Am driving from Poole to the Scottish Highlands for 10 days or so in early June. Was planning a stopover on the way up in the Lakes for 1 or 2 nights and wondered if anyone could recommend a quality hotel to stay at?

Thanks

You could also look at Pennington Hotel in Ravenglass in North Lakes. Near to Muncaster Castle.

To be honest in your situation i'd look at staying northern lakes/eden valley close to M6 less pricey and less busy

or try this wink

Stayed at the Lakeside last year. Had a great room on the ground floor with a small garden etc overlooking t'lake. But by crikey....incredibly pricey. Small glass of wine was £8.00 and food in the bistro type room was rank.

I was at The Swan at Newby Bridge today-it's just opened again after a refurbishment because of the floods a few months ago.I must admit I was very impressed-nicely done out and cosy.Food looked good too.
