Fabulous refurbished hotel, very modern but in a traditional way given its location. We had a garden suite (Millican Dalton) which was an absolute delight, very spacious and quiet, views over fields & hills. The only fault, although minor was there is no fridge in the room and there is a patio area with table & chairs with view to the hills but it hadn’t been cleaned for sometime, lots of moss & quite slippy. We had dinner in the restaurant both nights & the food quality was very good & presented beautifully. Great breakfast menu. All the staff were very attentive, friendly and went out of their way to make the stay enjoyable. The plus point for us is that they only have a couple of rooms for dogs & dogs are not allowed in the bar or restaurant. Don’t get me wrong, I like dogs, but I don’t want to stay in a room where they have been & I certainly don’t want to eat in a restaurant with them when most guests are dressed for dinner & unfortunately have seen dogs jump up at staff when they are trying to serve food.

The Borrowdale Gates is a total gem. It exceeded our expectations. The staff are professional and accommodating. The breakfasts were great and we dined in all 4 nights - a first for us - largely because the cuisine and attention to detail was superb. AND the view from the dining room was breathtaking.

I've never been to the lake district before. This girl is a converted manor house, with much of the elegance from earlier times, combined with a unique combination of comfortable amenities and mid-century decor. And the surrounding area was transcendent. I could see me living there I've I retire

Lovely break in beautiful surroundings
Lovely hotel in stunning setting. Everything was great, staff, bedroom, service and especially good food in restaurant. Parts of hotel currently undergoing redecoration but that didn’t impact on our stay, from the parts already finished looks like it will be even lovelier.

A real gem of a hotel
Been going to the Lakes for over 20 years and we thought we had stayed at some great hotels until we stayed here. After a couple of hard years where customer service had gone down the pan, this experience was incredible. Brilliant food, excellent service and beautifully decorated. Not at tired like many other hotels.

Great
Hotel was lovely. We booked a delux room with a king size bed and garden view. Although we were assured it was a king size bed we thought it was a double. But it was comfortable. And our view was of the car park. Overall a perfect location and staff very polite.
