“An absolute joy!”

Langdale Hotel

10 Aug 2007
6/7 found this review helpful

Cumbria: The Langdale Hotel, Lake District: "An absolute joy!"
Date: August 10, 2004
What can we say !!!! My husband and I have just returned from a stay at the Langdale Estate, which we thoroughly recommend. We enjoyed the leisure facilities, which lived up to our expectations. Lunch in Wainwrights especially good, we will be returning again just for the lamb!! The new bar Hobsons is very impressive and is extremely relaxing after a day's wakling around the surrounding fabulous countryside. Our room was very comfortable and most importantly clean!! The staff are very polite and extremely helpful. As we are keen walkers, the hotel is so ideally located close to the Lakes and the wonderful backdrop of the Langdale Pikes. We have now re-booked for a stay during the Christmas holidays, and will definately be returning again next Spring. Great hotel for all the family, the best we have stayed in, in the Lakes. It is extremely popular and we can see why!

“Terrible Experience!”

Langdale Hotel

25 Jul 2007
3/13 found this review helpful

My husband booked this as a spa break for my birthday- I was 35 wks pregnant. On arriving we had been placed far from the hotel and amenities despite when booking asking to be near as Im pregnant. The room had no heating at all and was freezing! They couldnt find our booking when we arrived! The room smelt damp and stale. On visiting the spa we wanted to book massages but were told as they were understaffed they had nothing for 2 weeks!!! We complained to the duty manager and asked if he could cancel our booking and refund us so we could go elsewhere, he said he would look into it but after 2 and a half hours of waiting refused as we had been in our room already - we had not touched anything and this was an excuse as he had kept us waiting. They ruined our weekend, do not stay here!

12/12 found this review helpful

Recently stayed at the Langdale Hotel, with a little anticipation reading the review below.
They must have stayed in a different hote!!!
Food was excellent, son has a nut allergy & they could not have been more helpful. Leisure facilities superb. Staff extremely helpful & polite, despite the various nationalities.
Would definately recommend this hotel to family & friends.

“Fantastic Hotel”

Langdale Hotel

23 May 2007
12/13 found this review helpful

What a fantastic Hotel. Everything was great from the room to the food. We stayed for two nights so tried both restaurants Purdeys and Terrace. The food and service on both nights was fabulous. The pool was great we even used the gym which was a first for me.

The staff were all very helpful and went out of their way to offer amazing service.

The best thing of all was the location in the Great langdale Valley.

What a place. I will certainly be back.

“Dirty Rooms. Awful food.”

Langdale Hotel

1 of 5 stars

2/12 found this review helpful

Dirty Rooms. Awful food. Don't beleive their blurb - this place may once have been a quality haven in the Lake District, but it has gone far down hill since then. Rooms very dirty. Jacuzzi Baths in some rooms not clean - squirting out filthy water when switched on. Food - worse than you could imagine.
