Such a lovely place to rest our head for the evening. Walking distance to the train station where we met our tour guide for the tour of Hilltop (Beatrix Potter’s house). The breakfast was absolutely delish! Staff was so friendly! Our room was spacious and so very clean. Also, our bed was quite comfortable. My daughter and I loved this place.

Great breakfast, comfy rooms, friendly staff

The staff were really friendly during our stay, the breakfast was fantastic and service was great. We were so disappointed to discover on the last day that there was another side to the breakfast menu which we hadn't turned over! We will have to return and sample the breakfast pancakes! :) Thanks for a great, comfortable and friendly stay.

Refined Hotel High Quality Food and Service

The staff service at the Lamplighter is superb from reception to restaurant service. The hotel is far from the usual style with a beautiful building in a great location at the top end of Windemere's high street. We dined at the hotel and the food was lovely, well priced and the staff very attentive. Breakfast was superb with lots of choice and the quality equal to the best we have had on our 4 week holiday so far.

The property was lovely. Wasn’t keen on check in, no clear indication on where to go / what to do and was standing around puzzled with no staff in sight for a brief time. Bed and pillows was very uncomfy. Black marks on pillow case and dog biscuits on bedroom floor.

Exceeded expectations

We had a great stay over a weekend here as a family. 2 adults a 2 year old and our dog (he's big). We had king bed, the room was clean, comfy and nice bathroom, just what we needed. We chose to eat in the restaurant one night the food was great and the breakfast which was included was amazing, so many options. They were lovely hosts and great family friendly stay and really dog friendly. We would definitely stay again.
