So many lovely touches that made for a perfect stay. Very well set up for walkers but with a touch of luxury. Very comfortable and fantastic food at a good price

The room was incredibly comfortable. The views out over Derwent Water and the surrounding fells are stunning. The staff were welcoming, friendly and helpful. Great customer service; they would do anything to help. The lounge and dining rooms were cosy, comfortable, and immaculate. Great location for walking and visiting the town.

A good, clean room with comfortable bed and excellent shower. The included breakfast was atypically good, with cooked to order menu and cold item Reliable WiFi.
Location was good for local pubs, Theatre on the Lake, and Durwent museum.

This is a great location for exploring the Scafell Pike area with beautiful walks. The hotel staff are great and the outside area, sitting room and bar are very comfortable to relax in. It has a great positive dogs policy.
Located in Keswick, 5.8 miles from Derwentwater, The Swinside Inn provides accommodations with free bikes, free private parking, a terrace and a restaurant.
Absolutely stunning landscape. There are lots of beautiful walks from the hotel and a great tea room - the Flock Inn with wonderful views from the back seatin area. It is short walk to Stonethwaite which has a great pub and mining museum in the church. The best thing is the serenity and lack of other tourists.

very well located if you want to stay somewhere quiet but also be in short driving distance from lots of popular hikes and Keswick town.
Some of the best views around here.
I would say don't stay here if you don't have a car, stay in Keswick.
not sure how frequent busses are but would be a pain as the shops are 15mins away driving if you forgot the milk!
again if you like boozing then stay in Keswick itself as plenty pubs / bars etc.
Food is great in Keswick loads of options, good hotel restaurants etc from Rosthwaite to Keswick along main road too. also plenty of places to stop, park, hike, picnic etc as you drive straight by the lake.
Very dog friendly everywhere we went. Cat Bells and High Spy are some of the friendlier climbs / hikes with amazing views and also good for your pooch!

Beautiful walks and stunning views of the fells.
Beautiful walks and stunning views of the fells. There is no need to use the car as there are many walks around, two pubs nearby, and a cafe. There is a regular bus from Keswick that comes through Rosthwaite to Buttermere and back.
The location is excellent for walkers, but it is quite remote, so maybe not ideal for families with small children looking for kid-friendly activities.

I love this part of the world, I never get tired of driving or hiking the valley and the surrounds no matter what the weather. It is a staggeringly beautiful place and it is sometimes hard to believe this is in England.

The location is incredible, perfect for heading out into the surrounding hills and valleys etc. The Derwent water circular walk is a must. The walks are challenging ! (not all) and walking boots etc are a must! There are no shops in the village just one small tearoom and two pubs/hotels, Keswick is a six mile scenic drive.

Lovely location with nice walks nearby. Just don't expect great tv reception or wi-fi signal at the hotel, but the views, scenery, location, welcome from the staff at the hotel all combined more than made up for this. We loved our stay and would love to return again at some time for another visit.
