A Lake District setting filled with love and laughter – lots of luxury, and zero pretentiousness.

Located in the beautiful Lake District, just four miles from Windermere sits family owned and run Gilpin Hotel & Lake House, an elegant, relaxing haven of luxury which offers the ultimate in wellness experiences. Awarded the coveted 5 Red Star Accreditation by The AA in 2021, which “recognises the top level of excellence in hospitality awarded to a hotel by the organisation”, guests can expect warm smiles, stunning culinary experiences, exquisite décor, real fires and friendly, unpretentious service.

Gilpin is dedicated to nourishment, recuperation and relaxation, and is made up of two hotels on two separate estates, just over a mile away from each other… Gilpin Hotel is home to two restaurants, SOURCE at Gilpin Hotel (previously named HRiSHi), and the pan Asian Gilpin Spice, most rooms have their very own private hot tubs, some with private spas… Hotel-come-country-house, Gilpin Lake House, is a sanctuary set in 100 acres of private grounds, home to the restaurant Knipe Grill, and just six rooms sharing a heated indoor pool, sauna, outdoor hot tubs, and spa treatment rooms overlooking the small private lake.

Gilpin is the ideal location for special celebrations, including birthdays, minimoons, proposals, honeymoons, babymoons and anniversaries; it is also the ultimate destination for rest and recovery, romance, spending time with dear friends and loved ones, or to simply to awaken the senses.

Both properties now have their own spa offerings so that wherever you are staying, whatever room you're staying in, there is a spa trail or special spa experience just for you, whether with the gorgeously natural local Pure Lakes products, or the luxurious ESPA range.
