The room was very comfortable although the bathroom was a li..."ttle small given the quality of the rest of the hotel.

  "A memorable return visit"
  "Our second visit to a lovely small elegant hotel. The owners, Kath and Mike, are a friendly and helpful couple who gave us another warm welcome. They, together with Lauren, made our w/e visit a truly enjoyable one. Talented chef Clive provided beautifully presented and delicious meals. Swinsi..."de Lodge is well located for a Cumbrian walking holiday where one can leave the car behind and walk directly from the hotel - a big bonus as parking can be a problem in popular Lake District. No doubt we will return when in need of a quiet w/e away to enjoy good food and hospitality and wonderful walks along Derwentwater. Thank you Kath, Mike, Lauren and Clive " More >
