Rydal Hall

$ | Rydal, LA22 9LX, England

This imposing stone building was established as a private home in the 1600s, and William Wordsworth often used to visit on his evening walks; today the estate comprises a hotel, holiday cottages, a bunk house, and a campsite. Rooms are simply but comfortably furnished in light, neutral colors. Everything is powered by the estate's own hydroelectric plant. There are 30 acres of gardens and woodland plus a tea shop and a program of regular events.

Pros

  • Sustainably minded
  • Wonderful gardens
  • Good budget options

Cons

  • Fairly basic amenities
  • Lots of events mean it can get crowded
  • Dinner can be added to stay but should be booked in advance
