We stayed at The Leathes Head in February for a one night wedding aniversary stay. It was like staying in a private country house. The welcome was great with complimentary tea and cake in front of a real fire. Fellow guests were chatty and it gave the hotel a real homely atmosphere. The food is very good, The only downside... more

In our previous visits to the Lakes we kept searching for that somewhere special & then we stumbled upon the Leathes head. Since then we have sampled the Leathes head many times over the years, which feels far from the madding crowd but close enough to partake in local activities, if we want to. The service, comfort, food & relaxed... more

We needed to discover a good hotel,somewhere in Cumbria, and suitable for a partially disabled person, as we were on route from Wiltshire to Arran and Islay for a ten day holiday. The internet and Trip Advisor came up with Leathes Head, and what a find that was! Our downstairs room was fitted with everything you could ever want, and... more

Had seen other good reviews, and seemed a safe bet. But it really did exceed our expectations. The room was fine (not modern, but good older style), the bar and lounges were very relaxing with a fire in one, and lovely views from another. The owners really do well with the meals (was a DBB deal), with a four course... more

Recently our party of 5 stayed 5 nights at the Leathes Head Country House Hotel. Before going, I gleaned information from Tripadvisor which was mostly helpful. Our rooms were comfortable and roomy, and although we were unable to get the double aspect rooms, we still had wonderful views from our rooms. Roy and Janice, the hosts, went out of their... more

This was our forth visit and its just the same. Wonderful service, lovely rooms, great location. As for the hosts, Roy and Janice they are masters of the art of providing excellent service without being intrusive. Bar is very well stocked and wine list extensive. Roy says he has tried them all! Certainly he and Janice are in the bar... more

Stayed here with my wife for our anniversary and we were really impressed with this hotel. We both enjoyed our stay and we were surprised by the quality of the food. The candlelit dinner was really nice and the dessert was just simply amazing! We might visit again just to have a taste the dessert! There's loads of things to... more

Wow ! I've never left feedback before, but I was so impressed by my 4 night stay in Mid Feb that I had to praise the hotel owners ( Roy & Janice ) The hotel is in a fantastic location just outside Keswick ... Derwent water is nearby & there is a magnificent view of Catbells. Lots of lovely places... more

We saw this hotel on Trip Advisor and all comments are very true - an excellent hotel. The vegetarian food is particularly good, and this is unusual. more

Just returned from a short break at The Leathes Head Hotel an have nothing but praise to say about our experience. My wife and I were unable to fault anything, from location to outstanding food. Most of the guest's staying with us were regular visitors and I can see why, we will most certainly be returning, but please...... don't tell... more
