About this property
The extensively-refurbished Bridge House Hotel is set in Grasmere, directly across from St Oswalds Church and the graveyard where William Wordsworth rests. The hotel sits in its own mature grounds, with beautiful views overlooking the River Rothay. The hotel has an Art Deco design and is set in an elegant Edwardian house with some period features. All bedrooms feature en-suite bathrooms complimented with luxury Bath House toiletries. Most rooms also offer stunning views of the river Rothay or the scenic fells. Guests are welcomed with cream tea with homemade scones and cakes upon arrival and the pantry offers complimentary tea/coffee also with homemade cookies. Each morning, the hotel offers a hearty breakfast. A range of cold platters and snacks are available to order, and the property can recommend and book local restaurants for an evening meal. You can also relax on site in a cosy lounge with a log fire, while the residents bar offers an extensive wine and drinks menu. Guests can use the leisure facilities at the property's sister hotel, The Inn Grasmere. Facilities include a swimming pool and sauna. Many mountain and lakeshore walking routes are available directly from the hotel.
