About Bridge Hotel

River views and mountain views from the same spot are the first thing to know about Bridge Hotel, a 21-room inn set among the fells at Buttermere. Spread across three floors, it makes a solid base for exploring this corner of the Lake District, with Scale Force and Honister Pass both within reach for a day's walking.

Rooms are en-suite and come with drinks laid on, and the hotel can put together a packed lunch for anyone heading out onto the fells for the day. Downstairs there's a restaurant and bar, breakfast each morning, room service, and a garden with outdoor seating for taking in the views at a slower pace. Kids' meals are available, and laundry service and free WiFi cover the practical side of things.

Beyond the hotel, the surrounding area is built for walking and cycling, with fishing and watersports also nearby, plus a handful of pubs and restaurants within easy reach. Free on-site parking is provided, useful given how remote and scenic this stretch of Cumbria is.
