its a lovely hotel, fabulous view, comfortable accomodation. the lake walk is pleasant, and the walkway maintained to make it reasonably accessible but not fully pushchair / wheelchair capable. its great that its dog friendly and animals are allowed in and around the place
food is very nice, all made to a very high standard.
it is pricy but its very pleasant and you dont feel short changed. a good location for a special event.

Perfect location and fantastic hotel
We celebrated our Golden Wedding at the Coniston Hotel, along with 12 friends. The staff could not have been more friendly and helpful. The service was excellent and the location was superb with views over the lake from all our rooms. All our friends thought the hotel was a perfect venue for our weekend celebration. The Winston' s Barn private dining room was fabulous.

Coniston Cold Comfort
As soon as you walk through the sliding entrance doors you feel at home. This feeling is then endorsed by the friendly reception staff.
Rooms are very good, Catering is of a high standard but throughout our stay we were consistently impressed by the Staff.
Thanks guys

Excellent Spa, disappointing room.
The SPA trip was excellent, not too busy and staff were very friendly. The main hotel was nice and clean. We were slightly disappointed with the age of the room. The bathroom shower was leaking on the shower head with mould on some of the silicon sealant. The TV in the room was very small compared with other hotels in the same price category.

The grounds were beautiful, with a pretty lake and signposted walking routes.
Unfortunately the restaurant online booking system for the 3 different restaurants showed inaccurate opening and closing times. So we were booked into the bar for dinner, when we preferred to dine in the main View restaurant, which online said it was closed for dinner reservations, but was actually open until 9pm.The link for the online booking reservation was generated by Expedia through an email link that Expedia sent to me confirming my room reservation. I tried to change my reservation to the View restaurant when we checked in but the receptionist said the View restaurant was fully booked.
We managed to go directly to the restaurant and got a table, and during our dinner reservation noticed there were plenty of tables, so it wasn’t fully booked at all.
The opening times enclosed in the information pack in the room were also inaccurate. So I feel the the restaurant booking system and incorrect opening hours needs updating immediately so guests have the correct information. Otherwise the hotel was excellent.
