A Lake District luxury hotel has been named the best place to stay in the North West.
The guide said: “Discreet suites, beautiful countryside and Michelin-starred food combine to create a very special stay in the Lakes.”
The judges praised its snug and homely rooms, slick lodges and suites, excellent bar and an impressive pair of restaurants, most notably the Michelin-starred Source.
The guide is split into 10 regions: London, South East, South West, Central, East, North & North East, North West, Northern Ireland, Wales and Scotland.
Claire Irvin, Head of Travel of The Times and The Sunday Times, said: “The judging process for this year’s Best Places To Stay awards has been as rigorous as ever, as our criteria combines with the ever-increasing importance our readers place on value for money in travel to find a shortlist worthy of their visit.
This value is subjective – our readers covet multiple breaks across the year and are lucky to have the time and money to spend on them – however, each trip needs to be individually unique and memorable. And with international destinations easier than ever before to reach, UK hotels have their work cut out to compete on all levels. Luckily for us, they are rising to the challenge as never before.
The price points of each hotel chosen may differ but they all share the same commitment to consistency and excellence our readers – and their hard-earned cash – deserve.”
