"The food was delicious, the ambience was wonderful and the staff was efficient, courteous and attentive to the guests' needs. We loved our stay at Ravenstone!"

"Beautifully situated on the edge of Bassenthwaite Lake, Wantandleth lodge was clean and well equipped and the bed was very comfy. Wifi was good and shower was lovely. I just couldn't get the front door to lock with the key at all, so felt quite insecure for the weekend I was there, I could see how it SHOULD lock but it wasn't having it. I was disappointed that I couldn't get down to the lake easily with my walker or mobility scooter as the paths are so gravelly its no good tying to get anything with wheels over them other than the car. Was a lovely view though from the property, very peaceful and quiet with lots of birds and trees around. Although the decor is very dark and dated it was cosy and despite the crazy internal door configuration from bedrooms to bathrooms I would highly recommend this property to anyone with better mobility than myself."

"This is our 5th stay at the pheasant Inn and will be our last! Previous visits have always drawn us back but this time, rude greeting, continued throughout dinner. Won’t go back"

"Good location, easy to get to most areas of the lakes. Modern clean facilities. Twin room a bit small for Adults. Good parking. Plenty of walking from lodge."

"Rooms require some repainting and stairwell is very dull and dark with most windows needing repair and repainting. The cocktails were fantastic though. As the restaurant closes early it would be nice to have cheese and biscuits available in the bar area in the evening "

"The breakfast menu was really good , The staff were all amazing apart from one in the last couple of mornings at breakfast. Plenty of lovely sitting areas throughout the hotel The room we had was lovely and comfortable, due to the revamping of the hotel its not as clean at it could be. But we had an amazing four days We will be going back. "

"This is a wonderful property with lots of historic charm and stunning scenery right on the doorstep! I stayed 4 nights and Karen really looked after me; delicious cooked breakfast each morning and a newly lit fire in the evenings to sit beside. She gave me a tour of her gorgeous garden and introduced me to her feathered friends; the chickens, cockerel and pheasant as well as her lovely dogs. Her knowledge of the house and area is really insightful and Karen was more than happy to advise where needed. Powter Howe is easy to find, has plenty of space for parking, and offers fantastic views facing the Skiddaws and Barf behind it. There is also a lovely short walk from the house and through woodland to Bassenthwaite Lake. Although the A66 can be heard it doesn’t detract from the beauty of the place. I would definitely recommend a relaxing stay at Powter Howe and hope to return again very soon myself. Thank you Karen, for making me feel so welcome and at home."

"Lovely little cabin! Will definitely be booking again in the future!"

"Great location with views of the lake and hills. Lots of nearby walks and a 5 minute drive from Keswick. Small, quiet site. Ideal for dog owners. "
