I can see why.||The New Year's day short walk to Lanty's Tarn was a highlight, we were met at the midpoint with mulled wine, hot chocolate, and great quantities of cake, sandwiches, and mince pies!||My wife has a mild nut allergy, which we had told the hotel about in advance. It was good to see the care the kitchen took, even to organising a special afternoon tea selection for our arrival.||Our only real regret was that we didn't take up the offer of a free extra night, since the sun finally shone brightly the day we were leaving!||

Visited many gastro pubs/hotels for Christmas Day Lunch and always a bit of a let down. This was by far the best we have visited. With special deluxe party hats, lovely Christmas decorations, great attentive staff and we could bring our little dog. The food was very good, one of us is vegan and often the food offered is boring and tasteless, but at The Inn on the Lake it was very tasty and a special for the occasion. Will definitely book again for Christmas Day :)

We visited the Ramblers Bar on New Year's Day with family. The staff were amazing with the kids, they made our teenage daughter a mocktail, nothing was to much bother. This Hotel is beautiful and well worth a visit, in the heart of Glenridding 😊

Only popped in for a pint. Fantastic views over there lake. Staff lovely warm and welcoming. Remarkabley - bearing in mind this is a lovely looking 4 star hotel with stunning views ..... The cheapest and most reasonable priced bar in the village! A good selection of beers too! Unfortunately they don't serve food in the bar area which is a shame. Dog friendly on the hard flooring in the bar. Don't pass it by, do pop in.
