Rothay Manor - Luxury Hotel in the Lake District
Ideal for a short break at any time of the year, Rothay Manor is a traditional Country House hotel set in its own landscaped gardens just a short walk from Ambleside and Windermere Lake. Owned and personally managed by the Nixon family for over 40 years, it is renowned for the warm, comfortable, relaxed atmosphere and sense of ‘being at home’, with efficient, professional yet friendly staff.
With 16 individually designed and decorated ensuite bedrooms in the main building – some with their own balcony, and 3 suites (2 of which are in the grounds with private parking), there is accommodation to suit everyone including families and those with mobility issues. (A suite and a bedroom are adapted in line with National Accessible Scheme: Level 2 Mobility).
The restaurant has an excellent reputation for fine dining and has been listed in the Good Food Guide for 41 years. Our award-winning Cumbrian breakfast is freshly cooked to order and ingredients for our delicious dinners are sourced locally wherever possible.
