    Charming stay with stunning views

    We had an unforgettable stay, celebrating our anniversary in a cozy room that boasted beautiful views of the surrounding hills. The restaurant was a standout, serving delicious and locally sourced dishes, and the breakfast was particularly superb with options that clearly showcased quality ingredients. The staff were incredibly warm and went out of their way to make our stay special, even arranging a lovely bouquet for our celebration. One aspect that could be improved would be the noise from the nearby road, which was a bit disruptive at times.

    spacious room
    polite staff
    stunning views
    road noise
    limited hooks

    I stayed at the Traveller'S Rest for one night and really loved the charming decor throughout the inn. The lounge areas were comfortable and perfect for relaxing. My room was spacious with stunning views. The bed felt super cozy, making it easy to unwind. Waking up to the peaceful sounds of sheep outside was a unique touch. The staff were incredibly polite and attentive, especially the Italian cook, who added a lovely personal touch. Breakfast was freshly made and delicious, setting a positive tone for the day. I experienced some road noise in the early morning, which was a bit disruptive. I felt there could be a few more hooks for drying wet towels in the room. Nevertheless, these minor inconveniences didn’t overshadow my overall impression of this cozy getaway.

    fresh eggs
    charming room
    cozy lounge
    limited menu
    dirty windows

    The food was a real highlight—fresh-cracked eggs and scrumptious dishes that only add to Grasmere's charm. Plus, our King Room was lovely with character galore! The lounge area was perfect for a quiet cuppa after a day out.

    While we loved the stay, a bit more choice on the menu would’ve spiced things up, and a clean window wouldn’t hurt either—what a view if only the glass was clearer!

    great value

    It was just a solid selection for strolling around in Grasmere with incredible value for money. The walls were a bit thin, but we still had an amazing stay overall. Consider bringing earplugs for a more restful night.

    great base for city strolling and nature adventures

    I loved the delicious food in the restaurant and the easy access to stunning trails nearby, making my weekend walk adventures even more enjoyable. The cozy atmosphere and dog-friendly vibe made it feel like a home away from home, but the room was a bit small for my family's comfort.

    amazing breakfast
    cozy tv lounge
    traffic noise

    Breakfast was amazing with delicious food and unlimited coffee! The garden area was perfect for relaxation, and I enjoyed unwinding in the cozy TV lounge, too. The only downside was a bit of traffic noise in the morning, but it didn't ruin our peaceful nights. 😊

    Charming Getaway with Character!

    Enjoyed our 2-night stay in a cozy Standard Double Room. The lovely local bakery nearby offered delicious breakfast pastries. Though the room was warmer than expected, sipping tea on the windowsill was a delight. Suggest packing a portable fan for comfort during warm nights!
