Why do people love staying in your hotel? People love staying with us for the food, the peaceful location and the genuinely friendly hospitality. We are also very dog friendly!
What is there to do in the area? We are remotely situated in the unspoilt Northern Lake District, surrounded by great walks and stunning views. The towns of Keswick and Cockermouth are just 10 miles away. Nearer to us is the Lakes Distillery, Mirehouse and Gardens, Dodd Wood with its Osprey viewpoint, and Whinlatter Visitors’ Centre.
What kind of breakfast do you offer? A full Cumbrian breakfast is included in our room rate. Alternatively, kipper, smoked haddock and scrambled eggs with smoked salmon are also available. Starters include Cereals, fruit or porridge. All items are served to the table, no buffet service.
Do you offer other meals? And can you recommend good places to eat out locally? We offer Afternoon Tea (bookable in advance) and a three course dinner menu. We are happy to recommend local places to eat out.
Which are your most popular room types, and why? Our Superior Rooms are all spacious and have lovely views. Turret Rooms are the largest and the Garden Room (our only ground floor bedroom) boasts a whirlpool spa bath and balcony with access onto our lovely gardens. All rooms have big bathrooms with separate shower units and double-ended baths. Our standard, or Junior, rooms are smaller and look out onto our gardens, but all have king size beds, two easy chairs and the same lovely bathrooms as our larger rooms. These rooms are great for anyone on a budget!
What facilities do you have for children and can you fit extra beds in your rooms ? High tea is available for the under fives. A cot, highchair and baby listening device are all available if required. Several of our Superior Rooms are large enough to accommodate up to two extra beds for children.
What message would you like to give The Hotel Guru readers? Overwater Hall is far from the ‘madding crowd’ : an ideal escape from your hectic lives, and a safe haven in these strange times. We look forward to your visit.
