Ees Wyke Country House

房間挺好的，不錯

The Ees Wyke Country House offers peace and comfort in a spectacular setting overlooking Esthwaite Water. The view, which embraces the Langdale Pikes, Scafell Pike and Coniston Old Man, never failed to impress during the two days we spent there this week. The house itself is airy, comfortably furnished and immaculate. Our room ("Sunshine") was undeniably on the small side, but perfectly adequate and spotlessly clean. (It was serviced very thoroughly - not subject to a mere flick around - after day one.) But after the view it is the food which will remain in my memory. Having experienced it I was astonished to learn that the kitchen is a single-handed operation. A short but imaginative menu, which changes daily, offers dishes produced to a standard which would command considerably higher prices elsewhere. The dining room is elegant, and the well spaced tables are covered with starched white linen. There is no background music. It is common to heap praise on a place where you have enjoyed yourself, and the result is often exaggeration. However, it is simply true true that the breakfast on offer at Ees Wyke is the most lavish and most appetising I have ever experienced. The owner, Richard, who is also Chef, is a likeable, unassuming man with a quiet sense of humour. Ees Wyke is not merely an escape from the lunacies of modern life: it is an escape from the lunacies of a commercialised Lake District. Long may it continue.

Fantastic stay. Stayed the exact same time 5 years prior in 2020. Same owner, same beautiful views, bedroom seems dated but fits location in more than one way and the beautiful award winning breakfast really tops off the experience. I cannot wait to visit for a third time. Extra addition with the new front of house with a great personality making you feel very welcome.

Fabulous stay , fabulous food and fabulous hosts. Bedroom with lake views and so comfy . Richard and Lesley go above and beyond. The whole house is immaculate and the peace is exceptional . Tea and home made scones on arrival ! We have stayed all in the top hotels in the lakes …. None offer service like this nor the quality of food .. breakfast was amazing, excellent quality produce and the porridge with a tipple of whisky!! We will be back soon . Thank you

Ees Wyke was simply stunning. The view from our room overlooking the lake said it all really. What can I say? The setting was beautiful, the hotel was comfortable and the food was delicious. It was the perfect place to stay for a complete recharge of batteries, after a few difficult months. The quiet & the solitude were just what we needed in amongst the majesty of the lakes. Richard and his team went above and beyond to make sure that we were well fed & looked after. And we were even offered a glass of bubbles on my birthday. Being a 5 minute drive from Hawkshead and a hop, skip and a jump from Hill Top meant that we could get some long walks in, as well as visiting one of the famous houses in The Lakes. All in all I would highly recommend Ees Wyke Country House and I look forward to returning at some point in the future.
