Best kept secret for accommodation in the Lakes. Superb views, rooms, and breakfast.

A hidden gem. I was welcomed by friendly staff. The mattress was amazing. The view of the lake from my room was beautiful. I will be coming back. Thank you.

I had a wonderful stay at Dale Head Hall. The location is spectacular with access to Thirlmere and surrounding walks.I was warmly welcomed on my arrival and shown to my room. The room was spacious with an on suite with a large bath and shower. The hospitality tray was immaculate and well stocked. My room had views towards the Lake, the gardens and surrounding fells with ample comfortable seating, a sofa and armchairs to take in the stunning setting.Breakfast was delious with a good selection of cereals, pastries and a choice of cooked food which were prepared to order...Dale Head Hall is a short drive from Keswick with easy access to Grasmere, Rydal and Ambleside. Or get the bus which stops about 5 minutes away. A real hidden gem.

The location is perfect; right in front of the lake. The room is clean and the bed is comfortable. Lastly, their buffet breakfast is good.

A friendly, helpful host. The hotel has a fantastic location on the banks of Lake Thirwell and is good for the challenging hikes to the east and less challenging to the west, there's something for everyone.The hotel is full of character and very good value for money.The bed was very comfortable and had a great night's sleep.

We had a lovely 2 night stay. The room was great and the hosts were friendly and helpful. Tasty breakfast too. Very handy for Helvellyn and walking around the reservoir. The view over Thirlmere was gorgeous and we enjoyed the evening sun set sitting overlooking the garden.

Stayed in Thirlmere Suite. Comfortable, beautiful views, luxury bathroom with good quality towels and small but well equipped kitchen. Owners helpful and always available, sorted out disconnected wifi promptly, also happy to take phone numbers to contact us if we failed to return from mountain hiking.

We actually booked another hotel but it ended up being a tiny box without window so we randomly found Dale Head and decided to give it a go. When we arrived, it was empty and took us a bit of time to get everything sorted. But the whole place was breathtaking. We stopped for 1 night on our journey but it became the best memory for us. It brought us the peace we forgot we deadly needed. In early morning, I could hear birds chirping and even saw rabbits digging up holes on the yard. Definitely worth the stay. The owner was very friendly as well.

This was a short stop off for us on our way North. We arrived later than planned due to traffic and they were accommodating. Unfortunately there was no hot water in our cottage and no one to be found the next morning before we had to head off to address the issue.The location was very nice although we sadly didn?t get to enjoy it.

We stayed for two nights and can say it was a lovely quiet break away from noise. You can have your own time there away from stress. The location is absolutely beautiful with lovely views and hikes near by. The service was met with a lovely smile and the breakfast was great. The guy doing breakfast with the glasses was very polite and lovely to have a chat with. The dining room could do with some sort of background music or something as it was abit awkward with other guests, Everybody was whispering I ended up putting the radio on my phone for us and two other guests as they asked me to haha. The furniture was very marked and could do with a refurb. The shower was actually terrible I'm sorry to say :( Please get a chicken coop for the chickens outside for this winter please as the coming days are going to be very cold, I know they are not yours and they just appeared randomly but they could be a good asset for your business if you got a few females. Please don't let them freeze to death. Thanks for a lovely stay.
