At first I felt disinclined to write a review of this place, because while ingredients, cooking and value for money was good, the atmosphere left a lot to be desired. You have to turn up an hour before dinner, to make what limited choice that the menu allows. You then sit nursing your pre -dinner drink in typically stuffy country... More

Amazing location looking out over Esthwaite Water in classic Beatrix Potter Lake District country. Very comfortable well provided bedroom and en-suite, great food both at dinner and breakfast with super outlook from the dining room and perfect lounge in which to relax with gorgeous log fire. A warm welcome and two gorgeous dogs all added to a great stay. More

I cant fault this delightful small hotel. Our visit started with a warm welcome from the owner ,Richard and the 2 resident Old English Sheepdogs.

Stunning views from our room and attention to detail everywhere made it a... More

My husband and I stayed for 3 nights earlier this month. We were greeted by the owner/chef Richard, who was very friendly. He showed us to our room and told us the time for breakfast the next morning. Our en-suite room had a nice view, which was one of the things I was hoping for. I couldn't be more pleased.... More

A wonderful location, beautiful house and excellent meals, what more could you want. We had a spacious private bathroom, but it was not en-suite, although only a few steps away from our room. Suitable alterations can be difficult to achieve in such an old building, but it is the only criticism of our stay. Everything else was excellent. The hotel... More

We stayed for two nights in May over a weekend and could not have wished for anywhere nicer. The room was fantastic and quaint, very quiet and welcoming - with complimentary chocolates and sherry (!). Richard, the chef and manager, was very friendly and chatty and put us at ease telling us the times for dinner and breakfast etc -... More

My wife and I have just come back from a stay at Ees Wyke and I cannot speak highly enough of the food and service the hotel provided. Don't book this hotel if you want modern huge rooms, book for the food and the views. I can't understand the negatives in some of the other reviews as the rooms although... More

This was my favorite vacation-- ever. The Lake District is breathtaking and enchanting, and this B&B is nestled right in the heart of it. This country house is quite charming and I'm at a loss for words to convey how lovely our experience was! I will say that it compliments the Lake District perfectly. It's not super modern with flat... More
