The Inn On The Lake
About
The Inn on the Lake invites guests to a tranquil retreat nestled within 12 acres of woodland and overlooking three pristine lakes. With 76 comfortable rooms offering en‑suite bathrooms, satellite TV and Wi‑Fi, the hotel caters to families, couples and solo travelers alike. A highlight of the property is its varied dining experience – from the Lakeside Bar and Willow Bar to the acclaimed Willow Restaurant, all serving seasonal menus that include vegetarian, vegan and gluten‑free options. In addition to daily afternoon tea and room service, the hotel hosts regular tribute nights, Christmas celebrations, weddings and private events in its spacious function hall. The building itself carries a rich heritage: originally a 1930s lakeside tearoom, it served the RAF during World War II before being rebuilt into the modern hotel we see today. Guests can wander the lakeside terrace, explore the fountain deck, or simply unwind by the firepits while enjoying panoramic lake views. The hotel's nearby countryside – the Shorne Woods Country Park and surrounding parks – offers excellent walking and cycling opportunities, making it a perfect base for both relaxation and outdoor adventure.
