With beautiful views of the Northern Fells, Ravenstone Lodge is 5 miles from Keswick, at the foot of Ullock Pike so you can relax in the conservatory or on the terrace and enjoy some of the best Lake District scenery. I recently had the pleasure of staying at Ravenstone in the Lake District, and it was truly a delightful experience. The cozy atmosphere, coupled with the picturesque surroundings, made for a perfect getaway. The hotel's location allowed easy access to the beauty of the Lake District, making it a convenient base for adventures. The friendly staff contributes to the warm atmosphere, greeting guests with smiles and a passion for service. The rooms is clean, cozy and comfortable. The home made butter brings pure joy in every bite😄. Everything made my visit a delightful and memorable experience.

Mulgrave Country Cottage

Located just 700 metres from Sandsend Beach, Mulgrave Country Cottage features accommodation in Whitby with access to a garden, a shared lounge, as well as full-day security. This bed and breakfast provides free private parking and a 24-hour front desk. Featuring family rooms, this property also provides guests with an outdoor fireplace. We really enjoyed our stay. Rooms were clean, comfortable, and large. It was family-friendly (we brought an infant), and the owners/staff were friendly. Breakfast was tasty English fare. We liked the location also: close to Whitby, feels very private and secluded in the woods, but less than a 15-min walk from the closest pub. Would recommend!

Denham Mount

Buckinghamshire

Featuring a garden and views of lake, Denham Mount is a country house situated in a historic building in Buckinghamshire, 5.7 km from Uxbridge. Private parking is available on site at this recently renovated property. Boasting family rooms, this property also provides guests with an outdoor fireplace. This is an excellent hotel in a 200 year old property which I understand opened in October 2023, with 8 bedrooms. It is accessed along a small ,narrow country lane and the caretakers had sent us a message two days before check in with a mobile phone number to call, this automatically opens the gates . The hotel and its setting were a surprise for us as it is in a completely rural setting with lovely gardens. The hotel supplies continental breakfast but has no restaurant yet, I understand that one is planned , together with a liquor license . There is a communal kitchen guests can use to cook supper and use the breakfast room to eat , we brought food and it worked perfectly . The breakfast room also has tables outside in the garden and a BBQ and hot tub nearby . There are 2 cosy lounges with comfortable armchairs looking onto the garden and one has a TV. The caretakers, Chelsea and Daren met us on arrival and took us to our room , they live on the premises and are both very helpful . Our room had a beautiful garden view , a desk and chair ,TV, and a very comfortable bed , the en suite shower is very large and efficient . Wifi throughout the property was fast and all the traditional windows have double glazing so property ,although old, is warm . The gardens are quite large and worth exploring , there are horses and ponies on site . We had a very enjoyable one night stay on our way to the airport , we will stay again.
