The Inn On The Lake

Country House in Glenridding

8.7

Very Good

From $241

4-Star Country House

Located in Glenridding, this hotel enjoys a spectacular setting in 15 acres of grounds on the shores of Lake Ullswater. It offers 44 en-suite rooms, many with lake or mountain views. Dining options include the Lake View Restaurant and the Ramblers Bar.

Summary of reviews related to the '4 Star' categoryNestled in an excellent location, The Inn On The Lake offers a serene escape with its charming accommodations. While the ambiance and facilities present a quaint experience, guests have expressed that the offerings fall short of typical four-star expectations. Several reviews highlighted issues such as malfunctioning lifts, occasional noise disturbances, and rooms that were uncomfortably cold, all of which contributed to a sense of underwhelming value for the price.

The allure of its setting is undeniable, yet there appears to be a gap between the hotel's rating and the quality of services provided. The food and overall service have been flagged as areas needing improvement to meet the anticipated four-star standards. Despite these challenges, the stay is not without merit, especially for those appreciating a less conventional hotel experience at a somewhat competitive rate of £157 per night. Overall, while The Inn On The Lake captures a scenic charm, enhancements in service and facility maintenance could elevate it to truly reflect a four-star level of hospitality.
