Bed was super-comfy!
Had to leave very early, but a packed breakfast was provided.
Pool looked lovely, but didn't get chance to use.

Lovely breakfast again, 2nd visit now and I preferred being able to get my
own continental options. That was much better as last time we went this was table service. We were told we could use the spa when we liked whereas last time I had to say a time slot. I really appreciate being able to leave my car for the day aswell it saves having to find more parking although I dont think guests should have to pay £10. Maybe introduce a new system.

This is a small village in picturesque surroundings. There is a very good bus service which makes it easy to avoid taking the car with the problem of parking. Keswick, Ambleside and Windermere all easy to reach by bus.

Grasmere is full of lovely walks, you don't have to wander far to be in a super stunning surrounding. The walk around the lake is a pretty easy one to follow mainly flat and has a direct path so hard to get lost, but theres definitely opportunities to wander further a field, up into the hills, or over to the caves also from here. The lake is also a great place to paddle board or boat around, it's large enough and not too busy.
We absolutely loved Mathilde's Café at the Heaton Cooper Studio, the food was just delicious and such a pretty shop, great little seating spot outside providing blankets for al fresco dining. Sam Read Bookshop was also worth a look, there are a number of really lovely shops aside from all the main tourist hot spots in Grasmere. We also enjoyed a drink at Tweedies bar which had a lovely atmosphere and be a great place in the summer as it had a lovely beer garden setting to sit outside.

I found the food not to our taste , outragesly Expensive,
very un basic, could not understand why you have dispensed with basic meals,
Very little or no help with the introduction to the hotel facilities.
Very over priced for what was on offer.

It was beautifully situated ans very tastefully decorated.
It was beautifully situated ans very tastefully decorated. The only downside is there wasn't a shower in our room and I have mobility issues. Also no full length mirror. The bathrooms are rather small, we burnt ourselves on the radiator a few times using the toilet. Obviously that wouldn't be a problem in Summer. I would stay there again but would want a room with a shower which would also give more room to move around.
The food was really good we ate there each night. Bit confused with breakfast. One day we got two slices of bacon the next day one and the poached eggs we're hit and miss, but there was plenty buffet which was excellent.
All in all a lovely place to stay with lovely staff, places to visit all around and breathtaking views.

Grasmere is a lovely place to stay.
Grasmere is a lovely place to stay. The small village is so beautiful and offers plenty of places for fine dining. It is also very central for visiting other places to visit. We enjoyed the boat trip on Ullswater also Keswick has a good market and plenty of traditional and unusual shops.

We walked up Loughrigg Fell loop from Hotel, wonderful walk ..lots of other options of walks too. Ate at The Grasmere Inn ..sister Hotel ..was very bust..we did book ..lovely cosy feel but wa disappointed with the food .it was average ...burger v dry ..service not best ...althoughvery friendly....New waiter though. Wished we had tried somewhere else ...busy not always the best option!
Great location within Grasmere, village and lovely walks on the doorstep. Greeted by friendly, knowledgeable staff, the hotel had a relaxed informal feeling about it through our stay.
Beautiful rooms, spacious and nicely decorated, bathroom clean and modern with a brilliant shower, bath also a bonus after a day walking.
We loved the option to help yourself to hot drinks and pastries or scones throughout the afternoon.
Breakfast was plentiful although the hot option a little limited.
Great Service and a great location. Great parking in front of hotel. For those who know Grasmere it's a huge benefit especially in the summer. Hotel room was clean and spacious with quality ammenaties and a large comfy bed, I would suggest some black out curtains or blinds to avoid a 5:45am wake up via the natural early morning day light, if you're not an early riser but no problem for me. All the food was delicious and great breakfast to start the day.
Friendly owners and the location just outside of Grasmere village is excellent. We arrived by bus but were able to walk to the property as we didn’t have too much luggage. I enjoyed the free continental breakfast, though it would be nice to add a hard-boiled egg for some protein. Our room was clean and peaceful with a view of the garden behind the house. After check-out I was able to leave my luggage at the property for a few hours.
Huge room as well as a large ensuite bathroom with bath and separate shower. The bathroom alone was bigger than some hotel rooms! Included kitchenette was very useful for breakfast and for simple meal preparation. Owner provided maps and advice on walking and an excellent post walk cafe (Mathilde). Grasmere is a very convenient location for the south Lake District area and more peaceful than Windemere.
The hotel is a lovely old edifice right in the village, with comfortable rooms and a delightful light-filled breakfast area. Convenient to everything Grasmere has to offer. After a long, long day on the Coast to Coast Trail, our stay was a very welcoming respite. The staff were friendly and accommodating, even loading us down with a few free energy bars for the road ahead.
Grasmere is a a town that is central in Lake District and really convenient to get to many places and is a charming little town by itself and the property is situated at a convenient but not too bustling spot. I also liked the effort that was put in to use teas and coffees from Lake District producers and also the Herdy Sheep Teaware, really elevates the experience!
The location is amazing! Grasmere is so beautiful and the hotel is closer to the little village than I thought it was.
The staff are very friendly and helpful.
The food is quite good. The celeriac soup was gorgeous. As was my fillet steak which was cooked to perfection. Breakfast is ok.
I paid extra for an extra large bed and it was huge!!
The spa is lovely.
Such a wonderful hotel! Very warm and inviting. Lovely room, very clean and cosy.
From the outside, the actual building is deceiving because its very 'modern' inside, but with a traditional feel.
Great couple on singing in the bar. Wonderful atmosphere. This is obviously the place to go if you want a lively night out in Grasmere.
Room was lovely. Overlooking Grasmere village. So quaint. Room felt really homely. Breakfast was exceptional and staff were really friendly. Location fab. Right in centre of village. I would highly recommend Heidi's and we look forward to staying there again soon.
Beautiful hotel in a fantastic location. Staff where excellent, attentive and on the ball. Breakfast was lovely, food was great. Lovely bar area and prices were not horrendous. Lovely feel to the hotel and was wonderful being in the centre of Grasmere.
Fantastic location on the lakeside with Grasmere village an easy walk away. Beautiful hotel. Excellent staff. Spa facilities are amazing. Probably the best breakfast I have had in a hotel…quality of food was exceptional. Highly recommend.
The location is perfect, right in the centre of Grasmere. The hotel is nice and cosy and modern. They left a little treat for our dog too. The staff were accommodating and the breakfast in the morning was delish.
We love Grasmere and hotel is in perfect location. This is the first visit to the Swan and won t be the last. Breakfast and evening meal where excellent, bedroom lovely and comfortable and staff very friendly.
Lovely warm hotel. Furnishings were luxurious and comfortable. Nice fabrics and lovely log fire in reception. The location is ideal in Grasmere. Staff are very attentive and help make your stay seem special
The hotel was friendly, clean and communal areas decorated to a high stand. Spa facilities were good ( hydro pool need to be put on by staff as button wasn’t working) Breakfast was delicious.
