FAQs when booking at Lakes Hotel & Spa

  • What makes this a better hotel to choose in the Lake District than the others?

    What sets Lakes Hotel & Spa aside, besides its chic modern appointments and affordable luxury, are all the in-house activities on offer that make for a particularly special holiday experience in the Lake District. Its attractions include beautiful views out across Lake Windermere, wake-surfing on its surface, plenty of spa facilities and an on-site restaurant serving the finest local produce. Previously known as Burnside Hotel & Spa, this is a number one choice of hotel when you’re in the Burnside area of Cumbria.

  • What spa experiences are available at the hotel?

    As its name would suggest, Lakes Hotel & Spa offers a wide variety of spa and beauty facilities and treatments to guests. It has hot tubs, a sauna, a steam room and a cold plunge pool, as well as a range of Elemis treatments. You can also workout in the gym area. There’s even a poolside bar for you to lounge at after a long day of being pampered, and you can have a light lunch there too. Imaginative and immersive mood lighting sets the scene very convincingly.

  • Should I definitely eat in at the hotel’s restaurant?

    We can highly recommend the fare at the hotel’s Waterbird Restaurant. It’s the kind of in-house restaurant that attracts foodies from the entire Burnside town. This is thanks to the carefully prepared local produce and the chef’s innovative seasonal menu that delivers some wonderful surprises as it changes. The wine selection is also superb, and the restaurant’s home-made desserts are renowned among the townsfolk.

  • Does the hotel offer anything special for weddings or honeymoons?

    Lakes Hotel & Spa is also renowned for the wedding experiences it offers. Tying the knot in the Lake District is already something special, and to that you can add several hotel services. These include no less than three reception rooms at your disposal, with gardens and a terrace overlooking Lake Windermere, plus a two-night stay in the hotel’s Luxury Penthouse. Here you’ll be served a seasonal wedding breakfast menu.

  • What’s the best way to get to the hotel from the airport?

    Blackpool Airport is just under 60 miles away from the hotel, which will take about an hour and 15min to drive on the M6 motorway. If you don’t have your own car or a hire vehicle, the hotel will provide an airport shuttle for a surcharge. Just advise them that you’ll need one when you make your booking through KAYAK.

  • What sports and other activities doe the hotel offer?

    The hotel takes maximum advantage of its lakeside location, offering private wake-surfing sessions. You’ll be coached if it’s your first time and can hire a wet suit at the hotel too. For something more sedate, you can hire a skippered boat from the hotel and sip cocktails at sunset out on the lake. You can also go on a number of countryside walks organised by the hotel, accompanied by a concierge. Cyclists can hire bicycles from the hotel too.
