Couples' tranquil getaway
I gotta say, the view from our balcony was very nice. Waking up to snow capped mountains, a real sight! Plus, the staff was super helpful and made sure we had everything we needed.
It wasn't exactly cheap, but you know what, it was still acceptable.

Just a good pick for a mini-break over the weekend in Watermillock with all in all brilliant value for money. The service was commendable, especially when the staff quickly replaced the stained bedding we found in our room. If you’re sensitive to noise, consider bringing earplugs.

The views from our spacious room were stunning, and we really enjoyed relaxing in the beautiful garden area. While the lounge had a nice setup, the dining room felt a bit dated and could use a refresh. we had a lovely stay, but the evening vibe could use a bit more warmth. 🌼

Beautiful views but dining disappoints
Had a lovely time chilling in the lake view room, with the sun shining on the balcony, seriously awesome views! The room felt comfy and clean. Ate at the restaurant twice and while dinner was pretty good the breakfast was average, some food felt stale. Definitely need to work on the dining experience though!

The location of Leeming House is stunning. Breathtaking views of Ullswater right from my room made mornings special. The grounds are beautifully maintained, perfect for walks and enjoying nature. The room had a comfortable bed, ideal for a good night's sleep. The dining options, especially breakfast, had a nice variety but could use improvement in quality. I noticed the bar service was painfully slow during peak hours, which dampened the relaxed atmosphere a bit. One evening, the food I ordered through room service was average at best and didn’t quite match the prices I expected. Staff were friendly and attentive, always making sure I had what I needed. They made my stay enjoyable by being welcoming and helpful, but their presence felt limited at rush times, especially during meals. the hotel has charm, but it needs a bit of a refresh in some areas and more staff during busy periods.
