The road (4 miles) to Bampton from Shap is extremely narrow with few passing places here and there and has to be driven with great care because you can meet buses, lorries and farm vehicles. The road (2 miles) from Bampton to Haweswater is equally narrow and has to be driven with great care.

Haweswater Hotel is miles from anywhere so a lot of driving needed , as for all the Lakes I presume. Perfect if you want peace and quiet, great views and wonderful walks. Bampton village itself is very small with few facilities.

The area is quiet, accessed by narrow lanes all worth exploring . The hamlet of Bampton sold the cheapest petroleum for miles. Locals were delightful. Be prepared to travel for 30-50 minutes to reach other key locations in The Lakes.

If like me you are not a seasoned walker take the lower walk at the bottom of the reservoir which snakes around a peninsula and gives unbelievable views. Eat dinner at the Hotel during your stay the food and services are top quality. Weather permitting take time to have a drink on the seats at the front/side of the Hotel and just enjoy the peace.

Excellent base location for walkers who want to get straight out on to the fell. Haweswater and the surrounding hills are a perfect jumping off point for those wanting to join high street and other ranges in the lakes.

Lovely drive to a stunning location.
Lovely drive to a stunning location. Takes you to a peaceful relaxing place in a lovely building. Great staff, beautiful decor and gorgeous suites.
Food was excellent and service was perfect. Enjoyed every moment and wish we had stayed longer x
Great view out the front of the hotel (and probably the rooms in front if you’re lucky enough to nab one!). The restaurant was spectacular — the food and service was great. We both loved how the Art Deco theme in the hotel carries throughout everything. We also both love the historic photos and things from the area before the dam was built—very interesting! Lastly, the music was fantastic as well — it set such a romantic atmosphere for the whole building (but that’s speaking as someone who really loves music from the 40s and 50s!).
One of the most amazing places I’ve ever stayed. I loved the art deco design of the hotel. The scenery is breathtaking with great walks nearby. I ate at the brasserie which was fantastic. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. Good breakfast, comfy bed, the Wi-Fi was absolutely fine in my room as I’d read others had issues with this in the past. Hundred percent recommend it, you won’t regret visiting.
The staff were lovely, especially the general manager that nothing was to much trouble. Breakfast was very nice apart from our poached eggs were firm not runny.
The hotel itself was stunning, room was perfect and the view was amazing.
Only small issue we had was the toilet flush was temperamental ( would not complain as our stay was lovely and has gave us happy memories to remember).
I cannot imagine a more idyllic location. This should be a movie set it’s so beautiful. From the staff to the original art deco details and the gorgeous gardens it’s hard to believe this place is real. The food was absolutely amazing: breakfast, lunch, and both dinner restaurants. Beautiful and comfortable common rooms and exquisite scenery. I want to move in to this hotel.
We were impressed by the home from home feel when we entered the hotel.
The Manager was on hand welcoming guests which was nice.
We ate breakfast on both mornings and found everything to be nicely served and tasty,also the staff were very pleasant and nothing was too much trouble for them.
The background music was very relaxing and the views from the hotel were stunning
The overall feel of the hotel was so welcoming and comfortable, the views and scenery was breathtaking, our dog has a tendency to bark at basically everything but the staff spent time making our dog feel less anxious and gave him lots of fuss, it means a lot to us as most will assume he’s aggressive and move on.
Thank you
Epic. A hugely evocative hotel due to carefully curated furnishings (the result of a singular vision?). Very good restaurant. Our room was large, well appointed and had impressive views of the reservoir through all three windows. Excellent staff.
Just a fantastic hotel. Some hotels say they are pet friendly when really they are pet tolerant. This place really is pet friendly and have clearly gone out of their way to think about what works best eg separate dining rooms for owners with pets.
The hotel itself is absolutely fantastic, the views from the balcony or garden terrace are just beautiful especially this time of the year as the greens turn brown and orange.
The food at both restaurants were very good, staff were great
Amazing location, breathtaking views, cosy & warm hotel. We had dinner twice at the hotel and the food was incredible, all topped off with lovely staff and hotel owner! thank you for the stay!
