The Eagle and Child offered a very pleasant stay, in a local pub. The staff were all lovely, helpful and polite, the food was very good, the rooms were clean and comfortable. The location was good for me as I wanted a stop for 2 nights as driving up to Scotland. Price was good. Definitely stay again.

A shame the pub was closed on arrival, which meant we had to go searching for a restaurant in the rain after a long journey from London

Charming old building in a pretty location. The staff was very friendly. Our room was comfortable and clean, and the bathroom was nicely updated. The beer garden next to the river was especially nice.

Nice little hotel with good restaurant
Good location just 5 miles from Windermere. Pretty quiet. Room smallish but quite acceptable. En-suite clean with easy to use shower unit. Dinner service busy but able to cope easily with table of 7 - my wife; daughter, Husband and 3 children - all with different choices. Prices moderate in today's age. Take care Room 4 and 3 (?) overlooked bus stops with easy view into the room. For courtesy sake, I would suggest net curtains/ blinds as a useful addition. For a small family run hotel, staff as you would expect, friendly & helpful. Major defect for us was the 15 tog duvet - much too heavy. We had to pull it off soon after climbing in. Cover was quite heavy enough!

Enjoyable stay
We had dinner at the E&C a couple of years ago so knew that it was cosy. Attending a birthday party at Caris Green GC we remembered that they had rooms here. Six of us (in three rooms!) had a really comfy stay and an amazing and plentiful Cumbrian breakfast. Loads of walkers using the pub with its handy function room providing a spacious dining area to add to the busy pub.

Visiting friends in the area. Hotel staff were friendly and helpful. Bar food and service both excellent. Staff did not enter the room but provided full set of new towels when we asked for them. Room was nicely furnished. WiFi was good, TV was good, shower was excellent. Bed was nice and firm. All in all ... excellent

Location perfect.
Stayed 2 nights .Very clean all round. lovely setting Comfortable room and bed. Poweful shower and hot water. No tea or coffee making facilities in room but asked if we could possibly have a kettle etc which was happily provided and promptly placed outside our room with all we needed .Staff welcoming and friendly. Staveley has its own train station about a 5 minute walk so left the car at The eagle and child and travelled by train to Windermere then by open top bus to bowness for the day. Reasonably priced and regular service took the pain out of finding somewhere to park .on returning both evenings showered changed had a meal in the pub one night which was ok and had fish and chips the 2nd night from local chippy which were Reasonably priced freshly cooked and tasted lovely . Both nights the pub was busy Thurs night quiz night which a lot of local people came to partake in. Some people had to be turned away for food as most tables pre booked inside .we didn't book a table but luckily for us they had reserved a table for us as we were residents had a pleasant time both evenings. There is also a nice beer garden round the back in a grassed area and also one across the road overlooking the river which food can be ordered and eaten in both these places. Will definitely return this is at the top end of my top 10 places to stay

Perfect little pub
Absolutely lovely in every way. The pub is straight out of central casting. It’s exactly as an overseas visitor would envisage an English pub to be. Great food, fun and friendly staff, wonderful atmosphere and perfect clean room, great ensuite and super comfy bed. Lovely indeed

Gorgeous food!
Our stay was really lovely. The room was very clean and comfortable. Staff were welcoming and helpful. We stayed for one night and enjoyed the friendly atmosphere in the pub for the evening and enjoyed the gorgeous food. Breakfast was also delicious.
