Spacious, richly decorated and sumptuously furnished throughout, Lakeside retains the warm and welcoming atmosphere of its 17th century coaching inn origins, with oak panelling, real fires and grand floral displays. Snug lounges and traditional bars provide a relaxing retreat, while the conservatory looks out over landscaped gardens that lead down to Lake Windermere.

Surrounding this hotel is an archetypal Lake District countryside of fells, forests and crystal clear streams - nothing comes close to this hotel - except the Lake.

Lakeside's Health & Leisure Spa introduces a new dimension in luxury and tranquillity. It includes a 17m pool overlooking Lake Windermere, incorporating a shallow, 'beach-style' family area and etched glass panels of the surrounding scenery; steam room and traditional sauna; poolside Jacuzzi; gymnasium; and three tranquil spa treatment rooms using AVEDA products, complemented by a private relaxation area. To soothe tension, enjoy invigorating spa treatments with rejuvenating and therapeutic techniques – pure indulgence!

All 77 bedrooms are individually decorated, using rich combinations of fabrics and colours. Many of the rooms offer breathtaking views of the lake and the fells beyond. It is hard to find a more spectacular location than this. From the lawns, private jetties allow guests to step aboard a lake cruiser and enjoy a gentle journey through the Lake District’s breathtaking scenery

Lakeside’s award-winning restaurants provide an imaginative choice: The 2 AA rosette Lakeview Restaurant offers fine dining of superb quality, serving classic and Cumbrian dishes using the finest locally sourced produce. Here, innovative cuisine is served in elegant surroundings overlooking the lake. John Ruskin’s Brasserie offers a modern dining experience, with chic décor and delicious food. The Lakeside Conservatory serves drinks and light meals throughout the day, including traditional Afternoon Tea.

Once here you are sure to fall under the spell of this peaceful location.
