    Absolutely stunning landscape.

    Absolutely stunning landscape. There are lots of beautiful walks from the hotel and a great tea room - the Flock Inn with wonderful views from the back seatin area. It is short walk to Stonethwaite which has a great pub and mining museum in the church. The best thing is the serenity and lack of other tourists.

    very well located if you want to stay somewhere quiet but also be in short driving distance from lots of popular hikes and Keswick town. Some of the best views around here. I would say don't stay here if you don't have a car, stay in Keswick. not sure how frequent busses are but would be a pain as the shops are 15mins away driving if you forgot the milk! again if you like boozing then stay in Keswick itself as plenty pubs / bars etc. Food is great in Keswick loads of options, good hotel restaurants etc from Rosthwaite to Keswick along main road too. also plenty of places to stop, park, hike, picnic etc as you drive straight by the lake. Very dog friendly everywhere we went. Cat Bells and High Spy are some of the friendlier climbs / hikes with amazing views and also good for your pooch!

    Beautiful walks and stunning views of the fells.

    Beautiful walks and stunning views of the fells. There is no need to use the car as there are many walks around, two pubs nearby, and a cafe. There is a regular bus from Keswick that comes through Rosthwaite to Buttermere and back. The location is excellent for walkers, but it is quite remote, so maybe not ideal for families with small children looking for kid-friendly activities.

    I love this part of the world, I never get tired of driving or hiking the valley and the surrounds no matter what the weather. It is a staggeringly beautiful place and it is sometimes hard to believe this is in England.

    The location is incredible, perfect for heading out into the surrounding hills and valleys etc. The Derwent water circular walk is a must. The walks are challenging ! (not all) and walking boots etc are a must! There are no shops in the village just one small tearoom and two pubs/hotels, Keswick is a six mile scenic drive.

    Lovely location with nice walks nearby. Just don't expect great tv reception or wi-fi signal at the hotel, but the views, scenery, location, welcome from the staff at the hotel all combined more than made up for this. We loved our stay and would love to return again at some time for another visit.

    A walkers paradise! A cozy, quirky and very well equipped little hotel for exploring the local and surrounding area. The bedroom was very comfortable and the shower was superb, hot and powerful - just what was needed after a days walking. Breakfast was plentiful with many options available from both the self serve and kitchen. All of which I had were lovely (Bircher Muesli, Smoked Salmon with scrambled eggs, overnight oats, full English, fresh croissants and bread) All staff were friendly, approachable and accommodating.

    The breakfast was good, ample selection with great service. The location of my room was perfect as I am a photographer and take a lot of gear with me and it was on the ground floor with a parking space which meant I had the freedom to come and go as I pleased. Anne and her team looked after me so no complaints there. The location of the hotel is fabulous for those wanting to explore the stunning Borrowdale valley and surrounding areas...bang on for me.

    We booked a bunk room with four beds. It was perfectly OK for a party of blokes climbing some hills. The hotel has had a lot of money spent on it and it was elegantly decorated (even the bunk room) and spotlessly clean. The food was better than standard pub grub, and good value for money. It is of course in a beautiful area. The staff were charming and friendly. Altogether a very well run establishment.

    Fabulous stay, food and staff very friendly. We loved the heated boot room so our boots and coats were dry for the day after. Perfect starting point for a hike, we did Eagle Crag, Sergeants Crag and Ullscarf one day and Grange Fell and Castle Crag the day after from the hotel.
