Langdale Chase Awarded Five Stars: Five Reasons Why

10 April
Author: Langdale Chase

We are delighted to have been awarded 5 stars by the AA. A fantastic accolade for the hotel and testament to our team’s commitment to producing exceptional customer service for our guests.

‘Exactly what the local tourist scene has been so desperately lacking’. – The Times.

Here are five reasons, of many, as to why we are five star:

1. Our location on the waters edge
As well as being in one of the most picturesque landscapes in the country, with uninterrupted views over Windermere towards the Langdale fells, you can simply step out of our door and stroll down the Thomas Mawson gardens right down to the waters edge. For those wanting to get in or on the water, we have two jetties to sail from or dive off.

2. Our warm welcome
Our people truly make Langdale Chase what it is. Whatever the Lakes throws at you you’ll always be met with a soothing smile ushering you in to relax. We try and create a home from home atmosphere, on hand when you need us and happy to let you be if you prefer.

3. Our dining room view
With a view to rival any, our dining room is a place to admire the beauty both outside and in. Watch the sun set over the fells, or yachts glide by on the lake as you enjoy elegant dishes crafted by our team of talented chefs.

4. Our nooks and crannies
As well as our bar, panoramic dining room and lounges soaking up all our location has to offer, we’ve also got a cinema in our cellar for movie night or to hide away from those rainy days. Above the front door you’ll discover our library, stocked with charming books ready to be enjoyed in comfortable armchairs. An evening can glide by as you’re whisked away.

5. Our dog friendly nature
The Lake District is an adventure for all, four legged friends included. We have a number of dog friendly rooms, with beds, bowls, spare towels and special treats so you don’t have to leave anyone behind.
