4-Star Hotels in Cumbria, United Kingdom

Wow!! What an amazing hotel. We arrived in the middle of a power outage, to be met by polite friendly and professional staff, we were made aware of the situation and offered a seat by the fire with complimentary nibbles, we were kept up to date with the situation throughout until power was restored. Considering the disruption, the staff remained calm and all food was delivered promptly and was delicious. The rooms were very tastefully done, well equipped and spotless, beds were extremely comfy and the rooms were toasty warm on a night that got below freezing. Breakfast was really good and we were well looked after by all of the staff. We have to say it is one of the nicest hotels we have stayed in and would 100% recommend The Melbreak to anyone. Well done everyone concerned

The room was great, and stepping out into the garden took you right to the lake, with a large lawn. The scenery was absolutely stunning! Breakfast was also delicious. The only minor thing was that the elevator was a bit old, but that was also a unique experience. Definitely recommend it to everyone!

It’s extremely good hotel where you can truely feel the people life in Lake District

Fantastic little Inn. Stayed for one night between Lake District activities at honister and buttermere. Around a 30 minute drive from both. Across the road from bassenthwaite lake which was perfect to cool down in after an active day. We stayed in room 25 which was delightful! Perfect for a family of four. Lovely little communal garden with a picnic bench. Easy parking. Staff lovely, and food was great! Will definitely return!

This hotel is very friendly to self-driving people, but it is a bit far to take a taxi. When placing an order, please pay attention to the number of people you choose. The price is different for different numbers of people. Children need to pay an extra bed fee of 25 pounds on the spot. The waiter's attitude is okay, but he is very sensitive to the extra people in the room. If you want more beds and quilts, you need to come to the room to see how many people are staying and whether it is the same as the registration. The hotel is on the mountain. At first, I thought the check-in place was on the first floor, but after checking in, I found out that it was on the third floor. Our room was on the first floor and there was no elevator. After carrying the luggage downstairs, I found that my car was parked next to the first floor. I would not have taken the luggage to check in. The hotel has a small pond, which feels like a small resort. The children had a lot of fun playing with the ducks in the pond. At night, you can see the stars in the sky by the pond, which is suitable for vacation. The hotel facilities are a bit old, and the swimming pool is relatively small. It is only suitable for kindergarten children to play in the water. Because I like the pond and lawn more, I didn't stay in the room much during my stay in the hotel. I was outdoors, so there are only outdoor photos

- That's great.

Very friendly hotel. Clean and tidy. Every staff member greeted and answered questions with a smile. Check-in and check-out were very convenient. The breakfast was very good, more exquisite than other chain hotels. The snacks were delicious. This is the only hotel room that provides mineral water among the 10 hotels I stayed in.

The Macdonald Old England Hotel is well situated, being just a stones throw from the lakeside and the shops in Bowness. The staff are friendly and obliging and the service matches their attitude. The breakfasts are fine, although the staff can sometimes be a bit slow in replenishing the tureens. We did not use the Spa, so we cannot comment on that. Overall, we found the hotel to have all the facilities that we were lookling for and we would be happy to stay there again.

Although it is not the most beautiful season, it has a unique style, the air is fresh and the environment is beautiful, and the fog in the morning is even more fairy, which is very suitable for relaxing vacation. Although we passed by for a small stay for one night, we have added a lot to our journey.
