Just got back from an amazing weekend at the Ryebeck, what a fantastic welcoming hotel. Very clean and welcoming. The hotel is ran by Craig and his brother, whom are so welcoming, and have a real nothing is too much trouble attitude. They are so funny, and create a really good welcoming atmosphere. Special shout out to Liam the Barman, who is such a genuine great guy. And adopts the same, nothing is too much trouble attitude Contrary to what Craig constanly stated they really can get the staff I will certainly be back!

Throughly enjoyed our stay as a family with our dog! Staff were super friendly and so helpful and inviting. The location is great with a beautiful view of the lake. We ate in the restaurant for dinner and would definitely recommend and the breakfast was really tasty. Beds really comfortable and clean! Room has everything you need. Will be back for sure!

My wife and I stayed here on a whim after seeing how beautiful the lake country was. It honestly made the trip. Not only was the setting beautiful but the fun and friendly atmosphere made us feel right at home. The brothers running the hotel were full of charm and warm hospitality. Stay here, you’ll have the best time.

Comfortable hotel with stunning grounds, smart and clean room experience, friendly management, good parking. Better branded coffee sachets in the room needed and a coffee machine for breakfast (but this is a personal preference)

Craig and Tommy were excellent welcoming hosts and they couldn’t do enough to make our stay as enjoyable as possible. We loved the quirkiness, laid back feel, and atmosphere of the Ryebeck. The food was very good and we wish to pass on our compliments to the chef. The hotel’s location and its views across the Windermere are wonderful. We will certainly look to stay again.

Hotel location , excellent, staff could not do enough for my family. Breakfast superb and event meal wonderful

The staff were excellent, so friendly and it is an excellent place to bring your dog with you. The breakfasts and evening meals were delicious. The rooms were clean and comfortable. We will definitely return.

Scenic view of the lake. Much appreciated

Staff were friendly, we were upgraded to a lake view room too! Breakfast was delish!

Lovely stay. Really enjoyed and will be back

Had a great stay at The Rybeck, Nice rooms and lounge area, super friendly staff, breakfast great and food in restaurant was fantastic, great views over Windermere, would definitely stay again.

Fabulous hotel - great service in the restaurant,bar and at check in. Food incredible.

Very friendly and helpful staff. Lovely breakfast and evening meal. Beautiful room with lake view. Excellent all round.

Excellent staff, food was amazing however food served on 3 very badly chipped plates, thick cobwebs in bathroom and someone else’s clothes left in the room from the previous night. Lovely hotel and have stayed several times but needs some attention to detail

Single person whilst very hard working, cheerful and helpful was responsible for the running of the hotel on his own. That means 24 hours of the day and night! There was no dining option on arrival or for the second night. Chef arrived for breakfast only.

Paid for superior room which was very tired and poor furnishings, felt anything but superior. very disappointed for the money we paid. also, booked room for three, when arrived, a room for 2 was allocated. Wouldn't return. however bar and restaurant was good

Staff were all very friendly and helpful with any questions we had. Breakfast was delicious and the room was spotless. We will be back!

Booking , parking

We stayed at the Ryebeck Hotel on Saturday, 25th October, at a cost of £428. The location is lovely, and the public areas are quaint and nicely presented. However, the rooms were quite small. In both rooms, the windows were open and one wouldn’t close properly. The bathroom radiators didn’t work, so it was cold. We were given two options for breakfast times and chose 9:45 am, not realising the clocks had gone back. When we arrived earlier, we couldn’t be accommodated, and when we returned at the booked time, nothing had been set up for us. Everything therefore took longer than expected — although the food itself was good. At this price point, guests should have a little more flexibility, especially with breakfast times. The manager needs to be more accommodating — when you’re charging premium rates, the customer experience should reflect that.

We found this hotel and it’s an absolute gem! Nestled above Lake Windermere, it has a lovely atmosphere and comfy rooms. We had both dinner and breakfast there and they were both tasty and to a high standard. Staff were friendly and helpful at all times. We would definitely stay there again
