We have just returned from a couple of days at the Borrowdale Gates Hotel and recommend it for a relaxing break. The room was fine, the staff extremely helpful, without being intrusive and the food was excellent. We had a very relaxing two days and would not hesitate to return. more

We have just returned from a two night - three day stay at The Borrowdale Gate Hotel. We travelled from different locations, Midlands and South East England - our intention - to celebrate a Birthday - our hotel choice had been made following recommendation. The age range of our group was from 11 months old to 63 years old. I... more

Gorgeous setting under Catbells, couldn't be better & a lovely garden to relax in and take afternoon tea. However, beware of Room 16 which is sited directly above kitchen area. After our first night of little sleep due to staff members partying in the area below us, we complained and were moved to another part of the hotel. There was... more

My parents have been coming to this hotel for thirty years. We spent our honeymoon there in October 2005 - lovely room, lovely staff, homemade chocs, - the premier rooms are better than the standard for sure and the food was fantastic. Above all you just cannot beat the location and the view from the dining room. BUT I went... more

My husband and I choose this hotel after a frantic wedding and honeymoon. Our prerequistes were peace, quiet, good food and fine wine. At this hotel you can be guaranteed of all of this. We read the previous reviews on this hotel after we had booked and were somewhat sceptical of our stay. However, we needn't have been. The location... more

We booked this hotel on the spur of the moment for a two night mid week break. I had mistakenly thought I was booking the Borrowdale Hotel which is just a mile away and at which we had stayed previously! Even though I had not intentionally chosen the Borrowdale Gates I was pleasantly surprised. The views from the dining room... more

We stayed here for a wedding and the location was superb, with great views of the countryside. When we arrived and shown to our room we noticed that the bed hadn't been made and the towels hadn't been changed. We phoned the staff up and they sorted it out while we had a drink at the bar. The room was... more

Just back from our second stay at the Borrowdale Gates in the past year, and enigmatic is the word that immediately springs to mind to describe the whole experience. First stay was in April last year, and we were enough fortunate to stay in a gorgous room(18) on the top floor with wooden beamed ceiling, double aspects, nicely decorated, and... more
