Lovely stay

Hotel as described. 10 minutes walk into Grasmere. Free parking, although I doubt enough if hotel at capacity. Bus stop outside. Breakfast was nice & plenty of options. We had dinner one evening and it was good & good value. Dog friendly, in fact Luna felt bery welcome! We decline one days room clean in exchange for a couple of free drinks, that was a nice idea and encoraged reuse of towels etc All in all great stay

Wonderful inn, good restaurant and bar, within walking distance to Grasmere. Beautifully decorated, large rooms!
Becky, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

I loved the location of this beautiful Inn. I got a warm welcome from the team and enoyed a delicious sunday roast while waiting for my room. Room 10 has a terrible view and noise from the aircon. It is spacious and nicely decorated with a large shower room. There is free parking, wifi and good facilities in the room. Breakfast is lovely and there is a wonderful beer garden

We had a 2 night stay in December. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Room was large and comfortable. Food was great and portions generous. Free parking and WiFi were welcome. Hope to visit again soon.

The Inn is located in walking distance to the village of Grasmere, surrounded by a lovely landscape. The Family Room with the Bunk beds was spacious and very clean, located in an annex it was truely quiet. Would definitely return!

Christmas bolt hole

Great well located hotel to explore the Lakes from. Recently renovated and attractive decoration throughout. Busy Christmas period and staff worked really hard to keep everyone happy. Great for dogs as well!
Terry, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

My family enjoyed a wonderful stay at The Swan. We stayed in a spacious family room that comfortably accommodated us and our two children (bunk beds were a hit!) The room was spotless, comfortable and inviting. The restaurant included kid-friendly options, and everything was delicious. Our only regret is that we couldn't stay longer to enjoy the beautiful setting and garden. Be sure to check out the public footpath off the lane above the hotel!

Fabulous.😊We’ll be back.
Stephen, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Check in was easy. We had a family room, which was large and spacious. Very clean and well maintained. Dinner menu isn't extensive but there's enough to keep everyone happy, and what we had was delicious! Breakfast was very good too. Would definitely stay again!

M., 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Pleasant stay in a beautiful setting

Can’t really fault the stay, it was only one night, friendly staff on arrival. Room was great and a comfy nights sleep. Breakfast was superb. Only little thing that may help in future is not having to get up and leave your table to order at the bar, I didn’t want to leave my food and go to the bar to order another drink would have been nice to have some table service. Other than that a nice stay and would stay again!

Extraordinary customer service

Lovely old inn, recently renovated with lively restaurant, outdoor garden, and a very welcoming atmosphere. The customer service is extraordinary! We were waylaid by a flat tire with no support from the rental agency. The innkeepers were incredibly generous with their time, helping us get back on the road, and also showing us what makes Cumbria a special community. We will never forget our time there!
