A great stop over.
Made to feel welcomed by staff by having an actual conversation whilst booking us in. Facilities were as expected great. I would stay again. View was great the weather was not but only added to the scenery.

Daffodil Hotel mini break
Ideal location for exploring Grasmere, although village mostly shut during our stay in January. Hotel very clean and done to a high standard. Staff extremely attentive and food very good. Only thing that let it down was mattress comfort.

Lovely stay, smart, nice staff
Smart clean hotel. Friendly staff. Very nice young lady in restaurant/bar (long dark hair) who was just lovely with everybody she interacted with and clearly had good knowledge re the hotel and offering good service. Another lady greeting at the restaurant was very nice too and accommodating of our request to eat from the lounge menu. Spa area was small and was unmanned both times we were in the corridor area - which was a shame - as we and another couple didn’t have instructions re the therapy pool area (we were waiting for jets to kick in on a timer - but they don’t - there’s a hot tub style button but nothing to highlight it). Bfast and evening meal - very nice thank you. Would recommend the hotel but there are better spas. To be honest the price does reflect that. Lovely position on the water.
