Victorian House

We both felt relaxed throughout our stay, and I think the hotel had a lot to do with that. Every staff member we met was friendly and helpful, and seemed to enjoy working there rather than just treating it as a job. The rooms were spacious, very clean and tastefully decorated. Breakfast had a good variety and generous portions. We thoroughly enjoyed staying at Victorian House, would recommend it, and will be back.

The upper floor Stargazer room was beautifully decorated, with a large window looking out over the village and mountains. We also loved having breakfast in the bright, beautiful dining room on the first floor. There are a couple of parking spaces at the back, and we were lucky to get one. The hotel is very central, and we enjoyed walking around Grasmere. We spent four nights in different places while touring the Lake District, and this was easily our favourite. If we return to Grasmere, it’s the only place we’d stay. There’s no elevator, though it didn’t affect us, and the staff kindly carried our luggage up to the room.

The place was clean, and breakfast was really nice. We had a lovely night here with our dog and would happily come back. Everyone was so friendly, especially the woman whose name I’ve forgotten, sorry. She was wonderful and really went out of her way for us.

Parking was limited, though it worked out fine since we could leave the car on the road opposite until 10am. The staff were all incredibly friendly, and breakfast had good quality and choice. The B&B is beautifully kept, with pleasant rooms and atmosphere, in a peaceful, picturesque part of Grasmere that’s well located.
