Founded on the site of an abandoned 19th century gunpowder works and featuring carefully preserved reminders of its history, this estate offers a superb range of facilities.
Choose from the 2 restaurants, 3 bars and a traditional Lakeland pub. Use the excellent leisure facilities, which include a heated indoor pool.
The Langdale Hotel offers an unusual blend of luxury with a more relaxed and casual atmosphere than a traditional Lake District hotel. Dotted with massive milestones and set in attractive surroundings, the hotel is an interesting and comfortable place to stay.

After your meal, retire to Hobson's Bar with its comfortable seating beside a gentle fountain water feature.

Outside on the patio, tables at the water's edge offer marvellous views and are an idyllic setting for summer barbeques.

Originally part of a 200 year old Cumbrian farmhouse, it has been carefully restored and decorated retaining many local antiques and curiosities.
