Borrowdale Gates Hotel

This is our second time at Borrowdale Gates as it is located in a very gorgeous location. Do take care to select a room with a view of the fields as we were originally allocated a room overlooking the road & refuse bin. We requested a different room and paid for the upgrade. Dinner was superb, the hotel staff did a great job decorating the table as a birthday surprise for a family member. Breakfast was good, we had a good view of the garden and saw a few rabbits hopping around, woodpeckers and many local birds in the garden. The nearby walks were so lovely, the hills, fields and many sheep. Great place to recharge and enjoy nature. x

Great location, quiet and scenic. Hotel small enough for personal service, good rooms well decorated and comfortable, easy parking.

Very unhelpful manager, refused to let me reserve a specific table on my wife’s birthday (despite this being no problem in past years under the old management). She told me that it was an unreasonable request! Also told me that ‘your food will taste the same whichever table you sit at’ . The most annoying thing was that there were three tables obviously being kept for certain guests. There was no room cleaning during our stay. At breakfast I saw four guests leaving reception with two toilet rolls each. Obviously their rooms were not serviced either! The breakfast and dinner on the first day were very poor, fortunately much better next day, (different chef?) This is not a cheap hotel to stay at. In the past it maintained a high standard, otherwise we would not have returned. Unfortunately the standard of service was quite inadequate on this occasion.

Loved the room decor,bathroom,comfortable bed,amazing view, good access for our dog,lovely fresh breakfast,lots of choice and suitable for gluten free.

The bathroom floor stayed very wet for the entire time we were there after taking showers on the evening. Small portion of gf cooked breakfast.

Beautiful location. Friendly staff made us feel very welcome. Excellent evening meal - the food was delicious.

Ein hervorragendes Hotels mit sehr guter Küche. Hilfsbereites, aufmerksames Personal
