Situated alongside Coniston Water, with lawns running down to the lake shore, this wonderful Lake District property presents itself as the perfect getaway from everyday stresses.

The Lake District is a favourite spot for those who enjoy the outdoors, with activities including walking, climbing, water-skiing, sailing and cycling. Coniston Water, with the 'Old Man' towering above at 803 metres, offers a variety of lake activities, as well as excellent walking to suit all abilities. For those who prefer a more gentle pace, there are lake cruises and a wealth of historic houses to visit. In the evenings you can relax in the hotel’s comfortable lounge, with views across the lawns and down to the lake, before sampling local cuisine in the hotel’s Mountain View Restaurant. In its early days, the Waterhead frequently welcomed the illustrious Victorian artist and social critic, John Ruskin, as a guest. Ruskin's home, Brantwood, lies just across the lake and many of his visitors (including Charles Darwin) would stay as guests at the Waterhead. During the Second World War, the hotel became a school for evacuees - Sir Robin Day being amongst its pupils. For conferences, the hotel can host a minimum number of 4 delegates and a maximum of 20. Waterhead is licensed for Civil Marriages/Partnerships. The friendly staff aim to accommodate all special requests and the housekeeping team will be on hand to help ensure you have a comfortable and enjoyable stay.
