This hotel was exceptional in everyway. Quiet,large room,comfortable king sized bed and the sound of the stream through the windows was so tranquil. Staff so friendly and helpful. From the beautiful cooked breakfast to the scones and clotted cream every afternoon it just felt like home. Lots of walks from the beautiful Grasmere village. Jump on the bus if you wish to many places. Good restaurants nearby to walk to and tea rooms at the door. Just so relaxing this place. Lots of parking. Great outdoor and indoor space to relax with complimentary beverages. We will be back one day.

Perfect for a walking holiday and a great pub to come back to. The public car park fills up very quickly so get there early. The roads are narrow for driving and walking too. Nearest Newsagent/Grocers is 15mins walk from centre or 5 minutes drive. Pizza/cafe is temporarily closed.

Ample free parking just a short distance away; parking nearer for half a dozen cars but you have to be lucky to get a space! Very friendly and helpful staff. A lively but small bar (discounts on the beer for CAMRA members!) which is dog friendly and with a good bar food menu. Very good restaurant food - well priced, interesting selection, and very generous sized servings. Within very easy reach of Elterwater and a well made path, or you can be adventurous and explore further afield. This was our second visit; unfortunately my wife isn't as mobile as she used to be, so the stairs to the rooms and ladies toilets are a bit of a challenge.

Very pleasant but there was some building work going on nearby. The roads near there are narrow, so you must expect some hold ups. The pub itself is very busy and popular. It is easy to get to other beauty spots, but parking in some areas can be a little trying. The pub allows dogs in their bedrooms, and although this did put me off a little, I have to admit that they were all well behaved and there was no evidence that a dog had been in our bedroom. Dogs are not allowed in the dining room. It is essential to book the time you want to eat in the dining room.

IMO Langdale is the prettiest Valley in the Lake District, Particularly in Spring time. Has 3 or4 good walks, easy by general Lake District standards , many harder walks depending on your fitness. also a good bus service to Ambleside. Also two pubs in the village and another at Chapel Stile, only a 10 min walk away

I was originally disappointed with the Eltermere Inn, as there was a problem with the bill. after my return, I questioned this and was promptly reinbursed and generously compensated with a complementary meal for two, so I would highly recommend this hotel.

The location is fab, a really quiet place with a good bus link, on the river. If you're looking for a quick walk, it's just upstream of Skelwith Force on the Cumbrian Way. Elterwater has a big pub and a nice cafe. The Hostel was nice and clean and peaceful. The room was a good size with just 6 beds in it. Showering and cleaning facilities were great. I really liked that if you have the evening meal or breakfast you sit together and this is a great chance to meet and chat with other people.
