Ive just read, quite shocked some of the negative views of Skelwith Bridge hotel. We regularily stay in 4/5 star hotels which dont get me wrong are wonderful, however modern & contemporary - lovely if you like that extrem modern style. Having had some bad news we visited Skelwith tfor the first time to 'get away from things' - thats... more

Five months ago I booked two luxury rooms for four nights during October half term. Unfortunately, the hotel put us in two basic (and very tired) rooms, failed to inform us in advance but worse still omitted to tell us when we checked in. However, they seemed more than happy to charge us the luxury room rate, presumably in the... more

We recently stayed at the Skelworth Bridge hotel for a Saturday night ( as a party of 5 ). On the whole, the hotel is quite good, but it was left down by the restaurant. Our room was a deluxe double, and there was certainly nothing wrong with the room, the room was large, had a huge double bed and... more

I stayed here for one night on a dinner bed and breakfast basis. I had a single room, which was exactly that, a single bed. The room was clean and comfy but the shower in the bathroom was fairly rubbish and hard to use. Dinner was very average, everything had clearly been microwvaved and although not untasty it was quite... more

Really enjoyed our stay at Skellwth Bridge, very clean , had a great room, but on arrival we were met by a very stressed recepionist who had computor problems,so we had to wait.!! We felt that the hotel needed a presence of an owner or manager who had the interests of the clients at heart, a personnel touch, the staff... more

Overall very disappointing stay. The hotel is in a fantastic location but the rooms and public areas are just so old fashioned and crying-out for investment. We actually had a family room (7) which was in desperate need of refurbishment. The bedroom door was a very thin, old 1970s laminate with a creaking steel handle. The breakfast menu also lacked... more

My husband and I had a fantastic 2 night break in October at the Skelwith Bridge Hotel. We stayed in a deluxe double bedded room which had plenty of space and was spotlessly clean . Dogs were welcomed in some rooms and we weren't given a tatty room as in some hotels we have stayed with our dog. The food... more

I stayed with a friend in twin room (superior) 10 on a Satuday night. Unfortunately other commitments meant we could only manage the one night. We really enjoyed our 2 days in the lakes. The hotel was a key part of the experience. The location is about 2 miles west of Ambleside surrounded by ideal walking country. The restaurant and... more
