Camping trips at YHA Hostels are so much easier co. Pared to setting up in a basic field. No need to bring all your own cooking facilities as you have access to their Breakfast and evening cafe facilities, or you can use the self cook kitchen. Views here are great and the lake is just a short walk away. Good bus connection to keswick. Only 1 camping pitch, but there are 3 pods in the same area. It was quite windy on one of our nights and so extra pegs are advisable. The grounds also quite rocky to get pegs in.

This hotel is modern in its facilities and decor, but very homely in its welcome and staff. We travelled with family who come regularly and clearly love to return. Service is an exceptional standard, friendly but not obsequious. Food is really excellent and worth coming for even if you are not staying with a menu that changes a little every night.

I really enjoyed my 2 night stay in this YHA. The staff were all friendly, welcoming and helpful. It’s in a great location, with many walks straight from the doorstep or a local bus ride away. It has a good bar and the food on offer is simple but a good selection and everything you need after a day on the fells. It has a spacious drying room which was very well used due to the amount of rain during the week. The showers are warm, powerful and spacious. I enjoyed my stay and would definitely return. The only improvement I would suggest is my bunk bed was quite creaky when I moved. This wasn’t too much of an issue as I was in a private room but would have been more annoying if I’d been sharing i.e. I wouldn’t have wanted to move as not to wake others up.

Having just returned from a three night stay at Leathes Head, I felt compelled to sing its praises. Upon arrival we were warmly welcomed by Mark and taken to our room. Our bags were even attended to. Not too often these days......... ! Our ”superior room” was comfortable, immaculately clean and had a splendid view towards Derwentwater, Skiddaw and beyond. It was a tad tired but more than acceptable. The public rooms are modern with a traditional twist and very, very welcoming. The lounge would sit very well in any country house. Following our gentle walk in the garden which enjoys a good balance of belonging to nature and being tended to we went inside for dinner. There is no other word to use other than exquisite. Each course of the three set menus was better than the previous one. The entire team in the kitchen deserve a great deal of praise and credit. During Service, Mark's manner whilst looking after his guests also deserves a mention. A mix of being relaxed and being attentive; not an easy balance to achieve. Guests who chose to go elsewhere for their evening meal don't know what they missed. The standard and choice of breakfasts and the professionalism of the morning staff also deserve much praise. A great start to a good day's walking. In our opinion, Leathes Head achieves what it sets out to be. An English Country House Hotel which sets high standards in all aspects of what it has to offer.

Friendly staff/owner. Free breakfast

Fantastic stay here with very welcoming and accommodating hosts. We could not have been made more welcome. Key positives are; Location: Just outside the bustle of Keswick in picture pretty Portinscale (20 min walk to Keswick centre). Portinscale has its own pubs and coffee shops so you might not need to leave. Guest house is well set back from any roads and there’s no road noise Property: Scrupulously clean. Unusually large rooms and bathrooms. Modern fittings and furnishings. There is a fantastic view of Lake Derwent from the front, or alternatively great views of the looming Skiddaw from the back Parking: Ample off road parking for all guests Hosts: Extremely helpful, attentive and accommodating. They gave us lots of help with local information, from taxis to the best spots to swim in the Lake. Breakfasts: All the classic English Breakfast staples, and some rotating specials (eg Kippers) on top of a decent buffet breakfast. Overall, an excellent experience

Enjoyed an overnight stay at crow park.Lovely hotel overlooking Crow park, as the name suggests, in a quiet part of town but an easy walk to the lake and town.We received a warm welcome on arrival Our room was a good size with a lovely view of Derwentwater and the fells. Plenty of choice at breakfast and all the staff were friendly and helpful, would Definitely stay again. There is parking at the back of the hotel which if you book you stay directly with the hotel is free however if you choose to book through a hotel booking service it is £6 per day.
