Amidst the idyllic, peaceful scenery of the Lake District’s Buttermere Fells, the Bridge Hotel is set between Buttermere and Crummock Water. It offers individually styled rooms and a charming traditional bar and restaurant.

The residents’ private lounge is used for morning coffee, cream teas and pre-dinner drinks, whilst also offering free Wi-Fi access.

This was my 40th wedding anniversary. We stayed at the Bridge Hotel on our honeymoon.The hotel has been modernized but the front entrance looks the same. It has a special place in our hearts. Food was great. The bathroom and room renovations are really wonderful. It was well worth the return trip.

Built around 1590 as a miner's cottage known as 'Dove Cottage', The Langstrath Country Inn is a small family-run property offering accommodation in Stonethwaite. Parking is available.

The Langstrath Country Inn is centrally located in the northern lakes area of The Lake District National Park and World Heritage. Attractions such as Honister Slate Mine and the Via Ferrata are just a 10-minutes drive away, while Whinlatter Forest and Keswick's Theatre by the Lake are within a 30-minutes drive from the property.

Amazing location, very friendly staff and super food. With many just having a drink after walking the fells, we felt quite privileged to be staying here

    The location was great, the area is really peaceful and there's so many fantastic mountains and views to see. The 77 loops around to Keswick and that was very convenient for such a remote feeling place. Syke farm and and the Bridge Inn are good alternatives for lunch or a meal too.

    Excellent. Both had eggs Florentine for breakfast. It was a nice touch to get make your own pack lunches free of charge. Good range of drinks in the bar which was busy with external visitors and residents. Dinner choices appeared basic on the menu but actually the homemade aspects were really good - eg the double beef burger made with local beef. Definitely a recommendation. Bathroom was very clean and modern.

    Staff extremely friendly and offered me directions for my planned walking routes the next day. Big building with self catering facilities, plenty of loos and showers. Food (dinner and breakfast) was very nice and in line with other YHA hostels I’ve stayed at. Big spacious lounge with superb views. Good location for hiking.

    We rested here after climbing Scaffell Pike. The hotel had everything we needed to recover from the long hike. The rooms are beautifully decorated and the shower/bath had luxurious toiletries. We had dinner in the restaurant downstairs, the food was excellent and very reasonably priced. Breakfast was included in the room rate. It was a tasty and generous portion. Thank you for the perfect stay!

    Perfect location with friendly staff. Great breakfast made to order and a takeaway snack box included for when you are out and about. Decent dinner menu with a nice pub garden for when the sun is out. Guaranteed parking for guests is also nice in a busy place.
