Staff at reception very friendly and informative. We had a beautiful view of the lake from our lodge and although we didn't take part it looked like there was lots of activities going on (this didn't disturb us) Our lodge was bigger than expected and clean Lots of cutlery and plates to use and a filter coffee machine which was a lovely touch. The property is easy to get to and a good base for exploring the area.

Booked a deluxe room. The window was a velux window so despite being allocated a lake view, you can’t see this as the window is in the roof.. Thick layer of dust on top of the bed. No amenities other than shower gel in bathroom. Breakfast was rather chaotic. Have to wait for server to seat you at your table which took a while. We ordered drinks which never came. Telephone for room service/ reception didn’t work. As others have mentioned, you would assume that it would be documented that the car park is not actually on site, you have to park on double yellows outside the hotel, run in through the tourists to give your details and pay then drive off site to the car park. £20 a day for parking on top of paying for a deluxe room is poor in my opinion especially when said car park is just gravel. Wi-Fi poor. I think the above shouldn’t be overlooked just because of the location / view.

Nice and quiet and the views of the lake are stunning. Lovely breakfast.

The room was lovely. Well proportioned and cosy. The views onto the Lake were stunning. The staff were very friendly and welcoming.

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.
