The best restaurants serving British food in Ambleside and Grasmere South Lakeland North West

We arrived in lovely sunshine but were disappointed to find that contrary to the impression given in the advertisement by Lakeland Retreats of sitting on your decking enjoying the sun there is no sun as the Lawns is surrounded by high trees making the interior constantly dark. You have to put the lights on for your breakfast and if you eat in later in the day then also. My partner decided to have a bath the first night but unfortunately contrary to the management company's assertion that there's a constant supply of hot water the hot water ran out and the water turned cold. This happened twice as it did to our neighbours in the adjoining Lakeland Retreats property. We normally have a cooked breakfast on a Sunday but we were appalled to find that the two frying pans supplied were pitted with rust and unusable. Finally as the season turned from summer to autumn the evenings got a little nippy. We tried to turn up the storage radiators but found that the controls are blocked by wooden brackets screwed over the radiators so you can't use them. A beautiful area but we won't be using Lakeland Retreats again if this is the standard they aspire to!

Rude staff was very blunt when we were nice. Don’t understand what the attitude was all about but sure

Really poor service with the food very poor value for money. It’s curious that a sizeable restaurant in the middle of a national tourist hotspot has only a few trip advisor reviews. Venison fritters very plain with only a lettuce leaf garnish. Avoid.

Después de 8 horas de caminata paramos aquí para tomar una pinta antes de volver al auto. La camarera tenía las habilidades de comunicación pública de alguien que no debería estar en el oficio. Sí, estamos bajo las reglas de COVID, pero no es necesario que nos ordenes, todos conocemos las reglas, solo muestra un poco de paciencia. Conduzca por la carretera y deténgase en otro lugar.
