Hotel could do with a upgrade, beautiful house but looks very tired rooms in need of redecoration. The food was really good and we enjoyed what we ordered, breakfast on Easter Monday did take a long time we were sat 40 minutes when I asked if we could order so in total we were over two hours. You need a car and make sure you have plenty of petrol as garages are few and you need to drive to get anywhere Keswick half hour, Windermere 50 minutes... Collapse

I stayed at the Ennerdale Country House Hotel for two nights during October Half Term week with my husband & dog. We received an incredibly warm reception from the staff and I have to say this was the most dog-friendly break I've been on - our dog was given treats on arrival & throughout our stay, including a sausage for breakfast! We stayed in a dog friendly room, which had patio doors that opened out onto the garden. The room was spacious, although the bathroom was quite outdated. If you have your dog with you, you can take breakfast in the comfortable bar area or alternatively, the hotel offers free room service. The hotel is a perfect base for exploring the area, with St Bee's beach 10 mins, Buttermere Lake 45 mins & Ennerdale Water 20 mins drive away. If you're heading out to Buttermere, then be sure to visit the Bridge Hotel - it was incredibly dog friendly, with a warm atmosphere, great food & service - perfect for resting after a full day exploring! On our drive up to the Lakes, we also took a trip on the Ravenglass & Eskdale Railway - not sure the dog was too impressed but he loved exploring the waterfalls at the end of the line!

I cannot praise this hotel highly enough. We arrived with our black Labrador (who was totally spoiled for the duration of our stay!) and were shown immediately to our room. This was an executive suite so on the ground floor in the old stables. It was an exceptionally comfortable room with lots of space for a dog bed and patio doors to the gardens. George the dog who had a sore paw (so he received even more attention!) loved the grounds. Lots of tended lawns but also wooded areas to snuffle in. On the first evening we ate in one of the two restaurants. The food was delicious and the atmosphere very relaxed. Breakfasts were also exceptional with a great choice. For our final evening we chose to eat in the restaurant overlooking the gardens. George was happy to stay in our room as this restaurant is dog free. Our meal was, without a doubt, the best hotel food I have ever tasted. We also had a fantastic bottle of wine. It was all incredibly reasonable too! We had a relaxing and comfortable stay with the added bonus of delightful staff, beautiful surroundings and a very happy dog. We’ll definitely stay there again. Collapse

This was our second stay and it was through a Travelzoo deal The welcome was great when we arrived, in fact were recognised from staying a year before! Lovely large room with view to the side of the hotel. The bath fills in minutes, the water is really hot. Shower in morning was ok but bath Def better. The hotek grounds are lovely with plenty of places to sit and relax. Went to Brooks pub for a few drinks, only a walk away with good selection of beers and open fire Walk around Ennerdale Walk the next day. It's well worth a visit, with walks for all abilities The deal included dinner and this was lovely The only negative is that breakfast on the Sunday was quite slow but we were in no rush so it hasn't pulled my score down All in all we had a great stay and have already booked to go back! ! (Thanks Jackie) Collapse

We stayed for two nights with a travel zoo offer. This included 2 nights b&b plus dinner and a bottle of prosecco on one night. Incredible value for £99 especially as we were upgraded to bigger room. The room was fine but some of the communal areas of the hotel were a bit worn. The ceiling in the dining room is spectacular and it's worth reading the history of the building and the nearby Kangol factory. The meal was excellent and as a result we ate in again on the other night. Craft beer on tap from the local Ennerdale brewery. Walks to recommend are St Bees beach, Whitehaven harbour, Ennerdale Water and the local lake just down the road. All in all a great stay and despite some obvious staff shortages a warm welcome in typical West Cumbria manner. Collapse

Looks fine on the photos but that is where it ends. Staff are friendly enough but the hotel needs to be shut down and refurbished from top to bottom. It’s situated in lovely grounds but next to a busy road that people seem to like to race along in the evenings. Rooms are basic to say the least, cold, foisty, damp. Shower only trickles water out, hole in the bath which they have tried to repair but very badly. Food was ok and service was fine but that’s where the positives start and end. Wouldn’t stay here again. Collapse
