"Really cosy and a lovely place to stay - I stayed on my own and the staff were friendly, the food was good and the room was really comfortable and spacious. The location is great as there are walks starting in Glenridding meaning you haven't got to drive anywhere and it was a quieter area. My only grumble is that it would have been nice to use the bath but it was so grubby and I didn't fancy laying in the tub."

Vickie was so welcoming and very helpful, going out of her way to sort out our parking. The property is beautiful, comfortable and cosy and immaculate. Just a short walk into Penrith’s centre and all the pubs and shopping. Just up the road is an M&S food hall. I would love to stay here anytime.

Staff were very welcoming and attentive. Dinner was very good and again helped along by staff who obviously enjoy their work. Breakfast also excellent. Only issue is finding parking space p, but again staff did a great job making the process as easy as possible

1692 Wasdale was the highlight of not just our visit to the Lake District but our entire holiday, which also included the Gotham and the Lowry in Manchester and the Montcalm in London. This place blew them out of the water. If we lived in the UK and not on the other side of the world, we would have already booked regular stays for the rest of the year. As it is we will be visiting again when next in England.
It's immaculately clean and well fitted out. Every inch of the place speaks to the...

The room was spacious, modern and clean. A restaurant was onsite, and the hotel is adjacent to Ambleside pier where you can catch the ferry. The service was excellent, with polite staff. Overall, I would certainly stay at the Regent again and recommend it for anyone visiting Lake Windermere and the national park.
