Review of Hillthwaite House Hotel

Had been given a present of Gentleman's Afternoon Tea at Hillthwaite. The offer also included use of the swimming pool and sauna, so we passed a very lovely afternoon relaxing here.

The decor in the hotel is beautiful. Luxurious, tasteful and calming. The afternoon tea was extremely generous and to be honest we couldn't finish it all. It was a miserable Lakeland day outside, so we sat and relaxed in the lounge with a roaring log burner. There was no pressure on us to move on. The staff were lovely and friendly and offered good service when you could find them but my only criticism was that they seemed to be overstretched, probably could've done with one more person on waiting.
