I used to stay regularly at this hotel in the 1990's but had not frequented its doors with a child in tow. My husband, daughter (9) and I went for a walking break in July 2007. The hotel had not changed much - same welcoming atmosphere as ever. The rooms had been updated and the dining room had been decorated,...... more

We booked the hotel having read the previous reviews and stayed for two nights. Overall it is a very pleasant hotel - friendly staff, clean rooms and a good location in the Lakes.

Just returned from a fantastic weekend at Skelwith Bridge. The room was lovely with great views, very friendly staff and the food in the restaurant is fantastic (as is the local bitter on tap!). Will definitely stay again. more

Centrally located to provide an excellent selection of walks. The staff are all knowledgable about the area and attractions and always ready to help. Topped off by great food and hospitality, what more could we ask for. more

Once again another very happy time spent with the family at Skelwith. No matter what the Lakes may throw at you as far as the weather is concerned, the warm welcome you get from the capable and helpful staff, wonderful log fires and fabulous meals make you want to come back - home from home. Thanks more

We stayed in this hotel last weekend and had a truely terribly time. The staff were obnoxoius and rude and the rooms dated and unclean. For the price we were expecting a truelg magical weekend in the lakes but what we found was nothing more than a Blackpool B&B in the mountains. more

I'm more used to staying in hotels where all the rooms are the same, but the rustic charm and the open fires made for a nice change! We had a four-poster room which was nice and spacious, and the jacuzzi bath was excellent. The weekend dinner... more
