The Map House Map, Address, Transportation & Nearest Stations and Airport

We got married here 9 years ago and have visited every year since for our anniversary, even had afternoon tea for a big birthday last year. This was our first overnight stay since our wedding and we stayed on the summer retreat deal. The venue is just breathtaking and service we have received on every single visit has been consistently excellent. However, we were absolutely blown away with our recent stay. We mentioned it was our anniversary and that we were married in the estate office - they set us up a private table in the exact spot we stood, looking out over the lake for our dinner - just wow. We were served the most amazing food and received first class service. A special thank you to Manoj the restaurant manager who was so professional, polite and attentive and helped make the evening so special and thank you to the general manager who took time to chat to us in fact every single member of staff, we just didn’t get their names. If you want a special treat in a beautiful place, we can’t recommend Armathwaite Hall enough!

A very quiet and relaxed hotel. The restaurant is excellent and the food delicious. Local food prepared to a very high standard indeed and beautifully presented by talented chefs. The price was included in the DBB and is extremely good value for the quality and excellent preparation of food. Breakfast is delicious and all meals were prepared to order and piping hot. The hotel also do light lunches and serve a very good fish or meal sharing platter. Worth a look in if passing by. The staff are excellent and very attentive and polite. A good hardworking team working well together. Marilyn is a star. One of the best hotel restaurants I have dined in, a comfy room, lovely Lakeland views and quiet and peaceful. So good booked to return Fully recommend

So check in time is 3pm and we arrived 2 hours early..got to front desk only to see that it would not be manned until 3pm due to staff shortages..no problem, it just meant I had to leave our bag in the car (totally my fault for arriving early).. Went for a walk and a few drinks round Keswick and returned to the hotel just after 3pm. We got checked in (room 4) which my wife recognised straight away as being the room we stayed in 13 years ago for her 40th..apparently the same decor.. Off we went for a few more drinks and returned to the hotel for a meal at 1930ish only to be told by the same fella that checked us in about 4 hours earlier that they would only serve residents..once we established that we were in fact residents I asked him what time the bar closes? His reply..”as soon as possible”.. One of the reasons I booked this hotel was because it advertised it's own beer garden so on a lovely June evening, sun still beating down when you might want a couple of drinks, in the 'beer garden' - the front door is locked at 2030 and lights out. After last night's trauma of not even being able to get a drink we went down for breakfast..honestly we are far from picky eaters but it was mostly undercooked.. Sorry for sounding negative so on the plus side...the bed was very comfortable and the hotel is actually in a fantastic location for exploring Keswick. So put it on that or not. Is this

We are a party of six and pre-booked a table for late Sunday afternoon food and drinks. The food was very good, the Sunday Dinner in particular was worthy of mention, generous portions of Roast Beef/ Turkey/ Ham, a very good selection of fresh vegetables and Yorkshire puddings. We found the gravy could have been thicker but it didn't spoil the meal...a very generous plate of food for a good price. The staff, young lady and man were both professional and the beer selection was adequate. Nothing at all to complain about and good value for money in the Lake District. It's well worth a try, especially for Sunday dinner.

After entering with some in trepidation I was pleasantly greeted by a professional friendly gentleman who took my order and booking for dinner that night. I found a lovely corner to pitch up and settle down to enjoy my pint. Some times when you just try you are rewarded. And this is one such time. Feel very comfortable in the friendly, bright, clean and well run establishment. Fully recommend a visit. And if you can stay in the hotel or camp site next door then so much the better 👍🎊👍 Foods good too 😋
