Yes, it is rather expensive. But you get there everywhere in the Lake District. We stayed for a couple of nights during our recent tour of the lakes and really enjoyed it. The room was slightly shabby but was clean and cozy. The highlight was the pub with great food which we enjoyed on both nights. Highly recommend and will... more

We usually stay in Coniston, but decided to camp at Hawkshead for a change. The Queens Head was by far the busiest place on the Saturday night, so we ate here. Initially, I thought the food presentation was a bit sparse and what you might find in a London Gastro spot..... However, it tasted fabulous and was just enough for... more

We stayed at the Queens Head for a five day break following recommendations for the food and weren't disappointed. The varied cooke to order menu was all delicious, and was great value when combined wtih the dinner, bed & breakfast offer. We had an upgrade to the four poster room, which was clean and homely and we enjoyed the comfortable... more

My husband and I booked a weekend in a luxury suite at the Queens Head. We found the staff to be polite and helpful but were somewhat disappointed with our 'luxury suite' and the limited time slot for breakfast. Breakfast is 8.15-9.15am. The breakfast itself was lovely, but we found the time slot limiting. A couple of young men arrived... more

We visited this hotel at Christmas for a drink at lunchtime while touring around the Lake District. We have spent several Christmas's in the Lakes but have never been in the summer period. It was so lovely at Christmas we decided we would book three nights in June following our wedding. We booked the best room and it came up... more

ike much of the Lake district this place is so overpriced due to the huge demand. Credit where it's due - staff were friendly & food was decent (not brilliant but probably still the best in the village). Our room (in the Brown Cow annexe) I'm afraid was our big disappointment. The decor is awful; carpets in the bathroom, no... more

We had stayed in the lakes for aweek self catering but the weather was so good we couldn't bear to leave and having read the reviews for the Queens Head - and being particularly impressed by the restaurant reviews we decided to try and book a room for Saturday 30th May - we were lucky getting the last room -a... more

We were really disappointed with the quality of food in this pub restaurant. It looked so welcoming and cosy, and with prices well into the restaurant bracket we thought we would have a lovely meal there. However, the food was really average quality even for a pub. Bland sauces with our meal, oven chips not home made. The final nail... more

Both the website and brochure promised something that unfortunately the Queens Head could not quite deliver. The staff, from arrival to departure were great in every way. The majority were very friendly & attentive. No faults there whatsoever. Our room, 10 is a small room which I guess is to be expected of an old building and was not a... more
