The whole trip, staff, food and drink were first class

Hotel was in a great location for walking into Windermere ( downhill about 45 minutes). Across the road from the train station and buses stop regularly outside.
The hotel staff were all really pleasant and seemed happy to be there, always giving a warm welcome.
Brilliant hot, full breakfast available with cereal and pastries. Chef always visibly coming in and out of kitchen, with all clean aprons.
Overlooking Lake Windermere and the Langdale Pikes, the Craig Manor is 5 minute walk from Bowness. The rooms have modern decor, en suite bathrooms, and flat-screen TVs with satellite channels.
With a picturesque location in Ambleside, Ambleside Salutation Hotel & Spa World Hotel Distinctive, BW Premier Collection features a modern spa and a brasserie.

Our second visit and it didn’t disappoint. The location in the centre of town was great. A spacious room with a really comfortable bed. We only ate breakfast there but it was fabulous probably the best hotel breakfast we have had. The staff were all very welcoming and helpful.

The whole experience was absolutely amazing..The staff were helpful and courteous and could not do enough for you. The dining experience was glorious, Spa facilities excellent. It really felt like a luxury break. I will definitely be heading back very soon.

We were there for a wedding at the local church but highly satisfied with our choice. The owners are a fantastic couple who made us feel very welcome and told us lots of the local history.
If makes such a difference when you are made to feel welcome the minute you step through the door.

We loved the views.
We loved the views. We ate both there and at another secluded pub just down the road. Troutbeck is easy enough to get around but you will need a car to get into Ambleside. If we were in the area again we would stay in The Mortal Man.

Very clean bathrooms and toilets. Amazing staff, so friendly and helpful. Amazing breakfast and dinner - loved their veggie lasagna. Wifi connection a bit worse in places but with such beautiful countryside all around it didn’t bother me.

This hotel is extremely outdated and in need of a complete refurbishment, it is dirty and smells of damp.
The staff were pleasant but all very young and there didn't seem to be anyone in charge. The food in the restaurant was over priced and poor quality. £28 for a rib eye steak with chips but the steak was chewy and gristly and the chips were undercooked and hard! The price didn't even include a sauce!
It was clear that they knew the room was smelling of damp as they had cheap Reed diffusers and air freshners around to try and cover the smell which made it worse!
The only thing good about this place is the stunning view from the bedroom window but even that doesn't warrant the £225 the one night stay cost me! All I can say is avoid at all cost until they've gutted the place and started from scratch!

Troutbeck isn’t in Windermere so the listing is confusing and cost us a bigger taxi fare than expected. However, the scenery is absolutely stunning and there are beautiful walks around the hostel and the staff couldn’t be more helpful. We really enjoyed our stay.

Beautiful location.
Beautiful location. The scenery is something else & so close to Windermere, there is plenty to see and do. Great pubs & restuarants & if you love relaxing, walking, hiking or cycling, you have it all around you. Stunning, a must visit.
The location was excellent, the views across Windermere are awesome, and the Troutbeck valley is beautiful. Townend farm is a 10 min walk up the road and well worth a visit.
The food was good and great value with free kids' meals and a well stocked bar. There is also a well equipped self-catering kitchen.
We booked a 6 bed room with shared toilet and shower facilities. However, on arrival, we were given a larger room with ensuite, which was a nice addition.
The food in the restaurant and bar were excellent, including breakfast. The Inn is about 20 minutes drive from other towns but this is what we were after, it's easy to walk straight out the hotel and walk up the fells on various walks, the hotel even provided free maps with walk from 30 minutes to 4 hours which was a nice touch. Room was good and had been renovated at some point recently. Would stay again :). Also has brilliant views of the Valley.
Fantastic stay at The Queen's Head! We stayed in the Catseye Cam room and it was lovely, great size, quiet and had a really comfortable bed. We had dinner at the hotel, it was delicious and we felt so welcome. Breakfast was perfect too; tasty and lots of choice. We couldn't fault it and are already looking at when we can come back. It's also perfect to start lots of walks; Wansfell Pike and Sour Howes.
This a gorgeous old inn in a delightful location. The staff are absolutely charming, the pub/restaurant is a very merry and cosy and serves lovely hearty local fare and a great selection of ales. The inn is gorgeously situated on the edge of Troutbeck with a view of Windermere and some spectacular hikes nearby, Froswick and Wansfell in particular.
Immaculate throughout, beautiful setting.
Jaqui was very helpful, breakfast excellent and room was a great size. Lovely extra touch having cake/biscuits left in our room each day. Fridge in room which was great.
Ideally located, two pubs that you can walk to along with a cafe very near to the property. Would definitely recommend.
The place was clean and tidy, the beds were comfortable, the staff was very kind and attentive. The rooms were private, which we really appreciated. The location is good, but you need a car to move around, although this might be obvious if your plan is to visit different places in the lake district
Well furnished rooms with a theme of the Lake District mountains. Very clean rooms.
Friendly and helpful staff. Excellent service. Delicious food and drinks. Dog friendly with a handy hose outside for paws as well as several tasty treats/gifts for dogs at the bar. Will definitely be returning
Lovely guest house tucked away in Troutbeck. Good location for Windermere but quiet and relaxing. The host was very welcoming and friendly. There were great views of the valley, breakfast was nice and homemade, rooms were clean and had lots of character.
We loved our comfortable bedroom with fine views over Troutbeck valley, the warm welcome, excellent breakfasts, and generous provision of tea/coffee facilities with home-baked cakes each day and fresh milk in our own fridge.
Jackie the hostess was very hospitable and accommodating. Comfortable and clean room with nice view. Excellent breakfast. Very peaceful location 10 minutes drive from Ambleside and Windermere
