Cragwood Country House Hotel - A lakeside Edwardian mansion with landscaped gardens, 2 AA Rosette dining, and a private jetty on Windermere
This 4-star Edwardian mansion sits on a private headland overlooking Windermere, set within 8 hectares of landscaped gardens and woodland. Cragwood Country House Hotel offers 23 rooms blending classic country-house styling with modern amenities, some featuring lake views or four-poster beds. The two AA Rosette-awarded restaurant serves regional dishes like Cumberland sausage and locally caught trout, with a five-course gourmet dinner option. Guests can relax in the wood-panelled drawing room with leather sofas, enjoy afternoon tea on the terrace, or stroll to the private jetty for lake views. The property is located 3 km from Windermere Steamboat Museum and near attractions like the Lakes Aquarium at Newby Bridge. A continental breakfast is available each morning at Cragwood Country House Hotel.
Pros

The two AA Rosette restaurant showcases locally sourced ingredients in seasonal menus.
The property includes 8 hectares of well-maintained gardens with terraces and woodland paths.
Multiple lounging areas feature lake views, log fires, and classic country-house furnishings.
Dog-friendly amenities include treats, bowls, and access to woodland walks.
Cons
Some rooms overlook gardens rather than the lake.
The closest major attractions require a short drive (3 km).
“This Windermere house embraces its Arts & Crafts heritage, from the gardens to the log fire in the bar. The lakeside setting is a real draw, and the delicious food seals the deal. It would be hard not to feel at home here.”
