Nestling in a stunning rural setting in the historic Rydal Valley amidst the fells, this grand Victorian building was built as a farm house in 1848 from the stones of ancient Rydal Hall, before being converted into a Country Guest House in the early 1930's. Set in our own 2 acre gardens Crow How is the perfect base to explore the beautiful Lake District with many of the popular fell walks from our door.
Fantastic stay

A Little Hidden Gem
Reviewed By 922lynnegJust returned from a lovely stay at Bradburys of Blackpool. We were welcomed with a hot drink and a slice of cake on arrival which was a lovely touch and the staff were very friendly. Room quite small but adequate for a 2 night stay and very clean & nicely furnished. Great shower too with complimentary soap, shower gel, shampoo & conditioner. Breakfast was superb with a good selection of hot & cold foods. Bradburys is conveniently located for all local amenities & if you like a social club there is one round the corner from the hotel called Hotel & Apartments Social Club. Acts on every night plus bingo and reasonably priced drinks. We will definitely stay here again but next time will book a bigger room!! ? Thanks for a lovely weekend.

With Waterhead Pier handily opposite and an easy stroll from Ambleside centre, The Waterhead Inn is an ideal springboard into the magnificent Lake District and gives many an option, whether you’re stopping off for a relaxing drink, enjoying a spot of good, home-cooked food with superb views to match or winding down with a pub stay away.

Tuck into our stand-out Cumbrian fare and enjoy a great choice of hot and cold drinks inside our relaxed bar and dining areas or from our outdoor terrace with its unparalleled lake views.
Disappointing stay
Reviewed By p0lly222We’ve stayed at this hotel a number of times in the past but our most recent visit was v disappointing. There had been changes to the service since we last visited meaning that there was no longer table service and everything had to be ordered at the bar.There was an extremely loud door bell type noise that went off every time the food was ready to be collected which made the place feel cheap and not relaxing. On our second night one of the waiters was very rude in telling us that we must collect our bottle of wine and glasses from the bar. We had ordered at the till and no one had told us to go to the bar for wine in fact the night before it has been brought to us. The waiter pretty much shouted that it’s not table service and that he was ‘too busy’ to bring our drinks over even though there was a maximum of 2 tables in at the time. The venue has gone from a v nice hotel to a cheap pub style service yet the prices have remained high. It is definitely no longer worthy of 4 stars.

Situated at the top of the hill in between Lake Windermere and Hawkshead Village, surrounded by beautiful scenery, popular walking and cycling trails and of course the countryside which Beatrix Potter drew her inspiration from. We are a classic, yet contemporary Lake District Inn, which has recently been renovated and lovingly restored to its former glory. We now have 14 beautiful en-suite bedrooms, which are a selection of superking size, family and twin rooms, all rooms have power showers, 32" flat screen TVs, tea and coffee facilities and everything you would want from Lake District Inn. We are passionate about the Lakes, and strive to produce a local menu, sourcing as much produce as possible from the bountiful area in which we sit, be that the Real Ales, the game for our Huntsmans Hot Pot or the sausages for our Cumbrian Breakfast which of course no true Lake District Inn would be without. We would like to welcome all to our little Inn, which offers dog friendly accommodation for those wishing to bring their dog away for a holiday in the Lakes. Whether you are popping in for a pint or coming to stay in the Lake District Inn, our doors are open and our fires are on. Food is served all day, 12 noon to 2pm, 6pm until 9pm.

Lovely Hotel
Reviewed By Fiona RI stayed with my two young sons at Howarth House over the Jubilee Bank Holiday. I had a double bed and adjacent to this was a bunk bed for my sons. The decor was nice, each room had a TV and the beds were comfy. The rooms were cleaned and were cleaned/tidied daily. A hairdryer and complimentary toiletries were included. Tea and coffee provided in the room. The bathroom had a bath and shower and the towels were lovely and soft. Breakfast was delicious with a choice of cereal, fruit, croissants or a full english breakfast. Juice, tea and coffee were offered. A lovely stay. The owners have dogs which were gorgeous. Howarth House is beautiful, and very close to the local attractions (beach, cinema, pool, arcades, pier etc). Would love to stay again.

Less Than Average
Reviewed By loular09We had previously stayed here some years ago and had a lovely time so we were excited about returning. What a shock when we arrived! The once privately owned hotel has now been taken over by a hotel chain and it is sadly very obvious. There is an overall lack of enthusiasm by the staff, absolutely zero customer service and they all look so miserable. On arrival we were 15 minutes early ( check -in is at 3pm) and whilst we didn’t expect to go to our room before then we thought there may be a possibility….no such luck! The lady on reception, once she acknowledged our presence, told us quite bluntly to sit in the bar as housekeeping hadn’t finished our room. Suddenly at bang on 3pm it was ready!! On the hotel website it states food is served daily from 07:30 and all menus in house state the same but breakfast wasn’t served until 8am and despite us asking one day if we could eat at 07:30 ( we were out on an early trip ) the hotel refused. There was absolutely no flexibility in staff approach to making our stay a good experience. We booked a Superior Double room ( Rm 11 ) and even though it was clean and comfortable I doubt very much it was superior room, it was tiny and very cramped. The food is mediocre at best and very over priced…. One item on the breakfast menu stated …. “Eggs on Toast: Eggs of your choice on thick cut farmhouse loaf” Poached eggs fine, but bread was a thin slice from supermarket cut loaf! We did mention our concerns at the time as I believe in giving the staff a chance to turn the experience around. I think the person we spoke to was quite embarrassed and said he’d pass on our concerns. Let’s hope it’s taken note of and changes are made for future guests. Not sure we’ll return in the future!
9. The Windsor Carlton

There is no better way to sample the delights of Blackpool than take a break at the charming Windsor Carlton. This privately owned hotel is set just off the promenade with views across the North Shore and just a 10-minute walk from the town. By day and by night whatever the time of year, the number of attractions Blackpool has to offer is simply overwhelming - your problem will be deciding what to do first.
Such a delightful clean hotel.
Reviewed By jof228We stayed at The Windsor Carlton Hotel for two nights in Blackpool. There were three of us, myself, my husband and our friend and the accommodation was extremely clean, comfortable and I would thoroughly recommend the hotel and the owners Anthony and Gayle, who went out of their way to make our stay very pleasant and enjoyable. There were so many thoughtful touches in the rooms such as shower caps, tissues, cotton wool buds and balls and very good quality hand and shower gels; also a welcoming chocolate mint each. The room was scrupulously clean, with small items individually wrapped and there was a plentiful supply of tea and coffee in the room and more available if required. The breakfast was really delicious, freshly cooked and plentiful and we enjoyed it very much. On street parking is available on the quiet, wide road outside the hotel. When we next visit Blackpool, we will certainly be booking there again. Many thanks for making our stay so pleasurable.

Travelodge is amazing!
Reviewed By travellinglunaticI recently stayed at Workington Travelodge in the Lake District with my wife and 4 children. It is a brand new hotel and the staff, accommodation and food available was of a very high standard. There was plenty if free parking onside. We regularly stay in Travelodge and have never experienced an issue in over 10 years! Travelodge is the best all round!
