About Roundthorn Country House
Breakfast and dinner are taken seriously at Roundthorn Country House, with a restaurant that has built a name for imaginative cooking, including vegan dishes that go well beyond the usual token option. There's a bar for a pre-dinner drink, outdoor seating for warmer evenings, and packed lunches available for anyone heading out walking or cycling for the day.
The hotel itself has just ten rooms, each en-suite and kept clean and comfortably modern, with room service and drinks brought to your door if you'd rather not move. The garden gives pleasant views over the surrounding countryside, and the setting on Beacon Edge near Penrith puts the Lake District within easy reach. It also does duty as a wedding venue, complete with a bridal suite and meeting rooms for other gatherings.
Outside, there's plenty to fill the days: golf and fishing nearby, watersports, walking and cycling country all around, and pubs and restaurants within reach for evenings out. Staff are consistently described as friendly and helpful, and free on-site parking makes arriving by car straightforward.

We booked into Roundthorn country house for 1 night bed and breakfast in February 2026. It was lovely and clean with modern but sympatheticly decorated rooms . The staff were welcoming and extremely helpful. We had an evening meal which was delicious. It was definitely value for money. We would highly recommend a stay here. And we intend to return
