    Glenridding the gateway to Ullswater.

    Glenridding the gateway to Ullswater. I chose the Ullswater Inn for it's location as it's right in the heart of everything. Access to Lake Ullswater is a stones throw from the Inn. Plenty of walks and beautiful scenery, whatever the weather. The food at the Ullswater is prepared fresh to your order and is of a high standard, no need to go looking to eat elsewhere. I can fully recommend the porridge at breakfast. Chris and the team really make you feel welcome and do everything they can to make your stay a thing to remember.

    Lovely quiet relaxing place if you want to get away from it all. It has shops cafe and you can go on the boat around the lake. Keswick was 30 minutes drive away. You do need a car to get around.

    Very beautiful location with quaint cafés and plenty of hiking trails. The lake offers more experiences too. There is a lot of nature to explore. It is also quiet and peaceful. The locals and warm and hospitable while other hikers and outdoorsy people are friendly too. It is a tad difficult to drive around due to the road quality in some places. The ferry across the lake stopped services fairly early too (around 5pm). Food and drink is good. There are plenty of local beers to try and lots of vegan options too in multiple cafés.

    An excellent hotel met all our expectations.

    An excellent hotel met all our expectations. Location & surroundings are spectacular. We did the walk from Glenridding to Howtown it was very challenging to inexperienced walkers but the views were stunning. On our way home we stopped off at Lowther Castle which was lovely .

    Lovely small village comprising mostly natural stone built properties extending up the valley. One of the main access routes for those wishing to visit Helvelyn & nearby mountains. Also main access to the Steamboat ferry - so its quite a busy place. (Beware - the Steamboat may cancel at short notice - leaving you stranded miles from where you want to get to.!!). Several eating & drinking establishments available - all those visited were busy. Main road through the village is quite busy. Would recommend a visit.

    Lovely peaceful location near Glenridding. Good price for a 'twin room' which was quite big and actually had 3 sets of bunks, but only two of us in it. Drying room is a great facility in YHA hostels, if you've been out in the rain or have washed some clothes. I liked the option to buy breakfast & dinner from the hostel although I mainly used the self-catering kitchen. Excellent walking opportunities all around. We enjoyed a boat trip from Glenridding, including the option to disembark for a while for a walk.

    Thank you to Daniel, who waited at reception and made me a sandwich when I arrived after midnight on the first night, delayed due to traffic. This set the tone for the entire stay. The breakfast was fabulous, as was dinner. The friendliness and genuine tone of the staff was heartwarming. Everything was spot on, everyone was welcoming, the service was outstanding. I recommend the Inn on The Lake to everyone! It is a home from home and I'll be back!

    Stunning views, spacious and comfortable rooms, very friendly staff. I do not normally like to get housekeeping and I put up a 'do not disturb' sign throughout my stay, and a housekeeping staff asked me if I needed anything (toilet rolls, tea bags etc.) when she saw me leave. Glenridding is a small village and does not have many restaurant options, but the hotel has one, which was very convenient for having dinner (delicious food as well!).

    We liked the care and attention of the staff during a difficult time in hospitality. James the Manager was exceptional and professional in all respects. Carly was a great welcome on Reception and then stepped into other roles as needed. A flexible and enthusiastic team. The hotel setting by the beck and outside space was well done. Available free parking was greatly appreciated.

    What stands out most of all is the friendly, helpful, smiling attitude of ALL STAFF that we came into contact with. Nothing, I mean NOTHING was a problem or hassle, everything we asked for was delivered with a smile. The hotel is to undergo a £2m upgrade next year. This should make the place even better (but please keep all the same staff).

    We arrived late and were unsure about whether we'd get a vegetarian dinner - but we did, and it was unexpectedly good, including excellent service. This is a lovely hotel, comfortable, with excellent staff, an outstanding location, and very convenient for anyone who wants to experience a ride on the Ullswater 'steamer'.

    On arrival I was greeted with a warm smile, and helped up to my room with my case, as it was very heavy. At breakfast there was a good selection from yogurts to fruit ,and of course the menu to choose from, can highly recommend the full English breakfast, also the service was very good too.

    The property is in woodland and there are deer who visit the garden. Glenridding is in walking distance and there are several places to eat and drink and shops there. It is a good base for walking and the walks around Ullswater are lovely and not too strenuous.

    This is a well equipped cosy cottage in the middle of Glenridding, on the walk up to Helvellyn. A lovely welcome pack was provided. A stunning sun room on the third floor provided panoramic views of the surrounding mountains.
