Stayed at the Rothay Garden Hotel recently so looking for something similar in terms of luxury and preferably with a spa. Any recommendations?

The Langdales, in Langdale? Did it a few years ago, and it was lovely.

We stayed at The Daffodil Hotel, Grasmere earlier this year. Newly converted/refurbished in a great location with a Spa and easy access to the central Lakes.

We stay at some lodges locally and get access to the spa, the wife tells me the treatments are top notch and I can vouch for the leisure facilities. They have a nice restaurant and seperate less formal bistro.

Seen that on the way past to a slightly more humble camp site. In terms of location I think you'll struggle to beat it.

Stayed there back in March, excellent hotel with spa and a great location too. Also, Wainwrights pub just up the road, great food and drink.

Used to pass it en route to my Dad's Climbing Cub hut in Little Langdale, and the difference is quite pronounced. Still, bathing in a Langdale stream with a sluice pond is an experience not to be missed biggrin

^ another vote for Langdale.

Mrs Vvroom's family have timeshare properties there and the past couple of years we have spent a really enjoyable week there in May. Spa is great and there are 2 good local pubs- Wainwrights and the Britannia. Great base for walking and your in the middle of everything.

They have just completed a new section to the hotel- all suites. They look fantastic.

We went to the Langdale for my 30th a couple of years ago.

We had one of the Ultimate Rooms - we had the one with the two baths in the middle of the rooms, when filling the baths the water comes from the ceiling!

The actual bathroom has got an awesome shower in it as well with a "Medusa" shower head - very very good.

We also did the taster menu at Purdeys one night which was bloody superb, along with the matching wine. Really really good.

The other night we ate at Wainwrights which was a lovely pub with decent enough pub grub. (Take a torch, the road betwen the pub & hotel is very very dark)

The Spa was nice enough too - pool was good with a coupl eof free rooms, didn't have any paid for treatments so can't comment on those.
