We had the absolute best time. They certainly went above and beyond the call of duty to ensure we had a wonderful time. The rooms were fantastic, and the staff was brilliant. We were getting married that weekend, and they helped us out with several tasks and gave us what I would consider 'specialty treatment' on many occassions. Anything we needed, they would provide for us without hesitation and without extra charge - it was just perfect. I would definately go back again. Anyone going will not be disappointed.

Me and my partner went last summer for 2 nights for a romantic getaway and ivythwaite lodge was PERFECT!
The jacuzzi was a perfect way to unwind from the stresses of work. The owners are fantastic and extremely friendly. Breakfast was divine and set us up for day. I would highly recommend this guest house to anybody looking to stay in the lakes.

We stayed at Ivythwaite for our honeymoon and having looked at reviews of other local hotels we obviously got lucky. The staff/owners were all extremely friendly and helpful, and the room was excellent, and had a great jacuzzi. Unlike other hotels we've stayed in, we found the accommodation to be exactly as advertised. The food was excellent too, with a charming breakfast room. The hotel was everything we had hoped for for our honeymoon, and we hope to return soon. We would both be staggered to ever read a bad review of this hotel, we can not recommend Ivythwaite Lodge highly enough!!

Lovely room, four poster and jacuzzi bath. Good breakfast (hot!) with really nice bacon and local food. Relaxed host. One tiny tiny criticism is that we could have done with coat-hooks on a door for our wet coats. But a really nice, relaxed stay. Will visit again.
