Advantages: Quiet, idyllic location, good staff Disadvantages: No telly!
in the Lake District at 200-odd metres. Ok so where's the lake? Well it's in the North Lakes, about 10 miles from Penrith. If you're on the M6, take the turn-off for Shap and it's about 6 miles of winding road later. If you're not on the M6 I can only suggest you're lost. Shap, if it doesn't ring alarm-bells, should. It's quite a godforsaken place where it always rains. If anyone from shap writes to me complaining, then it is because the rain has addled your brain and depression has led to erratic complaining about well known fact. I did a lot of geology around Shap because of its famous granite - it's the very pink one people have for worktops - and ALWAYS spent the time huddled in a corner trying to light a fag in a force 10 gale.

The Hotel Glenridding is set in a beautiful location right next to Lake Ullswater near Penrith Cumbria, when I say right next to, if you walk more than 30 paces from the car park, you will fall in! It is set in an extremely quiet village with a couple of shops and tearooms and little or no nightlife, however, that is not what this holiday is about. The area hasn't been tainted with the tourist brush quite yet. It still retains charm and peace.
The hotel itself is a quaint mix of old and new architecture and has 36 rooms including four posters, lake views, family suites and large corner rooms available for a supplement (aprox £25 per night)
Reception/lounge and bar area.
Walking through the large front door you immediately come to the above area ...
Advantages: Location, views, food, quality of accomodation... no more room left to write!!! Disadvantages: none
of a swimming pool and gym, this is certainly a great place to stay. There are walks available from outside the hotel and a number of 'The Lakes' tourist attractions nearby. We'd certainly recommend the Rhegged Discovery Centre which is also run by Westmorland Ltd which is just a few minutes drive away.
