A warm welcome was received when we arrived, it was clear that it was a friendly and relaxed atmosphere. We were in a group of 5, not having stayed in that part of the Lakes before but were soon given lots of info.. The rooms were lovely a very high standard throughout. We spent a lovely evening in the hotel... more

We stayed one night and had the spacious attic room and enjoyed a fabulous meal with plenty of drinks to choose from. Staff were very helpful when deciding where to walk and very friendly as were the locals who frequent the pub. Breakfast was very good with all produce being locally sourced. We'd definitely stay again and explore the area... more

Have never done an Internet review of a hotel before. Which shows how impressed we were with this place. Extremely welcoming hotel where they couldn't do enough for you. We even joined in the pub quiz with the locals. Also has pool table and darts to keep you amusedin the evening. Delicious home cooked food. Caters for vegetarians. Within easy... more

Great hotel, clean and friendly, with a great breakfast included. We booked through hotels.com, but when we got there they had double booked us, the hotel was very apologetic, but it wasn't their fault, and they tried to find us alternative accomodation. Book this hotel direct not with hotels.com more

The food is a must. The chef made a geat effort both with varying the menu on a daily basis and quality was not sacrified for... more

Lutwidge Arms Hotel, Cumbria. November 14th/17th 2008. We have just returned from an excellent weekend stay with 12 friends, all vintage car enthusiasts. Our room was very comfortable with a lovely soft bed and pillows, just like home. It had a spacious bathroom which was well supplied with towels etc. The whole atmosphere was very welcoming with excellent food, prepared... more

Just returned from 3 nights at the Lutwidge Arms. We had a brilliant stay. Less than 10 mins from Wasdale Head & therefore great for Scafell, Great Gable & most of the popular walks. As a party of 8 mixed experience walkers we like a walking challenge but also enjoy proper home comforts afterwards. This place was spot on. We... more

I have just returned home from a walking break with 3 nights in the Lutwidge Arms. Mick, his family and all the staff could not do enough to help us and make our group feel welcome. This went as far as drying our wet gear and lending us some of his own. The food is excellent, with the chef happy... more
