Hotel room was absolutely disgusting nothing like the photos on website, we complained they offered us a free bottle of wine !!! The view was dirty mould all over balcony wall, windows covered in bird poo, room very dark and dated no cover on bed. We ended up refusing to stay had to travel home that same night leaving my daughter and my two grandchildren who we agreed to meet up they were staying in a different hotel. I was so upset and very angry they could not care basically also the cream tea on arrival they were not sure whether they could accommodate that and it was £15 to park in their car park that was full of potholes

A good quality hotel with very friendly staff and a superb location overlooking Lake Windermere. However, the claim that all rooms have a lake view is far from correct. Catering standards are mediocre and after the first evening we ate elsewhere

Room was lovely and a good size even though we got the smaller one. Lots of tea/coffee, free cookies and water which was nice. Breakfast was really good. You get an option of cooked breakfast or you can grab continental stuff. Breakfast room overlooked Lake Windemere too so the location is perfect.

Stayed here for 2 nights last weekend. The hotel has definitely had a lot of money spent on it since I was last there over 20 years ago. Pleasant greeting upon arrival and a lovely large room at the rear of the hotel, I know that some people will always want the rooms with better views of the lake, but this room was fine for us. Bar open until late for a night cap. Breakfast was OK if not a little chaotic, good quality sausages!

Lovely hotel with excellent view of the lake, staff were most helpful as we decided to change our room as it wasn't suitable for a disabled persons use of the bathroom, the new room still had a view of the lake but was for a disabled person, it was just what was needed and on the ground floor, Trevor the porter was most helpful and a really nice man as were all the staff. We went Dinner, Bed & Breakfast due to the disability of getting around. Breakfast was reasonable but staff insist on tea and toast being served immediately and we like to eat first then and then have it served, the tea remained hot but we don't like cold toast, pancake was on the menu and was ordered but was sent back as it wasn't cooked properly, staff seemed disorganised as plates were not cleared and remained on the table. Much the same happened for evening meal and on the terrace, it didn't seem very busy in the hotel but staff were rushing around but you have to hope they come and serve you and clear the plates. The menu wasn't exciting and if we were able we would have eaten out. Having drawn the matter to the management things improved but to late.

Excellent position overlooking lake.Large hotel with good facilities.Food well prepared with good choice.Friendly staff.Perhaps lacking some kind of live music?Complex arrangement for meal payments for guests on bargain breaks.Overall much enjoyed.

We were initially allocated room 61 which had a view of a rusty wall , and was quite basic. I went to reception to inform them that l was not happy with the room, and was offered another immediately. Which turned out to be a vast improvement on the first room. The staff were very pleasant and helpful and the food was absolutely delicious.

Having been a customer of Classic Britain for several years now we were disappointed that we were asked to settle our account before we were even handed our room key and if we wished an open tab on our card. We were annoyed at this, as it is not very welcoming to new guests or future guests(although we have stayed at the Belsfield before),with no issues but never asked to settle an account up front.

We very much enjoyed our stay and were delighted to be upgraded to a lake view room. There was a lot of noise outside our room on one of the nights but I unmderstand that you can't be sure how your guests will behave.My husband felt that the bar area was sometimes slow to be manned.
