November2011 we decided to re-visit the Lake District thirty years after our ability to walk the fells had passed.The New Dungeon Ghyll Hotel,below Langdale Pikes, proved to be a good location.The drive from Ambleside to the hotel was through scenery so spectacular and so typical of the Lake District.On arrival our signing in was quick and efficient (you do need...

I stayed here last September as a stop-off on the Cumbria Way. For walkers, its ideally located. After a relatively easy 12 mile walk from Coniston, I had time to fit in a rest, climb up to Stickle Tarn and freshen up before dinner. I had single occupancy of a small double room looking out across the Langdale Valley. It... More

Perfect location amidst mountains with footpaths in all directions. Car parking was tricky when small car park full. Not entirely sure what made our “Superior Room” superior as didn't look into any “Standard" rooms but was adequate, spacious and quiet, simply furnished, smallish TV, no real “luxuries” and no bath, just a large (nice hot) shower. Not the best mattress... More

We had a delicious soup and sausage sandwich at The New Dungeon Ghyll a couple of weeks ago. The staff were very friendly and the prices reasonable. We will definitely plan a return visit. More

The location of the New Dungeon Ghyll is idyllic. The captive occupancy of walkers and climbers could expect an average experience but thats far from the case. The rooms are clean and adequate with fabulous showers and the views are priceless after a good nights sleep. The food is bar or a la carte. The bar food was hearty and... More

Just returned from an overnight stay at this hotel. This hotel is in a great position for exploring the many walks and climbs in the beautiful Langdale Valley. Having walked up to Stickle Tarn and scrambling up Jacks Rake we arrived at the hotel. Check in was slightly delayed but nevertheless the staff were apologetic and we enjoyed a pot... More

Very comfortable and efficient hotel. Bedroom clean and well heated, staff friendly and helpful. One thing that the management must look at is the bar is mopped out early in the morning and the smell of disinfectant pervades the ground floor of the hotel and into the restaurant which rather spoils the otherwise tasty breakfast More

We are used to travelling with our dog and staying in clean, high standard hotels/B&Bs/cottages so booking the New Dungeon Ghyll from their website did not prepare us for what greeted us on our arrival. We were shown to a ground floor room at the back of the property and when the door was opened the smell nearly knocked me... More

Nestling at the foot of the Langdale Pikes, this well run family hotel always manages to come up fresh every time I visit. With a friendly staff, well prepared food with lots of choice. a good selection of wines and some well kept real ale, this hotel manages to combine a walkers refuge at the end of a big day... More
