Please visit our website for more details and photos of our individual rooms. The pictures of the rooms and the views that you will see have been photographed by previous guests who have kindly given us permission to use them, so you will get a good idea of what the rooms look like, especially if you were to click on the photos themselves, which will open up much bigger to take in more than the thumbnail snapshot that you can see on our website.
Built in 1868, Blenheim Lodge has 11 bedrooms, 10 en suite, 1 with private bathroom. Each has tea/coffee-making facilities, remote control colour TV, and hair dryers.
We have single, double, twin and triple/family rooms, decorated in Laura Ashley colours and soft furnishing, amny with antique furniture. Most rooms feature deep luxury pocket-sprung hand-made matresses for a comfortable nights sleep.
The Langdale has an 1825 William IV antique 4-poster bed dressed with hand-made pure silk drapes and huge bay windows with specatcular views of lake Windermere.
The Fairfield has a wonderful Louis XV suite with a comfy 5' bed and bay windows showcasing stunning north lake and mountain views.
The Dalesway is a romantic boudoir filled with antique furniture including a fabulous Louis XV double bed with roccoco details. Bay windows overlook the National Park, creating an 'away from it all' feeling amidst beautiful countryside where wild deer graze.

Guests preferring ground floor accommodation can enjoy their beauty sleep in a stunning solid brass bed with bespoke pocket sprung mattress in The Blue Room. On the same floor is The Poppies, a small cosy room with a romantic white-painted iron bed. Both have lake views and lovely French decorative furniture, and are beautifully decorated in Laura Ashley colours and soft furnishings.
On the same floor is our TV lounge with fireplace, where you can curl up in comfort with a good book from our small library. You can sit in the bay windows overlooking the lake, enjoying a cup of tea or glass of wine. We can even make you hot chocolate if you ask!
Our breakfast menu includes vegetarian options. We use quality local produce, including handmade sausages and handcut bacon.

Croissants are served oven-fresh with equally delectable muffins.
