Lakeside Hotel & Spa  

On the shores of Lake Windermere in Ulverston, sitting inside the Lake District World Heritage site. Steps from Lakes Aquarium and the Lakeside ferry landing, and a short drive to Fell Foot Park, the Laurel and Hardy Museum and Hill Top. About 15 minutes from the M6 and roughly 90 miles from Manchester Airport.

A historic country-house vibe meets contemporary comfort — oak panelling, cosy lounges, a light-filled conservatory and gardens that lead down to the lake. Around 75–77 individually styled rooms and suites, many with lake or garden views; select rooms feature four-poster beds, sunken baths or private terraces. Family-friendly rooms and accessible options are available.

An exclusive destination spa with massages, facials and body treatments sits alongside a 17m indoor pool, sauna, steam room and fitness centre. Wake up to lake-mist mornings on the terrace, relax by real fires in the lounge, enjoy children's playrooms, free on-site parking and superfast fibre‑optic Wi‑Fi throughout the property.

A conference centre plus four meeting rooms and a business centre support meetings and events. Complimentary newspapers, dry cleaning and free valet parking are offered, with banquet facilities available for celebrations and weddings.

Two on-site restaurants — a traditional lakeview grill and a contemporary brasserie — plus a lakeside conservatory and terrace for pre-booked lunches and a famed afternoon tea. There’s also a bar/lounge, 24-hour room service and a complimentary cooked-to-order breakfast served each morning.
