'Wonderful cuisine, excellent presentation, great attention to details and anticipation of guests needs'

Ms R, New Hampshire, U.S.A

One of the best Ambleside Restaurants

Ambleside Restaurants Dining Room

Nowhere is the philosophy that  'if it is worth doing it is worth doing properly'  more apparent than in the Manor's Ambleside restaurant. At Rothay Manor, dining is treated as an experience to be savoured to the full. The menu is varied and meals are prepared and served to the highest of standards with flair and imagination. The Hotel is widely acclaimed in all the major guides for its culinary expertise, and has a personally compiled wine list with comprehensive coverage of all the wine regions of the world (Download)

                                                                                                        

Rothay Manor has 3 Stars & 1 Rosette from the AA and has been listed in the Good Food Guide for 41 years, as well as in all the major guides.                                                                                                      

The Dining Room itself is spacious with tables laid in a classical style. The relaxing atmosphere and view of the gardens make it the perfect setting for any meal - whether it be lunch, dinner or a private party. Service is efficient yet unobtrusive, which makes each and every visitor feel truly at ease. This element of personal concern perhaps explains that elusive quality, remarked upon by so many guests, which sets Rothay Manor in the class of a true Country House Hotel.

 

Following the launch of the 'Scores on the Doors' web-based campaign which allows the general public access to information about hygiene inspections

carried out by Environmental Health Officers.

We are delighted to say that the hotel was one of the first businesses in South Lakeland to be awarded a 5 star (excellent) rating.

 

 

 

 

 

BREAKFAST

Our freshly prepared breakfasts include many home-made items including jams, marmalade, fruit salad and our secret recipe muesli.

All hot food is cooked to order with a buffet selection of fruit, cereals and juices for you to help yourself to.

We have been told by many that our breakfast is 'one of the best' and we are delighted to have had this confirmed in the form of the new VisitEngland Breakfast Award.

This new award sponsored by Kellogg's recognises hotels and guest accommodation that offer their guests a high quality and good choice of breakfast plus service and hospitality that exceeds what would be expected at their star rating.
