Ravenstone Manor Hotel in Allerdale

This place is absolutely amazing. We came here for a birthday trip and I would not hesitate to return. It is VERY dog friendly so if you do not like dogs it may not be the best place. Outside is a dog washing sink which has warm water to wash off muddy paws. On the entrance there are fresh clean dog towels every morning which is fantastic. They will even offer dog beds and bowls if you require them. Every single staff member we came across was so friendly and gave a lot of attention to the dog. The room was small but comfortable. We did ask for a thinner quilt as the one we had was too thick and they were more than happy to accommodate. The lovely lounge area overlooking the scenic view is so peaceful. They have a beautiful lit fire in the evenings and lots of drinks on offer. The breakfast included is absolutely amazing. The continental selection is minimal but the cooked breakfast was fantastic. The options were amendable and they did as much as they could to accommodate you. They even brought a sausage cut up for the dog ! I genuinely think this place is fantastic and i will definitely return. Thank you ravenstone manor for a lovely birthday trip !

Lovely relaxed, welcoming, and warm atmosphere. Nothing too much trouble. Staff, food, hotel, location, all lovely.

This was our second time visiting Ravenstone Manor with our boy Reggie and we have left just as pleased as the first time we visited. The hotel is so dog friendly, you might expect it to smell a little "doggy" but it absolutely doesn't. It is very much a country hotel with lots of little touches such as dog towels, a dog bath, games in the lounge and dog biscuits at the ready! We had dinner in the restaurant for both nights and I can highly recommend the Ham Hock and Garlic prawns starters. The Chicken Supreme, Steak and Ale pie (which had the most amount of meat in a pie we have ever seen), the Pan seared Duck breast with grilled plums, and the Chicken Tikka were all immense. Plus you have to try a Garlic Rose! The chef was also kind enough to do a dish that wasn't on the menu on our request which was at the sister hotel opposite. The sticky toffee pudding is also to die for! Dodd Woods is next to the hotel which was lovely to take the dog to stretch his legs. Thankyou Alison and Team, we will be back again in the future for more

Fabulous place with stunning views over Bassenthwaite to the west. Delicious cooked breakfast with plenty of options available, as well as buffet etc. Evening food was good too - they do a curry of the day to add to a good range of standard options. Staff were lovely and friendly. This place is a great find.

Can't praise highly enough, return visit

Great place to pop into for a couple of beers after a day walking. Lovely atmosphere, proffessional staff and decent prices for the area. Keswick itself is rather over priced.. IMO

Excellent. Great value. It says home to me

You can not go wrong with the Lake District, beautiful location, everything else similar to other places. Doesn't stand out. The usual limited menu served in most of these place. Rooms can do with an upgrade. Nice bar and seating area.

We had a wonderful experience this weekend. The rooms are beautiful - we even had two red squirrels feeding on the bird feeders outside our room. The food is top notch and the staff are all excellent. There is a superb walk to Dodd Fell direct from the hotel which is well worth doing. Can’t wait to return.

Nothing but good things to say about Ravenstone Manor, room 9 was very large, very comfy bed, walk in shower plus a bath, evening meal was spot on, lovely breakfast, staff friendly, bar and lounge lovely room with a view plus the snug with open fire, all dog friendly, Belfast sink to rinse dogs off, designated poo bin, really is dog friendly. Hotel in great location so well worthy of full marks. My only criticism was ripping my puffa jacket on the rose bushes as I got my bags out of the boot ( so beware )
