Overlooking Windermere, England’s longest and most beautiful lake, you will find Merewood Country House Hotel.
Set in its own secluded, twenty-acre estate of beautiful landscaped gardens, woodland and meadow, and with stunning views overlooking Lake Windermere, it’s hard to resist a relaxing Lake District break at Merewood. As soon as you step through the front door of this beautiful country house, you’ll discover an oasis of comfort, warmth and relaxation.
The informal and friendly service is so good you’ll hardly notice it. It’s our job to make you feel at home…which isn’t hard once you sit back and unwind in one of our cosy lounges or drawing rooms and take in the spectacular lake views over a freshly brewed coffee or maybe a glass of chilled wine.
From the mouth-watering food and drink to the stylish and comfy bedrooms, a short break at Merewood will leave you feeling pampered, stress-free….and hopefully wanting more.
As far as Lake District hotels go…Merewood is a real hidden gem.
A little bit of history…
Merewood was built in 1812 for the son of the 1st Earl of Lonsdale with stone quarried in the hotel grounds. You will still find many of the original features around the house today, including the beautifully panelled hall and reception, pretty stained glass windows, magnificent fireplaces and a silk-lined drawing room.
