Lakeside Hotel & Spa
About
Nestled on the southern shore of Lake Windermere, the Lakeside Hotel & Spa is a timeless landmark that effortlessly blends 17th‑century heritage with contemporary luxury. From the moment you step across the polished oak doors, you feel the warm hospitality of a true Lake District home that still serves the same guests who once received a historic travel‐stamp in their luggage. The hotel offers a full range of rooms and suites – from delightful lake‑view rooms with private balconies to spacious family suites that open onto the landscaped gardens. All accommodations boast modern amenities while retaining classic details such as timber beams and period fireplaces, ensuring a comfortable yet character‑rich stay. The highlight for many visitors is the Elemis spa, opened in 2020, which features a tranquil glass‑roofed terrace and a pool fed by natural lake water. The spa garden wind’s softly scented rose hips and aromatic herbs, giving guests a holistic wellness experience that feels almost identical to walking along the lake shore. Coupled with award‑winning dining options – from the rustic Muddy Boot Pub to the sophisticated Lakeview Restaurant and the contemporary Ruskin’s Brasserie – guests have everything to indulge their senses. The hotel’s location is a major attraction in its own right. Just a stone’s throw from the water’s edge, the Lakefront Path offers an inviting promenade for long walks, sunset strolls or a leisurely afternoon picnic. Historic walking routes like the West Windermere Way begin right at the front door, while the picturesque conservatory and private gardens provide a haven of calm for tea breaks and garden tours. In short, the Lakeside Hotel & Spa is the perfect base for exploring the Lake District’s natural beauty, while offering a blend of luxury, history, and world‑class wellness that will leave any guest feeling refreshed and inspired.
