The hotel is on a mountain. From Windermere Railway Station, take 555, turn 516 and take the bus to the terminal. The scenery is picturesque and the air is fresh. The little girl at the front desk is enthusiastic and lively, and there is electric heating in the room, which is so happy for Britain, which often has rainy days. The food is great, the steak is delicious, and you can actually drink Guinness.

Lovely friendly pub in fabulous setting, visited with family. Very nice food and great outdoor area, plenty of tables, with covers, when needed. Very helpful and friendly staff, especially Francesca, looked after us very well. Will return

Just back from a couple of nights at the NDG as a family of 7 where we had a great time. Hotel needs a lot of updating & decorating but rooms were very clean & comfy. Meals were good value for money & tasty if a little limited. Drinks were reasonable for hotel prices. Husband was really pleased to find they had GF local beer (Fellwalker pale ale) which he really enjoyed!! They definitely need more parking though! Not enough spaces for number of rooms. Garden on the other hand was really spacious. However, most outstanding part of this hotel for us was our brilliant little Mia!! What a star!! She was the shining light of this hotel doing everything for everyone & always with a smile & humour!! Not sure what her main role is as she seemed to be everywhere, doing everything that was needed by all the guests so a massive thank you to you Mia!!👏👏 Huge respect my new little friend!! We would return just to see Mia again. 😁😁

Went a couple of times on a camping break with my 8 year old son. Good service and prices in keeping with the area. My son enjoyed looking at the posh cars parked on the car park

We had an incredible weekend and wedding at the New Dungeon Ghyll, Fran and Adam worked tirelessly to make sure it went well and they absolutely delivered! They made sure all the guests were happy, attended to and that the ceremony/celebration was memorable to all of us. The location is one of the best in the county for sure. Thanks so much for all your hard work guys, you are a credit to the hotel.

Perfect location. All staff very helpful and went above and beyond. Special shout out to Mia after she lent us her suncream as we'd forgotten ours, very kind. The bed was firm and comfortable however the whole room needs total redecoration, the bathroom needs a complete refit, get rid of the dirty/mouldy grout and tiles. This could be a gorgeous hotel. Hence only 3 stars given. Breakfast lovely, grounds and views stunning. Despite its lack of decor faults, we would certainly stay here again.

Lovely hotel full of character surrounded by beautiful views. Staff very helpful and friendly. Rooms clean maybe could do with a little updating but charming. Food lovely, would suggest adding fresh fruit, croissants and continental option to breakfast menu. Overall excellent
