If you stay here, just know that it’s an older space, but it’s also beautiful. They have a great area to gather and games to play. The property has a proper garden area with lots of places to sit. We would absolutely go back.

Great for overnight stay with dog. All staff friendly and helpful. Hotel is dated and rooms could be cleaner however bed was comfortable and bar and dining area clean with great breakfast choice. Large enclosed gardens and 15 minute walk into Keswick from back of the hotel (off road country walk)

Just had a great stay at the Derwentwater Hotel and great staff and service. In particular a huge thanks to Ronnie and Amy who went out of their way to take time and assist us getting to a local wedding when all other taxi firms were unavailable due to storms and road closures.. Having excellent staff and friendly check in made the stay enjoyable and we will be returning to the hotel again. Fully recommend this hotel. Thanks all.

Property photos bear no resemblance to actual hotel. The hotel needs a lot of investment. Hotel is shabby, dated and needs a refurb. Extremely basic. Good breakfast. Sheets and towels clean. Good parking and easy walk to Keswick town. Right next door to Derwent Hill. Drinks prices very reasonable. Garden is lovely. Ideal for walkers and dog owners. Wouldn't go there to be pampered....

Big room with good view. Minor niggles with television picture, fluctuating flow in shower, extract not working in bathroom. Good location and gardens. Hotel overall in need of refurbishment. Cooked breakfast ok, other options limited. The instant coffee was a major negative as I like good coffee with my breakfast.

In a poor state inside ,rooms not serviced . The staff are very pleasant and the grounds are very nice. In a good position to walk into Keswick. The price you pay to stay ,then they want you to pay for parking per night we don’t think is very good.

Very helpful staff on reception. Great evening meal. Lovely choice and fresh & hot. Excellent service too… Our room overlooked the lake and was fabulous… Whilst the hotel is a little tired the staff were not at all. They were great. A great place for walking around the lake .

Be warned, the beautiful property you see in the photos of the building in grey brick stone is not where you will be staying. We were completely catfished with the interior and exterior photos shown. That is actually the property across the street and the one we stayed in was very dirty and run down. I would not recommend staying here. I'm surprised Expedia allows those photos to be used when it's not the correct building.
