Stayed here as a couple for three nights and had a fantastic stay The staff were great - Jaison, Ryan, Dave and Rosina all really friendly and nothing was too much trouble Food was excellent, plentiful and very good value for money We stayed in room 23 which overlooked the stream, lovely to listen to the water and birds. Room was comfortable and quiet The hotel has been recently refurbished and everything thing feels clean, fresh and tastefully done Loads of parking Hotel ideally located for hiking in the Borrowdale Valley. We did two hikes from the door - Stonethwaite Fells (5 Wainwright’s) and Borrowdale Fells (3 Wainwright’s) Hotel is mostly a walkers / hikers hotel as it’s one of the coast to coast stops We had packed lunches on two days and these were the best we’ve ever had Overall we love our stay. Would highly recommended and would definitely stay again

Awesome staff awesome room awesome food........ highly recommend and if you go do not hesitate to book your evening meal. Ann and her team are extremely welcoming and nothing is to much trouble. Very tranquil especially sitting in front of the coal fire with a wee dram.

Had a very small single room in one of the back buildings. Perfectly decorated and spotlessly clean. Good shower and bathroom. No room to swing the proverbial puss, but a cosy, comfy room nonetheless. Bar and restaurant extremely busy and evidently a little short-staffed, but we were served with smiles and in good time. Food was really good, perfectly cooked and hot, nicely presented, 4 courses included bread and home made butter, goats cheese and beetroot, salmon and potatoes and veg, delicious cheesecake (also home-made I think). Breakfast food lovely also, fresh and hot, just a bit of a trek from the seating in the dining area to the breakfast buffet items and coffee in the other room and being busy, not much elbow room. Overworked staff remained cheerful and pleasant and efficient throughout, so well done to them!

In the heart of the lakes this absolute gem takes your breath away...!! Jason, Ryan & Rosina are wonderful hosts and nothing, I mean nothing, is too much trouble for them. Dave the chef's food is to die for and surpasses the reasonable price for three course they charge. Breakfast fit for a king sets you up for the day and if you get back early, free tea and coffee with scones all afternoon - I can fault this place...!!

Our second visit this year, both were great experiences, stayed 5 nights this time. Room so comfortable and clean. Food high quality (Chef's David and Paul offer local, tasty food prepared to a high standard). Great team spirit of Jason, Ryan and Rosina (or was it Rosetta or Roisin, or Rysin 🤣🤣🤣) made us feel very welcome and great banter too. Even when a team member down, service didn't slip. Drying room excellent facility (needed both stays - warm and dried kit for ready for morning). Excellent value for money.

After one average and two poor hotel stays on our coast to coast walk this was a gem. Recently refurbed with tasteful touches. The room, whilst smallish was well equipped and a great ensuite. Food was fantastic. After 15 miles of walking just what we needed.

We recently stayed at The Royal Oak for the second time and we wish that we could have stayed for longer, as we were only there for one night. We have no complaints at all and look forward to our next visit. The staff are fantastic and the food is well presented and delicious. We left as two happy guests, thank you.

I really like staying at the Royal Oak Hotel. Rooms are new or newly renovated and most have a lovely river view. I especially loved the bathroom with its rainforest shower. Dinner was excellent as well - they do a three-course dinner for a fair price. The gem of the place was Regina - super helpful and super friendly. The only issue I had was that the water wasn’t hot and the heating wasn’t on when I first checked-in (early), but that wasn’t an issue later in the afternoon or in the morning.

We had a wonderful night here on our Cumbrian Way walk. Everything was perfect - the warm welcome, the lovely room in particular the full length bath after the days walk in inclement weather, the food and the service throughout. Particular mention must go to Rozina, our lovely host, warm, professional and funny besides - a real asset to this excellent hotel.
