Waterhead Hotel

The Lake District is a favourite spot for those who enjoy the outdoors, very much appreciated, with activities including walking, climbing, water-skiing, sailing and cycling. Situated alongside Coniston Water, valued throughout, with lawns running down to the lake shore, this wonderful Lake District property presents itself as the perfect getaway from everyday stresses. For those who prefer a more gentle pace, highly regarded, there are lake cruises and a wealth of historic houses to visit. Coniston Water, and above all, with the 'Old Man' towering above at 803 metres, offers a variety of lake activities, as well as excellent walking to suit all abilities. In the evenings you can relax in Waterhead Hotel’s comfortable lounge, valued throughout, with views across the lawns and down to the lake, before sampling local cuisine in Waterhead Hotel’s Mountain View Restaurant.

Hotel details

In its early days, the Waterhead frequently welcomed the illustrious Victorian artist and social critic, John Ruskin, as a guest. Ruskin's home, Brantwood, lies just across the lake and many of his visitors (including Charles Darwin) would stay as guests at the Waterhead. During the Second World War, the hotel became a school for evacuees - Sir Robin Day being amongst its pupils. For conferences, the hotel can host a minimum number of 4 delegates and a maximum of 20. Waterhead is licensed for Civil Marriages/Partnerships. The friendly staff aim to accommodate all special requests and the housekeeping team will be on hand to help ensure you have a comfortable and enjoyable stay.
