"Lake View Country House, Grasmere epitomizes the tranquil beauty of the Lake District, offering guests an unforgettable blend of historic charm and modern luxury. Nestled in a peaceful setting with an acre of dog-friendly gardens, this accommodation boasts the rare privilege of private access to the shore of Grasmere Lake, perfect for a secluded morning stroll or paddle. The house is a short walk from the heart of the village, allowing easy exploration of Wordsworth's Dove Cottage and the famous Grasmere Gingerbread shop. Guests enjoy stylish, often lake-view, rooms and the added benefit of a complimentary infrared sauna, making it an ideal retreat after a day of challenging walks on the surrounding fells like Helm Crag. Furthermore, the on-site Grasmere Brewery and Distillery affiliation often provides guests with a discount on food and drink at the nearby gastro-pub, tying the stay to the very essence of local Cumbrian life. Lakeside View nails the essentials: stunning location, thoughtful convenience (parking), and a pet-friendly policy that is truly welcoming. When you combine that with a genuinely fantastic breakfast, you have the perfect Grasmere retreat. We highly recommend this hotel and look forward to our next visit!"

"Just returned from a fantastic stay at Chestnut Villa. The room was simply beautiful, spacious, in great condition and spotlessly clean. It had great amenities, also. Everything you could need was provided in the room. The area itself was stunning and our view was exceptional. I think any of the rooms in the house would have a fantastic view as the house was surrounded by beautiful peaks and the gorgeous Herdwick sheep - just a perfect vista to wake up to early morning. The village with its little shops and eateries was a 5 minute stroll away. Our host Michael was great. We wouldn't hesitate to stay here again. "
