Dale Head Hall Lakeside Hotel, hotel in Dockray

On the shores of Lake Thirlmere in the Cumbrian Lake District, this charming 16th century residence offers spectacular lake views, individually styled rooms and free Wi-Fi.

I booked this hotel because of the location,near to Keswick. After parking we walked round the front looking for the entrance. Tha view from the front was amazing but we couldn't open the door so we went round the back and finally made an entry. This is where the ,fun' started .It was like travelling back to the 30s. Very old and not particularly stylish brown furniture. A man ,looking like Jeeves introduced himself. We asked if dinner was available but he apologised and said he was the only person in the hotel. I asked if he had a bar and and he showed me into a very cold dark room where the drinks available were a very poor selection. We went up to the room which was large but feel cosy. The view over the lake was fantastic. We tested the beds and looked at eachother and agreed to leave. We met the member of staff downstairs and I basically stated my case about leaving. The best way to describe it to him was that he had a vintage Rolls Royce without an engine and on that we left.

Set in the peaceful village of Pooley Bridge, 1863 Restaurant with Rooms is less than 500 metres from the shores of beautiful Lake Ullswater.

The room was good if a little compact but that is to be expected in this type of property, the in room facilities were good, the bed was very comfortable and the pillows were exceptional. Breakfast was excellent, a good choice and the food was hot and the presentation exceptional. The staff were pleasant helpful and attentive. I would recommend this property and would stay there again.

    Lovely location for climbing the hills to see over Ullswater and climbing down length of Aira Force waterfalls. Good position to explore the area; only 20 mins by car from Keswick and easy access to and from the South via the Kirkstone Pass Hotel itself provides good menu choice and the food is well cooked and worth the price.

    I liked the Hotel and the area where it was. It was only a few minutes drive to Ullswater but the savings compared to hotels by the lake was a bonus. It was very comfortable and the staff were lovely. Best thing it was super dog friendly!

    There was a very good open area outside, with small and large tables and chairs. Here one could order a hot meal from the bar indoors, which would be delivered to us when ready. there was also space for a giant chess set on the marked grass. Possibly the only problem, though we had told them that we would have to leave early the last morning, we found that none of the outer doors had been unlocked by 8.00a.m.

    Just a wonderful lake district hotel.

    Just a wonderful lake district hotel. It ticked all the boxes. Was realy easy to find but was so quiet. Really close to Aira force, and Ulswater and really close for a walk up Helvellyn. Food was excelent, there was 6 of us for 2 nights so between us we had almost everything off the menu and everyone loved it - even the dog! Comfy bedrooms, with big windows to let in the fresh air. Excellent shower and bath facilities with lovely natural soaps provided.

    A Very pretty but very small village/location with wonderful scenery all around , 10 minute walk from the hotel to the beginning of the Aero Force trail to Ullswater. There was an Art studio/shop close to the hotel but unfortunately this was closed.

    Beautiful location in a lovely country pub hotel. Loved being able to access so many walks, and all the staff were great. It was lovely to have our dog welcomed so much too. We ate in the pub restaurant both evenings, as the food was good and made things very convienient. Food in both evening and breakfast was very good, especially the seasonal stewed fruit. Made a lovely end of year break.

    What a beautiful hotel. Staff were all amazing! Nothing was a problem. We left early this morning to get to work. Because we were missing breakfast this morning, we were given a packed lunch for today. I can not fault our stay. We will most certainly be returning to the Royal Hotel. Breakfast was beautiful. Very relaxing break.

    Incredibly comfortable and great interior design A little off the beaten path so a car is necessary. Good little pub with good meals and pints within walking distance. Walking trails straight out the door Loved the views snd peace after exploring in the much more crowded Lake District villages

    What a gorgeous property! The photographs certainly don’t do it justice. It was the little touches that made it- the underfloor heating on, orange juice and Prosecco left in an ice bucket! Felt like we’d walked into a boutique hotel- slippers, bath robes. Cannot recommend this little gem enough.

    The Hotel accommodated a large group of walking friends for the weekend, all rooms were just right for our trip. The food was basic but good pub food and the breakfast great - set us up for a day's long walk. It was as I expected and would happily recommend for this type of break again.
