Fabulous refurbished hotel, very modern but in a traditional way given its location. We had a garden suite (Millican Dalton) which was an absolute delight, very spacious and quiet, views over fields & hills. The only fault, although minor was there is no fridge in the room and there is a patio area with table & chairs with view to the hills but it hadn’t been cleaned for sometime, lots of moss & quite slippy.
We had dinner in the restaurant both nights & the food quality was very good & presented beautifully. Great breakfast menu.
All the staff were very attentive, friendly and went out of their way to make the stay enjoyable.
The plus point for us is that they only have a couple of rooms for dogs & dogs are not allowed in the bar or restaurant.
Don’t get me wrong, I like dogs, but I don’t want to stay in a room where they have been & I certainly don’t want to eat in a restaurant with them when most guests are dressed for dinner & unfortunately have seen dogs jump up at staff when they are trying to serve food.

A wonderful stay at a very special hotel. The room was perfect, the food was lovely and all of the staff couldn't have been more helpful. And, let's not forget the magnificent surroundings. Thank you

The Borrowdale Gates is a total gem. It exceeded our expectations. The staff are professional and accommodating. The breakfasts were great and we dined in all 4 nights - a first for us - largely because the cuisine and attention to detail was superb. AND the view from the dining room was breathtaking.

I've never been to the lake district before. This girl is a converted manor house, with much of the elegance from earlier times, combined with a unique combination of comfortable amenities and mid-century decor. And the surrounding area was transcendent. I could see me living there I've I retire
