    A perfect place you can spend your time with your loved ones. Amazing view and serene atmosphere. Helpful, polite and competent staff. Spacious and comfortable rooms. Tried different dishes for dinner and were satisfied with each one of them. The walking routes around the hotel, the lake, the mountains present unique experiences even for casual hikers and professionals as well.

    Our suite was spacious and unexpected. It was very comfortable and had everything you would hope to find in a hotel room. It had a great view as requested on booking. Breakfasts were very good as there was a wide choice of breakfast meals available and the service was excellent. Dinners were good too. The staff were excellent throughout our stay.

    We had a great weekend at the Inn at Grasmere. It’s rustic, stylish and simply comfortable place to relax. Sauna and swimming pool were great for recovering after hiking. Staff were very welcoming, excellent food and very spacious rooms. Also, it’s a dog friendly hotel.
