Wow! What a fabulous experience from start to finish! We visited for my friend’s 40th and everything was perfect! Location, service and food- just beautiful! I have coeliac disease and they were so attentive and careful and went out of their way to ensure I didn’t miss out on anything. I even had different kinds of bread- believe me, this is wildly unusual for anything GF and I felt so special! All of the food was divine. I ate the lot, but totally regretted the sugar rush later on when I had a two hour drive home :-) Everything was perfect - the best afternoon tea I’ve ever had!

This was an amazing afternoon tea, such a lovely experience with delicious food and great service. Everything was top notch with an amazing selection of teas, which even tempted my daughter who had the berry burst. The food was generous, beautiful and tasty and every item was like a mini work of art. I liked that savoury and sweet food were served separately. The scones even came wrapped up to keep warm. We were too full to eat everything but it was no issue to get the leftovers beautifully boxed to enjoy at home.

This review is strictly on the afternoon tea experience only. The food was absolutely wonderful, the lady who served food and the male staff (presumed the owner) were both very kind and friendly. I felt that the afternoon tea was an absolute treat since there was nothing to fault with, that was only until it was ruined by the rude woman who was driving past in black 4x4 (presumed female host). After we finished the afternoon tea, I decided to let my dog out from our car to let him stretch his legs before we set off, the rude woman mentioned above asked me if I was looking for a public footpath so I answered no. She then started to lecture me about the ‘no dog policy’ in the property as well as pointing a direction to the public footpath I did not ask. She drove further towards the car park and parked there, got out of her, and started to tell me off in the most rude way possible again. I explained that we just had an afternoon tea here and we’re about to leave. She then turned around started to take stuff out of her boot mumbling loud “stupid..blah blah” in the angry tone, which by the way was clear for me to hear even though I was at least a few feet away from her. I was so bewildered and frustrated at how this perfectly lovely experience went down the hill like this si quickly. Hence I took two stars off even though I did enjoy the food here. Whoever that woman was, please make sure that they cannot behave that way to a guest.

Lové dans un très joli jardin soigné, se dresse Cedar Manor, une demeure Victorienne datant de 1854. Nous y sommes accueillis par un hôte très courtois et sympathique, heureux de nous faire découvrir le fameux Tea Time si cher au cœur des Anglais. L’expérience a été à la hauteur de nos attentes, et nous avons vu défiler les différentes variétés de thé, quelques entremets, puis les sandwichs traditionnels faits maison, ainsi que les mignardises sucrées tels que les célèbres scones. Les produits étaient de qualité et locaux. Je vous recommande leur confiture de fraise qui est tout simplement délicieuse. Bref, tant les lieux que l’accueil charmant, que ce que nous avons pu déguster, nous ont véritablement ravi ! Pensez toutefois à réserver un peu en avance. Merci pour cet excellent moment et cette belle découverte d’une tradition britannique.

What can I say, the surroundings were lovely, the owner was friendly and made us feel at ease, the tea itself was simply suberb.

We had the most wonderful experience from walking through the door to leaving. The linen, china, silverware all gleaming. We had pumpkin soup followed by a mushroom vol au vent. 4 different sandwiches which were delicious. A warm fruit scone and plain scone with homemade jam and clotted cream. 5 different deserts including a warm mini rhubarb crumble, lemon meringue pie, chocolate mousse, orange cake and the lightest puff filled with creme patisserie. We had some of the deserts boxed up, even the jam and cream were put in small pots, cakes on little trays and finished with ribbon!! All I can say is WOW, the best afternoon tea we’ve ever had. Thank you and well done, cannot wait to return.

Experienced a fantastic afternoon tea. Spoiled for choice with great selection of teas to choose from, and staff showing excellent knowledge of varieties etc, (you were even able to see/smell samples of leafs in little tea caddy’s which was great fun). Freshly made soup and savouries were delicious and there were too many of the delicious cakes for us to finish in one sitting. (Thankfully they were very happy to box what was left, for us to save for later). Absolutely loved it.Colin & Nicola

We eat out at least once a week in the Lake District so are keen to try places we have never visited before and last week we booked a table at Cedar Manor. It was PERFECT!On arrival we were greeted in a warm and friendly manner and taken through the the lovely bar area. The whole place has been beautifully renovated in keeping with a period property and is immaculate throughout.The bar itself with it comfortable Knowle Sofas and open fire was glorious and the bar menu included cocktails, gins as well as all the old favourites you would expect.We were left with drinks and nibbles and furnished with the menu to make our selections.Once taken though to the dining room, which is on two levels and once again beautifully appointed and decorated, we were presented with a small tomato and basil soup before our starters arrived. Our waiter was very friendly and attentive and the service, although the restaurant was very busy, was efficient and courteous.The presentation of the food was beautiful and the tastes superb.We cannot recommend the place enough for service, food and value.Wonderful!

After 5 minutes or so we ordered our food and wine, and left to enjoy our drinks and have a relaxing chat. I ordered the steak and Sheila ordered the fish which came accompanied with the vegetables of the season and potatoes, the starters of potted shrimp and king prawns not only well presented but delicious then we were asked if we would like a short break before the main was served, the presentation of the the main was just as good and the aroma that came from the dishes was heavenly and the taste as good as it looked. So plentiful we skipped desert. We had a truly romantic evening, finished off with further drinks in the lounge after.

I walked by this inn on the way into Windermere, and was intrigued. It looked beautiful and classy, so I booked for dinner. They did not disappoint. Upon arrival, they took me (and all diners) to a separate room to relax with some snacks and have a drink...a nice way to make the meal more of an experience than just about the food. The dining room was lovely; the service attentive without being overbearing; the bread fresh and tasty, and the fish beautifully prepared. A bit more creativity with the side dishes would make it even better, but that was a small matter in an overall thoroughly pleasant interaction.

Arrived a few minutes before our booking time, was greeted by the Hosts, who took our coats and led us to our table. We were allowed time to consider our menu options before advising of our selections. Our starters were soon with us and were excellent. After clearing away after he starters, we were given a short time to chat and conversate with the hosts, before the arrival of out mains. Between us we had a selection of mains on offer, all of which were well presented and very enjoyable. Upon clearing away the mains, we were asked if we wanted time before the desserts were served, so no feeling of being rushed out. The desserts were A1 as was the whole experience. We were told we could make use of the lounge or bar area after the meal and both "Mothers" were presented with gifts of excellent crafted confection.

Small and perfectly formed, a diamond or Cedar Manor in Windemere. We have visited before, 6 years ago and enjoyed our last visit. The owners are the same, but the grounds and the rooms have all been upgraded and improved. Our suite had 2 rooms, the bed was super King and very high quality, as were all the fixtures and fittings. The on suite had a shower and a lovely spa bath. We stayed 3 nights and dined in once, the menu is not large, but sources quality local produce which the chef treats with care to produce excellent meals. Breakfasts are both continental and full English ( Cumbrian). Cooked to order, local and wonderful. Thick bacon, outstanding sausages and eggs always cooked the way it was asked. There aren't many rooms but the staffing levels are good and all guest treated as special. This hotel is the one to stay at if your visiting the Lakes.

We visited the Cedar Manor for dinner in late January 2019. It was our first visit, but hopefully not our last. We were greeted by Jonathon, who owns the hotel with his wife, Caroline. He made us welcome and settled us into a cosy sitting room for an aperitif. The restaurant was quiet but that was a plus for us. Our food was delicious and the level of service was faultless. We tried different starters and mains and shared a cheese platter to finish. Everything met our expectations and the dinner was out of the top drawer!

If you want to have dinner in style in Windermere, this is the place. You’ll place order in decorated waiting room while sipping aperitif. Interior is roomy and relaxing. We had fish starter with glasses of white wine and meat main with glasses of red. Lamb was really good while steak was little chewy. Both starters were good and each house wine were excellent. We paid 100GBP for 2 course menu for 2 person and 4 glass of wines which we thought worthwhile.

I chose to have dinner here having read the TA reviews. Oddly, I was required to provide a credit card guarantee. Nevertheless we had a warm welcome and shown to the lounge to have nibbles and aperitifs whilst perusing the table d'hote menu. A lovely amuse bouche was served before our very good starters - a garlic salad and a potted crab. The mains comprised pork in pancetta and a grilled brill - both very good. The desserts were also lovely - a refreshingly sharp lemon tart and one chocolate sponge with orange sorbet. They also had Rioja Blanco on the wine list, a particular favourite for me.

This beautiful place was tucked away, just far enough from the road to feel hidden and secluded. The gardens are amazing and wonderfully kept.

Great meal and even better service. Best dinner we had during our time in the lakes and the staff really made it special. Very reasonably priced considering the standards in the restaurant. Would highly recommend

Our trip to Cedar Manor was part of our honeymoon in the Lake District, and it truly made for a special meal. We were well looked after. and all of the food was excellent, perfectly cooked, and just the right amount. We enjoyed it so much that we returned on the last night of our trip, which was just as enjoyable. Thank you to the staff for making it such an enjoyable and memorable evening for me and my wife!

I will start with the positives. The hotel and restaurant are very well presented, a lovely place to be in. We were initially showed through to a lovely lounge area for drinks and nibbles. We ordered and went through to the dining room. The water who was looking after us was lovely, very helpful and very good at his job. I had previously told them it was my husbands birthday and they had made an effort with decorations on the table which was a nice touch. The starters were lovely, but when the main course came my husbands food was tepid at best. There was only us and anther couple eating and they had finished their main course so it wasn't as though it was really busy and they had lots to prepare. In all the time we have been married neither of us has sent any food back but we thought we would mention it as it wasn't cheap. There was no fuss and we were asked if we would like the food replaced, which we did. I realise this was our choice but this then meant we ate completely separately as new food takes time to prepare and mine would have gone cold.

Visited Cedar Manor again with four friends to celebrate a ‘special’ birthday. What a lovely evening we had! We were well looked after from start to finish by Jonathan and his staff, who were very attentive and friendly. The place is beautiful and the food was amazing. I would recommend Cedar Manor to anyone wanting something that bit extra special. Thank you for making my birthday so memorable. We will be back!

Jonathan and Caroline are absolutely fantastic hosts. We were seated in the lounge which was very relaxing and given some nibbles whilst looking at the menu. I was amazed that Jonathan gave me some gluten free nibbles and the menu was pretty much completely gluten free! I was so impressed at how much knowledge and understanding he had for people with dietary requirements. The whole evening was Wonderful, relaxed and the food was exceptional. My partner and I could not recommend this place highly enough. We will definitely be back!

I attended this week with my family for a special birthday dinner. From the moment we arrived we were wonderfully looked after by Chris. Having been shown through to a cosy room we were served drinks and our orders were taken. We were shown through to the restaurant which was lit beautifully. The table had Birthday confetti on. The food was delicious from the amuse-bouche to dessert. I was given a happy birthday plate too. We then went through to the lounge for coffee by the fire, which just finished things off perfectly for us. There is obviously a great team at work here, well done. I would not hesitate to recommend this restaurant.

I really loved walking into this restaurant and immediately felt very welcomed by the friendly owner. We were shown to the bar, where we were offered drinks and snacks and shown the menu. The restaurant itself is very romantic, candle lit and intimate. However, much to mine and my partner's huge disappointment, the food (starter and main) just did not live up to our expectations. The hors d'euovres was lacking in any kind of substance. It was 3 king prawns served with a ginger and lemon sauce, which just didn't do anything for the pallet. It was bland.

We did not stayed in the hotel but had a 3 courses meal yesterday night and could not be happier! We felt welcomed since we arrived, service was excellent and so was the attention to details. Food was great (lamb was divine!) and they offer you a complimentary nibbles on arrival, mini soup starter and mini brownies at the end. Restaurant was really romantic and felt intimate with its lovely decor. Staff was super friendly and really welcoming. Prices were really reasonable. We could not recommend this place enough! Thank you! Morgana and Raj

My husband and I had dinner in the dining room at Cedar Manor while staying there last week. The meal was excellent - like Michelin star quality food. It was all very well presented and tasted great. Dining room is small and intimate (reservations recommended to ensure a spot). They started us with a cocktail in the other main room before moving us to the dining room which was nice. Service was good. All round, a very nice evening. Highly recommended.

After a last minute decision to visit Windermere we decided to book this restaurant the night before our visit. Luckily they had availability and they were extremely helpful in offering us directions as it was our first time there. Upon arrival the staff were extremely welcoming and they took our jackets and led us to the spectacular lounge where we enjoyed a drink and some nibbles before being led to our table. To begin with the soup was delicious, a lovely appetiser before our starters. Both the chicken liver parfait and pigeon breast were served beautifully and the taste was devine. Having never tasted pigeon before I was pleasantly surprised at how tasty it was. This was soon followed by our mains which were equally as delicious. We would definitely recommend the lamb! Despite being full to the brim it was too good of an opportunity to turn down the dessert and we opted for the home made sorbet and the crème brûlée. Once again these were absolutely delicious!! We had a lovely evening and felt extremely welcome at Cedar Manor. The staff here were a fountain of knowledge about the local produce and the food they serve. Over all the night and food were truly perfect!

You need to reserve as they are always full. This restaurant offers fantastic services and a bar before dinner to wait until your food is ready sipping a good drink. Food is very tasty and prepared with care and fresh ingredients.

Cedar Manor is just wonderful. We were celebrating our anniversary and from the moment we arrived everything was superb. The welcome, the food and being able to relax after a meal with a cocktail in such beautiful surroundings takes Cedar Manor to a new level. Thank you Jonathan for making our visit to Cedar Manor so special.

Really lovely intimate place with a few tables available for non residents. We enjoyed drinks in the lounge before a lovely 3 course meal with just enough choice on the set menu. Goats curd starter was a highlight. Nice relaxed service and reasonably priced for the quality of setting and food quality. More a special occasion place rather than casual meal.

As we were staying at a different hotel that was a little off the beaten path and had two restaurants of its own to choose from, I was a little hesitant to brave driving the winding roads in the evening to dine in another restaurant. A cab was our initial option, however after a storm there was no ability to summon one, so we drove ourselves. Were we glad we did! What a lovely experience it was dining at Cedar Manor! The food was beautifully presented and tasted wonderful, using unique combinations of flavors that really hit the mark. I had the mango-coconut bhel appetizer (delicious blend of flavors) and the grilled stone bass, both of which were excellent. My husband and I sat next to another couple and struck up a conversation with them, finding that the wife had been coming to Cedar Manor for years with her family, went there for her honeymoon, and had visited with her husband periodically since. What a lovely tribute to this beautiful place! We did not see the rooms, but the couple's description implied that they were top notch. If the food was any reflection, I'm sure they certainly are. I have since checked the rooms on the internet and they seem to be just that. We were very pleased with our choice of dining (I had found the restaurant on TripAdvisor when researching prior to our trip). The staff were lovely, very knowledgeable about the food and the area in general. Definitely a must-visit, whether to dine, stay, or both! THANK YOU to Cedar Manor for making our dining experience so special!

This was my first time visiting at a 3-star Michelin restaurant as well as eating at the Chef's table. Firstly, from now on I will definitely attempt to do the Chef's table experience at a restaurant when it is available. It is a much more entertaining affair, and more interesting and informative experience than your traditional restaurant experience. Whilst preparing each of the individual and unique courses, the chef clearly explained the inspiration/ingredients behind each course. He also shared how L'enclume are trying to be more sustainable and how Simon Rogan has his own farm nearby in Cartamel to source fresh local produce for the restaurant. The chefs table experience also allows you to speak to other groups of people present and share their experience and why they are there and their opinions. It's a great experience for foodies and highly recommended. For l'enclume and Aulis Cartamel , the food is great, organic, beautifully presented and expertly prepared. My personal favourite is the Orkney Scallops and Corra lim pudding caramelised in Birch sap. This restaurant is a true English restaurant, that is worth 3 stars

So I’m not normal one to leave a review, that being said overall I was hugely disappointed with the meal I had at the Knipe Grill at Gilpin Lake House. Firstly - we were show to our table and and iPad dropped on the table. Yes this is a menu and yes I can work and iPad. But with the hotel boasts 5 stars I expect a little more interaction. -With an experienced chef David with many an accolade, unfortunately I was underwhelmed. You quote “My food is fun, there’s always a bit of a story behind it, a bit of nostalgia and playfulness” Sadly there was no story no fun. This was primarily down the the service and the lack of engagement, talking us through the menu, championing and highlighting locality, seasonally and recommendations. The level of service we received for the price paid just wasn’t up to standard. - and finally whilst I know this is a hotel with a hot tub, there is something about having a group of people in bath robes walking through the restaurant heading to the hot tub a little strange. I wouldn’t expect this from a restaurant in a 3 star Spanish hotel, let alone a 5 star very expensive hotel/restaurant in the lakes In summary the restaurant's inexperience staff led to poor service, which significantly impacted the dining experience. The lack of knowledge and attentiveness resulted in frustration and dissatisfaction. While the food showed potential, it ultimately fell short of the expected standard considering the price paid. Overall, the combination of what seemed like inexperienced staff and underwhelming food quality makes this restaurant a less than satisfying choice. Sorry for this review but unfortunately this is a true reflection of my/out experience.

We were looking for somewhere to stop for a bite to eat on our way up to the Lakes. We came across the River Bela cafe and certainly weren't disappointed! A lovely little place with friendly hosts and delicious food. All this and dog friendly too, which is a must for us. We had the lovely home baked, hand carved ham sandwiches. On the way back home 2 days later we couldn't resist calling in again, this time for a lovely cooked breakfast - scrumptious! We will definitely be returning and recommending to friends and family.

Fantastic! I’m a regular visitor to this shop and I’ve never bought anything that hasn’t been perfect. From the “Cumberland curl”, a variety of marinated chicken breasts, lamb joints, bacon (including treacle and breakfast), a variety of different pies, “chilli growlers”, marinated lamb shanks and so the list goes on. Absolutely first class. I’ve been nudged into writing this review after my husband tried their new spicy lamb pie. He said it was “excellent” with “great spices”. All this with such friendly, professional, informative service. All I can say is if you’re in Windermere don’t miss a visit.
