Overwater Hall is, without doubt, the very best hotel in the Lake District. The service is just superb and the food is to die for. We have stayed there 6 or 7 times and have never failed to be impressed. Stephen, Angela and Adrian (and Luke) are simply the perfect hosts. If you know of a better hotel please let... More

I've been to Overwater a few times and find it difficult to believe that they can get better every time but they do. There are so many little touches that make this place my favourite hotel. The staff, the food, the personal attention to detail in everything just cannot be matched anywhere else. Can't wait to go back again. More

I have thought long and hard about writing this review. We went to Overwater solely as a result of it's excellent TA reviews and came away somewhat disappointed. I had originally decided not to write a review as the staff and managers did seem to try very hard indeed and I did not want to put a dampener on their... More

A visit to Overwater Hall is quite an adventure. First you have to find it, then explore the delights of your room, then scale the heights of the menu. The Grade II listed building is well tucked away but our SatNav found it okay. Luke, the ever-attendant manager opened the front door and remained a model of courtesy throughout our... More

We found the Overwater Hotel quite by chance on the internet and were unsure what to expect. We booked for a family birthday party (eight of us) and so fingers were crossed! Everything was perfect and met our hopes and more. A wonderful quiet location surrounded by lovely countryside and views and a real gem of a hotel! Attentive but... More

Overwater Hall has become a very firm favourite with my wife and I having recently returned from another wonderful New Year's Eve houseparty. It is an oasis of calm and the perfect antidote for stress. The staff are the most caring and helpful you will meet anywhere and the owners treat you like one of the family. Food is of... More

Bit confused about some of the previous reviews, at one stage we though people might have reviewed the wrong hotel! Firstly, the Hotel is a bit remote with no mobile signal (perfect if you want peace and quiet), although they do have free wifi which is handy for emails. You can get a signal at the top of the read... More

Angela, Adrian & Stephen go to great lengths to ensure that their guests have a wonderful stay at Overwater Hall. The hotel is set within stunning grounds, the rooms are spacious and welcoming, the service second to none and the food simply amazing. If you are thinking of spending a few days in the lakes, Overwater Hall would be an... More

Stephen spotted us unpacking the bags from the car in the wet and came and took them from us.. that's the kind of place it is! It's a beautiful, reasonably remote setting not far from Skiddaw. The Garden room was lovely with little touches like fresh milk and shortbread. Dinner was top drawer food and great service. I think we'll... More
