The hotel offers spectacular views of Haweswater from the rooms with balconies, although there were issues with cleanliness such as bedsheets only being flipped around. The service provided, especially by the night shift staff, was exceptional, making the stay a delight. Located in the peaceful area of Haweswater Reservoir, the hotel provides easy access to beautiful nature walks, but dining options nearby are limited and somewhat overpriced.
