After staying in a rather unsuitable B&B for just one night (instead of 4) we found the Cragwood Country House Hotel by chance on our way to Windermere. The reception by the manager was remarkable (don't confuse him with Bill Murray!) and even though we were a bit reluctant to stay there due to the fact that the rates are... more

We booked a weekend here in April 2008 for our wedding anniversary and it was fantastic. The hotel was so relaxing and the staff can not do enough for you. It is a pleasant change to find staff so willing, yet unobtrusive. They all multi task, reception, bar and restaurant which was brilliant. The food served is of the finest... more

My husband and I booked the Cragwood Hotel for our wedding - it fitted our requirements - a Lake District hotel with lake frontage and the possibility of an evening reception. The Cragwood is a fabulous location for a summer wedding - you can have the ceremony outside in the garden as they have a licensed gazebo. As the hotel... more

We stayed here for one night as the Merewood (its sister hotel) was fully booked. Like the Merewood, the Cragwood Hotel is a very attractive property (on the outside) but unlike the Merewood the inside is quite austere. The reception rooms in the rear of the building are very plain and almost institutional, like an old school or nursing home.... more

Have just returned from a three night midweek special. Had a fabulous time despite the weather although we didn't see that much rain just overcast. Hotel was everything I expected and more. Food was fabulous. The hotel staff couldn't do enough for you. Our room was in the newer part of the building. Very comfortable. Wish I could have stayed... more

I'm really surprised at all the good reviews - our stay was the pits! We arrived and it was completely empty apart from the receptionist, and when we wanted to check out in the morning we couldn't find anyone. It is really tired and shabby, and I don't think it has had a refurb since at least the 80's. Our... more

Excellent hotel. Beautiful old building which has been kept in appropriate, traditional period style. Rooms very clean and tidy. Staff very polite and friendly. The 4 course dinner is unbeliveable - brilliant top food prepared by top chefs. Gorgeous grounds with access to the lake shore. I have stayed in many hotels in the UK and abroad and have to... more

We spent last weekend at this hotel at a friends wedding.. perfect setting, service and food. If you are thinking of getting married in the Lake District - do not hesitate in giving them a call.. We intend to go back for a long weekend soon... more
