Ambiance, peaceful, service , food , staff, accommodation all 10/10 faultless beautiful setting food all top notch owner chef clearly prides himself on providing the best possible experience. We were met with a cafetière of coffee and fresh scones and enjoyed them in a delightfully comfortable sitting room overlooking the lake. This was the start of 2 enjoyable days. Staff were all friendly and helpful nothing was too much trouble all the bedrooms were beautiful the dining room is a delight breakfast beautifully presented and prepared in a gorgeous setting. And the evening meal equally enjoyable in a relaxing bubble of tranquility chef even took into account my wife’s dislike of garlic and presented her with food she enjoyed . We will definitely return wish the hotel every success well deserved let’s hope I can get in next time we book- Thankyou

We booked here for a lunchtime on the last day of our holiday and to celebrate our 55th wedding anniversary. The pub is in a lovely location and the staff on the whole were welcoming and friendly. We ordered steak and ale pie which is a favourite of ours and we found the contents of the pie absolutely delicious. It was made with 2 different types of pastry, shortcrust for the base, and flaky (?) pastry for the lid. The lid just melted in the mouth but the shortcrust base/ holder for the contents was very hard. It was accompanied by what seemed to be freezer chips and peas, and a pot of packet gravy, which was a real letdown. We live in North Yorkshire which we have always felt was an expensive area for eating out, but for a lot lower price of under £20 each we would have received home made chips and a choice of veg. Such a shame as it was meant to be a treat and the skill is clearly there as evidenced by the contents of the pie. Not too good for us this time I'm afraid.

Back at YHA Hawkshead for a 3 night staying in a private room. We were in the Courtyard building. We used the self-catering kitchen and found the facilities to be great. The outdoor shower was a new addition - fun to take a shower in a corrugated tin shed in the outdoors! We had a few games of Pool in the games room one evening as well as a game of Scrabble in the courtyard lounge. It was lovely to encounter families with young children who were in the teepees and camping pods. We ourselves cycled from the hostel to Grizedale forest on one day and walked around Tarn Hows on another. Also got to swim in Coniston lake and in High Dam tarn. A great summer break in the Lakes!

Went here for just an overnight on our wedding anniversary.We are in our 70's (just in my wife's case) and celebrating 23 years of a 'second chance' Room was perfect with large balcony, enabling us to make the most of a day of sunshine. Chocolates and wine left for us and everything spotless. From checking in to dining through advice on the area to checking out - staff were perfect in their attention. Had table as requested next to windows, for the view, for dinner Restaurant service also could not be faulted. In Ireland for a wedding on our anniversary next year but will need another visit here well before then.

Our views on our visit to The Belsfield Hotel are rather mixed. It is an imposing and impressive building in a fantastic location overlooking the lake. Check in was good with all required information provided. Unfortunately upon entering our room ( room 30 ) we were disappointed as it was not as I expected. I had booked a suite as we have done several times at other hotels . Previously we have found a suite has consisted of a separate room for relaxing with the bedroom attached. On this occasion it was a larger bedroom with a sitting area and small table for two. The hotel’s website does state that a suite may , or may not , have a separate lounge area and so on this occasion I accepted we had drawn the short straw . No issues there . However the website also states the suites offer stunning views and a roll top bath . There was no roll top bath as promised, only an older standard plastic panelled bath. As we are planning on restyling our bathroom assessing a roll top bath in practice was one of the features that swayed our decision to stay here . With regard to the stunning views . When sitting at the table in our room having a coffee before breakfast our view was what appeared to be an old , derelict greenhouse / storage building . Not exactly an appealing view to begin your day . When I mentioned this at check out I was told by the member of staff that another company deals with the website description and so nothing to do with him . A rather strange and dismissive response and not the lasting impression you want when leaving the hotel . Overall the hotel is a very enjoyable place to visit with several areas to relax on the ground floor . Sitting on the terrace overlooking the lake was fantastic and would thoroughly recommend it . A special mention for Lucien who did a fantastic job of providing cocktails and was very knowledgeable and proficient in this . A credit to the hotel . The hotel has so many good points that may , for some , outweigh the negatives around the room but unsure if we would return or recommend.

1. The location of the hotel is very good. It takes only 10 minutes to walk to the cruise ship terminal. There are many restaurants nearby and the accommodation is very convenient. The room is large and there is a living room, unexpected, but the living room side is on the bedside, next to the street, sooner or later, some noisy, especially the UK speed is generally faster, pay attention to it. Breakfast is prepared in advance bread yogurt cereal milk, some in the refrigerator, some in the locker, do not have too much expectations. 2. If you come by car, you will need a parking card with the front desk, which costs £3 a day. There are unlimited parking. There are several places to park. It is actually very convenient. When you leave, you can go to the parking lot to drive first, and put the key and parking card at the front desk when you come back.
