Overview

Overlooking Windermere, England’s longest and most beautiful lake, you will find Merewood Country House Hotel.

Set in its own secluded, twenty-acre estate of beautifully landscaped gardens, woodland and meadow, with stunning views overlooking Lake Windermere, it’s hard to resist a relaxing Lake District break at Merewood. As soon as guests step through the front door of this beautiful country house, they will discover an oasis of comfort, warmth and relaxation.

As far as Lake District hotels go…Merewood is a real hidden gem.


Food & beverage

At Merewood, you can enjoy the very best local produce the Lake District has to offer from tender Herdwick lamb and spicy Cumberland sausage to freshly caught trout and Morecambe Bay potted shrimps, local asparagus and Cumbrian cheeses and chutneys.

Dining at Merewood is an experience not to be missed. Under the creative and experienced direction of head chef Carl Semple, and made with only the finest local and seasonal ingredients, you’ll discover a menu of imaginative and freshly prepared food. From simple classics to more contemporary combinations… diners are spoilt for choice. The hotel's chefs make everything fresh on the premises, from the rustic bread to the handmade after-dinner petit fours.

Merewood has two beautiful dining rooms. The Grill delivers fantastic food with friendly service and is for guests who are seeking an informal, relaxed style of dining. Whist Arboreal is for diners who desire a gourmet experience. Chef Carl Semple has designed a seven-course taster menu that aims to indulge the taste buds and senses.   

In recognition of the hotel's food Merewood has been awarded two AA Rosettes for Culinary Excellence. The AA Rosette scheme is long established and successfully recognises cooking at different levels nationwide.
