"Room was great with amazing views. Friendly and lovely staff.. Great location. Also, high compliments for the food we had there. We thought the main bedding could be better with a bit more blackout curtain/blinds as the ambient lights outside were on for a longer period at night - these are some feedback for the sake of it. Will be going back for sure. "

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Thirlmere?
The best area to stay in Thirlmere is along the eastern shore of the lake, particularly in and around the village of Legburthwaite.

This area provides direct access to the lake and its surrounding fells. It's characterized by quiet country lanes, traditional Lakeland cottages, and stunning views of the water and mountains. The A591 road runs nearby, offering convenient connections while maintaining a peaceful, rural setting.

For couples seeking a tranquil retreat, Legburthwaite is an ideal base. You'll find charming guesthouses and small hotels that offer a calm atmosphere. The area is superb for enjoying scenic walks directly from your accommodation, with trails leading into the surrounding hills and along the Thirlmere shoreline.

Families will also appreciate the ease of access to outdoor activities. Many accommodations offer space for children to play, and the nearby trails are suitable for various ages.
When is the best time to go to Thirlmere?
The best time to visit Thirlmere is during late spring and early autumn, specifically from May to June and September to October, when the weather is most pleasant for outdoor activities.

During these months, you'll find the temperatures are mild, typically ranging from 12°C to 18°C (54°F to 64°F), making it ideal for walking, hiking, and exploring the fells around the lake. The rainfall is generally lower than in the peak summer or winter months, and the days are long enough to enjoy the natural beauty without the crowds of mid-summer. This period is particularly good for couples looking for a tranquil escape with excellent conditions for enjoying the scenic trails and views.

For travelers who enjoy cooler weather and fewer visitors, the shoulder seasons offer a peaceful experience. You'll have better opportunities for photography with clearer skies and the landscape transitioning with seasonal colors.
