Cragwood was our first stop on a two week road trip, and we stayed three nights. It proved to be a great choice. Really well located with garden views across Windermere, the hotel was comfortable, friendly and a great spot to tour from. Our room was well-appointed though perhaps not as stylish as the beautiful hotel exterior might suggest. All of the staff were helpful and friendly, though we must give special mention to Daniel who looked after us in the bar (say no more) and the restaurant. If you do stay here, be sure to book the restaurant as it gets justifiably busy at peak times. The menu is limited, but quality and presentation is high, and the wine list works well with the food. Great value fine dining. Of course, you can also get food served in the extensive lounge area if the relatively small restaurant is busy. If you are looking for a good value spot in the Lake District, where often prices move ahead of the quality, then we can thoroughly recommend Cragwood.

We stayed on Tuesday 6th Feb for one night wished it could have been for longer ,it was amazing we were upgraded to the four poster room ,the decor was outstanding, the bed was Huge and very comfortable as were the pillows, tea coffee and hot chocolate provided plus bottled water biscuits and sweets , the bathroom was also excellent with beautiful fluffy towels and face clothes plus lovely toiletries, the staff were very helpful and friendly ,our only disappointment was breakfast ie lack of variety of breads ,food wasn't very hot ,grilled tomato hardly cooked at all and fried egg over cooked , the grounds, garden ect were beautifully maintained and the walk down to the lake not to be missed , we would definitely recommend this hotel to family and friends ,and will without doubt visit again .many thanks .

Staff could not have been more helpful or friendly. The room, although not an accessible room was large and had a lovely garden view. Breakfast was absolutely delicious….and freshly cooked to order. The meal we had in the bar was also delicious, and served with a smile. The room had plenty tea and coffee, bottled water and as an extra, a jar of boiled sweets. The drawers contained lots of extras such as a sewing kit.

Our stay was only one night but it was a perfect end to a family weekend. Everything that we had requested; a crib and one of the rooms to be on the ground floor because of one of our party struggling with stairs , was done without any additional conversation or hesitation. We were greeted by friendly and helpful staff. We were informed on arrival that it was busy so to book dinner or to get bar food but to be conscious of the time; all of which helped us plan our evening. If you want old school English country charm and beautiful views and gardens then I would highly recommend it.

Spectacular English estate in an area that is astoundingly beautiful. The grounds of Cragwood are stunning! You can walk straight down to the lake and take in the surrounding countryside. It's so peaceful. Really comfy room which was a good size. Our ground floor room opened up onto a lovely little sitting area with gardens outside. The food we had for dinner was exquisite and breakfast was also great. Could have easily stayed there for a week. Staff were really happy, helpful and very obliging. We were blessed with fabulous weather too. Amazing stay! Highly recommend!

Beautiful hotel and well kept gardens and grounds with views over Lake Windermere. Good food served on an evening and then cooked and continental breakfast. Cosy, well stocked bar on an evening with lovely furnishings and a real log fire with leather and velvet seating. Reception area comfortable lounge to read the daily newspapers after breakfast. Then a walk down to the lake from the grounds. Staff approachable, professional and kind. Spacious, warm and clean room with beautiful view. Would love to stay again and enjoy the outdoor seating area overlooking the lake when the weather improves. Dog friendly but mindful of other guests.

I had the pleasure of staying at the hotel yesterday, and overall, it was a memorable experience. The hotel's picturesque surroundings provided a stunning backdrop for our stay, making it a serene and enjoyable family retreat. One of the highlights of our stay was the comfort of the beds and the quality of the bedding. It allow every member of our family had a restful night's sleep. Our boys were also pleasantly surprised by the thoughtful amenities provided for them. The small teddy bears left in the room were an instant hit with the kids, and they appreciated the gesture immensely. The selection of teas, coffee and hot chocolate available was a warm and comforting touch, especially on a cooler rainy evenings.

Home from the exterior was lovely. Grounds were well-maintained. Breakfast was fairly good and the waitstaff at breakfast were attentive and pleasant.
