first impressions a glowing fire which was nice but not on a nice day is just silly, the girl on reception was rude who spoke in a European accent, never have I experienced a receptionist like it. The rooms was very in need of a lack of paint very very old fashioned and in need of some care and attention.... more

When staying at the Wordworths hotel, initial impression was great, there was a lot of character and charm to the building, as one may expect from a hotel named after one of the Greatest English romantic poets in History. However the services and standards of the hotel was really poor. Which is a shame. The rooms that we stayed in,... more

Although providing amenities of a 4 star hotel, it retains the character of a historic... more

Superb location and wonderful rooms the ww hotel has an almost tangible feeling of stepping into the past when you cross the threshold. Certainly the breakfast they provided felt as though there could still be world war 2 rationing on. A cumberland breakfast consisted of mushrooms (one) tomatoes (a half one) and sausages (one), bacon and a slice of black... more

We didn't breakfast there as there are so many beautiful places to eat in Grasmere itself - but the experience was... more
