stayed at leathes head for 10th wedding anniversary weekend. Hotel has ample grounds, eally comfortable in every way. Even provide binoculars in the front lounge so you can watch the birds in the garden. Lots of rooms have been recently refurbished but, anticipating returning, took a look at most of the rooms and even non refirbished at rear of the... More

We chose this hotel because of its location and the reviews and weren't disappointed. The owners are refurbishing/upgrading the rooms in the hotel and we were fortunate to stay in one that had been completed at the front. The bathroom was finished to a very high standard and we had great views towards Catbells. The staff were very helpful, friendly... More

My husband and I visited this hotel to celebrate my birthday and it turned out to be the best present I had! The hotel is spotless throughout with a gorgeous bar, lounge and conservatory. Beautiful room with wonderful views and a very comfortable bed. The hotel is stunning but its greatest asset is its staff. Never has a vodka and... More

You really have to want to stay here. It is pretty far off the beaten track, with only one road in and out. Having said that, it is well worth the trip for a relaxing stay. We stayed for 3 nights in room 4 and our friends were in room 3. Both are on the front of the hotel, upstairs,... More

Such a wonderful find that I don't really want to spread the good word or too many people may discover it! Had a 3 night stay whilst doing some walking in the area and the Leathes Head Hotel was a lovely place to return to each evening. This small country house hotel is managed by a young couple who are... More

We have just enjoyed a relaxing break in a hotel that we had not previously heard of but will certainly visit again. The new owners are gradually re furbishing and it will only get better. The setting is lovely and we had coffee and flapjack in a lovely outdoor area with all kinds of birds feeding and views of skiddaw.... More

We booked a hotel in this area primarily to explore Keswick and the surrounding areas and to have a relaxing romantic evening away. Borrowdale is a very central area to explore the Northern Lakes. Keswick, Ullswater and Castlerigg are just a stones throw away, amongst others. Borrowdale was a 'good quiet base', so we searched for a hotel in this... More

Booked last minute through booking.com and on arrival was disappointed with room size, expected something on grander scale. However, on inspection found it was immaculately clean, bed was comfortable, bathroom fantastic - well equipped etc. Location is fabulous, views spectacular, welcome warm and friendly. Food - beyond compare - evening meal -absolutely first class, dining room has pleasant ambience, especially... More
