Excellent stay at The Swan. Staff were friendly, competent and nothing was too much trouble for them. Only one issue- my TV didn’t work properly and I was unable to access many channels. Normally this would not be an issue as I rarely watch it whilst away., but I missed a lot of the Olympics which I would have liked to see. The staff did their best but were unable to solve the problem. This didn’t impact on my stay however, and I look forward to returning as soon as possible. Thanks to everyone x

Excellent accommodation, variable food.
The Swan at Grasmere was very welcoming, well kept and comfortable with friendly accommodating staff. The breakfast was lovely however we did feel the evening meal was their weakest aspect. The restaurant is lovely but one of our meals had over cooked chips and my husband’s meal was supposed to be pie of the week (beef) but was a surprise when he cut into it and got chicken! The staff quickly addressed this and brought a whole new meal. We did feel the cost of food and drinks was expensive but talking with other walkers staying in other establishments this seems to be the case in Grasmere itself. Our room (41) was very comfortable albeit immediately off the second car park. We didn’t notice any noise and whilst the view was not anything to rave over our room was very pleasant, comfortable and warm. Overall a pleasant relaxing stay.

The location is great, just outside the village of Grasmere. The gardens were lovely and we had a family gathering there. Our room was a bit small for the two of us and we had to carry suitcases up the stairs. The service was good and the staff was friendly, however it took us two days to get some room maintenance even after reporting each day. The meals were quite good but the special last night of a stir fry with duck was not. Sadly the duck was over cooked; breakfast were okay although they mixed up the servings. Fortunately we caught the problem before my husband ate something that would have caused a serious reaction. It was very busy so perhaps the staff was overwhelmed.

Had a lovely stay at the Swan at Grasmere. Staff were all really nice and the room was great. The shower was also really good. Couldn't fault it and the weather was amazing. We would definitely recommend The Swan. The Bus stops right outside as well which was really handy. We didn't need to use the car all weekend.
