Top John Ruskin Museum Hotel Reviews

Lakes Hotel and Spa

8/10 Good

"Excellent location and brilliant staff made our two-night stay memorable. While it was quite expensive and the 11am checkout felt early, we had a great time."

Red Lion Inn

8/10 Good

"The Red Lion is perfectly located within the picturesque village of Hawkshead. The pub is a great, friendly place to spend the evening and the fact that they serve food is a bonus if you don't want to go out. All the staff we interacted with were friendly and helpful. I would definitely stay there again."

Low Wood Bay Resort & Spa

8/10 Good

"We had room 310 it where there are some sort of blowers air con also a fire door is left open and the staff use it come come in and out but the hotel is a great place to stop apart from this"

Cuckoo Brow Inn

8/10 Good

"Lovely hotel in a"

The Sun

8/10 Good

"Good place to stay. Easy parking. Good breakfasts"

The Three Shires Inn

10/10 Excellent

"What a gem Loved it Period building lovingly maintained"

The Hive at Poppi Red

10/10 Excellent

"We were greeted by a lovely, friendly guy who gave us the code for our room and warned us about the low ceiling when exiting the bathroom. The room was lovely, cosy and spotlessly clean. I personally loved the wallpaper, and the beds were very comfortable. My partner, however, clearly wasn’t paying attention. 藍 After using the bathroom, he came down the steps and BANG — hit his head. I reminded him we’d literally just been warned about it. You’d think that would be the end of it. It wasn’t. Throughout the evening, he proceeded to hit his head a further FOUR TIMES, bringing the grand total to FIVE. There is even a sign saying “MIND YOUR HEAD.” At this point, I have confirmed my suspicions that my partner is, in fact, a raving idiot. Unless there was a member of staff standing there holding a flashing neon sign saying “MIND YOUR HEAD, YOU ABSOLUTE PLONKER”, I genuinely believe he’d have carried on until he eventually sustained brain damage. 😂 Thankfully, it had absolutely no negative consequences for me as I’m only 5ft tall. In fact, watching it unfold provided some of the entertainment highlights of our stay. 藍 This is absolutely NOT a negative review! Lovely hotel, beautiful decor, cosy historic town, comfy beds and some great pubs serving good food within walking distance. Highly recommend — just mind your head. And if you’re travelling with an idiot like my partner, pack a helmet. 😂❤️ Thank you for a lovely stay! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (one for each bump)"

Ees Wyke Country House

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful property out of the bustle of nearby Ambleside or Hawkshead. Lovingly cared for and staffed. Gorgeous views, delicious breakfast and dinner, and a hot shower. Hikes out the door. 5 minute walk to Beatrix Potter's home at Hill Top. We hope to return."

The Britannia Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Friendly, helpful staff and excellent food."
