“Lovely!”

Skelwith Bridge Hotel

2 May 2006
4/4 found this review helpful

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.

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.

“Return to Skelwith Bridge”

Skelwith Bridge Hotel

1/1 found this review helpful

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

“Terrible obnoxious staff”

Skelwith Bridge Hotel

0/17 found this review helpful

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.

“Birthday treat for the wife...”

Skelwith Bridge Hotel

11 Feb 2006
2/2 found this review helpful

Hotel and room were clean. The staff were friendly, and the food was excellent.

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 bed and breakfast deal with complimentary Sunday lunch was excellent value. The dinners alone were worth most of the price.

The wife loved it. We'll definitely be going back, and getting the child looked after by the grand-parents again!
