What a find! It was great. Now don't be deceived by its address. It is not in Ambleside. It's a few miles to the west on the narrow, winding B5343, beyond Skelwith Bridge and the old slate mining village of Chapel Stile. This road comes to a dead end in the Langdales a few miles from the hotel. There's an old 19th century Ordnance Survey map on the wall of the breakfast room which identifies 'Robinson place' which I think was this building, previously a farm. Anyway, it has been sympathetically restored to welcome visitors, both car drivers like us and plenty of hikers and cyclists. My room had large windows on two walls, with beautiful views of mountains, grass and sheep.

The hotel has stunning views of the valley The staff were brilliant food excellent

I stayed in the garden room, which opens straight out onto the garden. The space is spacious, spotlessly clean and really cosy. I had a wonderful experience and would happily book it again.

Just about everything here is lovely. Nice garden, comfortable room, helpful staff and the main thing, best valley in the world. Xx

Remote location, quiet, peaceful with fantastic scenery and views

Amazing views and walks around the hotel. Basic room in need of modernisation. Beds were very comfortable. No curtains or blinds on the window! Toilet was broken on arrival but was fixed within the hour and offered a drink on the house which is nice. Staff very helpful and friendly. You can see the property is undergoing some work so understandable.

Another amazing break in Langdale. The New Dungeon Ghyll has had a refurbishment since our last stay. The staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was great, the room was clean and spacious. We've booked another two stays there for this year and next year. Can't wait to go back.

Great location. Comfortable room and staff were friendly and very helpful. Food was very good. Overall a great place to stay. Recommended.

A lively Lakeland hotel with great prospects and a good feel . Fabulous Langdale views, clean bedrooms and helpful staff. The food was perfect and I would recommend the chicken and mushroom pie, really good. The new owners have more to do in making improvements to decor and this is underway but we loved it and will return.

Excellent for walks! Straight out the car park is a steep stepped-path alongside the beck to the tarn a mile above. Hard work but stunning views

Our room was excellent very quiet with lovely comfortable bed, nice bed linen, towels and plenty of tea&coffee etc. Breakfast was delicious. We ate evening meals at the hotel which were homemade and great quality and reasonable price. New owners have taken over hotel just over 2 mths ago and we found them to be very friendly, welcoming and hard working. They're improving the hotel with new decor and have great attention to detail so I'm sure once finished it will be amazing. It's location is great with some fantastic walks and bus on your doorstep. We hope to return next time we are in the Lakes and wouldn't hesitate to recommend the hotel.

Lovely location; great room

Very helpful and friendly staff. Room clean and bed comfy. A bit of a wait for dinner but it was well worth the wait; delicious. You couldn't find a more fabulous landscape as the setting either.

The breakfast was excellent

We enjoyed our visit We were very lucky with the weather on the whole Issues with the bathroom were passed on to the manager Beautiful location with access to lots of great walks and views Definitely need to revisit

Lovely staff, beautiful surroundies good place to access hikes or lovly small towns. Roads are narrow getting there but it is a gorgeous location. Excellent breakfast and pub food. We really enjoyed our stay.

Parking was a bit of an issue at first, but resolved easily. Bed very comfortable. Room good size.

Warm and comfortable, good breakfast and lovely staff.

The room was spotless staff very knowledgeable and very helpful, the evening menu was very nice,lovely warm welcome.

Diane on reception and at breakfast was outstanding. Staff were courteous. I had purchased a voucher in advance for food and drink, however, the hotel did not have the equipment to read the code and the details had to be input manually. All worked out well in the end and the three night stay was great value. Room could have done with some coat hooks especially as the large wardrobe only had four coat hangers. A hook in the bathroom would have been useful and there was only one bedside lamp, otherwise the room was ideal with plenty of space, a lovely bed and a large tv. Good hotel and would recommend to others.
