Set in 22 acres of heavenly gardens and woodland near Windermere, the Cunliffe family’s tranquil bolthole is the very essence of an urbane and luxurious retreat, done out in slick contemporary style and not a hint of chintz.

The individually designed bedrooms are spacious and stylish, each with a private sitting area, most with their own patio and outdoor hot tub, and some with private spa facilities.

The welcoming atmosphere is notable and the cosy lounge is perfect for relaxation. Eating in any of the three HRiSHi dining rooms is a must, while Gilpin Spice restaurant is located within the grounds and well worth a visit.

The Lake House situated a mile from the main hotel offers an additional six rooms, spa and stunning lake views.
