Explore activities in the Lake District and at the Swan

The nature walk is really sweet

"We were lucky enough to watch the steam train go past, a little step back in history.

We will definitely return to the Swan."

A prettily situated, riverside coaching inn turned family-friendly hotel

"Hop on the Lakeside and Haverthwaite steam railway, a five-minute-walk away, whose terminus is beside the cruise-boats' pier and Lakes Aquarium. The hotel is just off the A592/A590 junction so it is well connected: Bowness and Ambleside to the north, Kendal to the east and southern Lakes' attractions such as Cartmel village and Holker Hall are all within 20 to 30 minutes."

I have visited the swan hotel many times over the past few years

"The local area offers so much from walking, sightseeing to lazy days sat beside the River Leven which flows out of lake Windermere."

Beautiful location

"The hotel has clearly recently been refurbished and is lovely inside too. Staff were friendly, polite and happy to help. Restaurant/bar staff particularly friendly. Rooms were decent size and well maintained. Location is the key though and the sitting area outside is wonderful when the sun shines."

We enjoyed an excellent break

"The hotel has a number of areas that worked well for our group. We enjoyed lunch in the restaurant, snacks in the bar, drinks in the resident's lounges and a dip in the pool.

The adventure playground and grassed areas were ideal for children young and old! The staff were very attentive and helpful. The decor is modern and bright. The setting on the river is beautiful."
