Overall Ratings & Reviews New Dungeon Ghyll Hotel

Lovely hotel situated deep within the Langdale valley. Fantastic walking options from the front door. The restaurant & bar are a very welcome oasis at the end of a day’s walking. Gorgeous views to be had all around. Ample parking available. Our bathroom could’ve done with a bit of work (extractor fan not working), but otherwise very comfortable and recommended.

Great location, right at the bottom of the Dungeon Ghyll. Staff were really nice, and worked hard to make everyone happy. Whole place looking tired and dated now (or oddly modernised), in need of sympathetic renovation back to a classic Lakeland hotel style.

Awesome location, and it’s one of two hotels in the valley, so there’s not much competition. Room was ok, modern big bathroom but as it was top floor, care needs to be taken to avoid constantly bumping your head on the sloping ceiling. FOH Staff were great and very friendly. When Katy was there, everything seemed to work fine. When she wasn’t, things were different. There was a new staff member who was single handedly taking evening meal orders, manning the bar, reception, waiting on tables, etc, all with a very commendable calm and apologetic demeanor, but 35 mins for our standard Sunday roasts to appear seemed a bit long. But we weren’t in a rush, so no problem. There was a different staff member on duty at breakfast the next day and 20 mins for breakfast to come also seemed a long time to wait, especially as we then had other things we’d sooner have been doing. Apparently Katy was poorly, but it would be worthwhile having a contingency plan in place if possible. Gardens are lovely, with some all-weather furniture. Super- warm drying room, which is very much appreciated, esp in this location. Best thing about this place is the location, with paths up to the Langdale Pikes right out the back of the hotel.

Beautiful location, very friendly staff, good breakfast, comfy bed.

Very friendly and helpful staff

Perfect location in a stunning part of the Lake District. Perfect base for numerous hikes in the area. Room very comfortable and clean. Food very good, but service was a little erratic. Staff very helpful and welcoming.

Great location

Check in was quick and easy. Dinner was good. Breakfast was excellent, freshly cooked. Staff was very friendly. We were stayed just for one night. Was really bonus that we were allowed to.leave our car in hotel car park until before 2 pm after we checked out, so we can hikes to Stickle Tarn. Great location definitely recomended.

Fabulous location. Rooms quite dated. Lovely food and friendly

Great as usual! We’ve been here several times but met a member of staff we had never met before. A lovely lady. So friendly and welcoming. Nothing was too much trouble. Food was great. We love it here.

Brilliant, cosy inn with restaurant, and great rooms and Teapigs in the rooms… beats a cheap coffee sachet. The staff were really friendly, and my daughter and I loved our stay for two days climbing in the Lakes. The breakfasts are superb too.

We really enjoyed our 2 view room and the log fires. We stayed in January and enjoyed the area being quite than later in the year.

Lovely warm and friendly hotel. Perfectly placed for walking in the central fells. We will return.

Fantastic couple of nights, lovely double aspect room, the whole place lovely and warm with log fires, very friendly helpful staff, and great food.
