Bring the whole family, even the dog, but after walking, biking, swimming and sailing your way through the hotel's long list of activities, make sure they're tucked up in bed so you can unwind with nightly cocktails in the fire-warmed lounge.
Fodor's "A stunning location overlooking Ullswater give the Rampsbeck plenty of country-house hotel style, and it also manages to be more relaxed than some of its competition." Full review
The Guardian "The hotel comprises a Georgian house and modern extension that opens on to 18 acres of grounds, complete with archery field. The lakeside location means kayaking, SUP and sailing are all on offer"

Insight Guides "Tucked away in a beautiful mountainous location, this former 17th-century coaching inn has delightful, modern rooms and a fine restaurant that supports quality local suppliers."
The Telegraph9.0
"Wrapped in woodland with tree-top views to Skiddaw and a 10-minute drive from Keswick, this restaurant-with-rooms offers inventive cooking, contemporary-style rooms and a warm, unstuffy atmosphere." Full review

The Guardian "Don’t be misled by the name; the Cottage is actually a striking Georgian mansion, set high above the spa town of Malvern, surrounded by woodland"
