“Fantastic experience, staff very friendly and laid-back, every single one makes you feel very welcome! Great facilities everything spotlessly clean a great place to relax and escape from stress and daily routine. Being trusted and treated as friends (feels so good not to have to sign for everything you order) these people definitely know what professionalism means.. Star of the team: Julian=dedication,smile and highest level of service! We are definitely coming back for more!”

, United Kingdom

“A first class weekend getaway in the heart of the Lakes. The Gilpin feels more like a luxury guesthouse rather than a hotel - the service is genuine, warm and personal. The food at the Hrishi restaurant is incredible! By no means cheap, but for that special occasion you get exactly what you pay for - quality. Breakfast was as good as it gets, the bedroom very spacious with homely touches and the garden area a nice tranquil backdrop.”

, United Kingdom

“I liked the fact you weren't asked to sign something every time you had a drink etc were trusted and treat like a friend rather than a guest”

, United Kingdom

“Simply magnificent. Like being in one's own private house with first class staff attendind to every need. Sounds outrageously self-indulgent? That's because it is! Wonderful”

, United Kingdom

“Friendly staff, great Lakeview and so tranquil.Beautiful flowers everywhere.”
