Relaxing Break
I’ve been to Armathwaite Hall for lunch or afternoon tea many times and always thought how nice it would be to stay and was not disappointed. I was booking Sunday lunch and as it’s our 40th wedding anniversary this month decided to stay over and we were delighted to receive an upgrade to a deluxe lake view room. The room was big with a really comfy king size bed and sitting area where we turned the chairs round to enjoy the relaxing lake view. The food was superb as always and we enjoyed some relaxing time in the spa too. All the staff were polite, friendly and helpful and are a credit to Armathwaite Hall. We had a lovely relaxing stay which was a great start to our anniversary celebrations.

Spent 2 nights here for our 28th wedding anniversary and loved it. Plenty of public spaces meant that it never felt overcrowded, The grandeur of the building both inside and out. Staff were very friendly and welcoming. Nice selection of food and drinks. Would definitely return.

The hotel was way too hot in all areas. It wasn’t a summers day but all radiators were on. Our room was unbearably hot even once we turned the radiator and towel rails off. The staff were pleasant, and I felt sorry for them as they were all facing a barrage of complaints about a multitude of things from food waiting time to undercooked/ overcooked food / room temperatures etc. On a positive although the spa is small for the size of the hotel and advertisement as the best spa hotel in the Lakes the staff were excellent in this area. Sadly this needs an injection of good management , more staff and quality training to bring it to a four star stay !!!

It is a beautiful hotel and all the staff was fantastic!! The room was amazing! Fiona at the front desk went out of her way to welcome us. A perfect person to start our hotel stay. Very informative and welcoming! Our dinner and breakfast host Manjo (I probably have spelled his name wrong) was GREAT! My wife has a dairy intolerance and he made sure at night everything was dairy free and he remembered the next morning. All the staff who waited on us we very pleasant, smiling and friendly. You have a great team at this hotel. Please thank everyone for us.

A 60th birthday celebration
Welcomed with a friendly smile and a complimentary drink. We felt comfortable as soon as we walked in. We were asked if we wanted our luggage taking to our room, we declined and opted to take it ourselves. Bad mistake! Finding the room turned into an impossible task, we had to ask for help. There were doors and stairs everywhere but unfortunately, not many signs or directions. Apart from this initial mistake, we had a fabulous two night stay. The staff couldn't do enough for you. The service was excellent and the hall was spectacular. The food was cooked to perfection at breakfast and dinner times. We're pescatarians and meals were easily altered to our requirements when they contained meat. The spa was heavenly and the massages we had were sublime! We went on a short walk to the lake following a route given to us at reception. The only mishap was the route didn't mention that we were OK to enter private grounds at a gate that was locked after crossing the road after the bridge. We entered through a gap in the hedge. This aside the scenery around and across the lake was spectacular. The grounds are very well maintained and we even came across pigs near the wildlife park. All told, we had an excellent break and it made celebrating my 60th birthday a memorable occasion

Lovely old house but too cold for us. Hugh has a heart problem & found the restaurant cold & we both found our bedroom cold / radiator came on one day after I complained but was off again the next day. We didn’t like the creaky old lift either- I trapped my finger once!

Peaceful and great room
The room was really comfortable with a huge bed, a separate dressing room, a sofa and both separate bath and shower. The seats on the balcony reclined and looked out towards the trees and the lake. We had an hour to try out the Spa and loved the outside hot tub. Only wish we were staying longer to try out all the facilities and walk around the grounds
