"A peaceful relaxing stay with beautiful scenery."
When we arrived the owner was there to greet us and show us to our room. He was very friendly and made us feel welcome even though he was busy preparing the evening meal. The room was a good size and was well equipped with little extras like a sewing kit and a shoe cleaning kit. The towels were clean and fresh, although bedding looked a little tired. The scenery is spectacular and the village/hotel was quiet and peaceful. Read less
Likes:
The views from the hotel, the quiet location and the friendly hotel owners and thier pets!
Dislikes:
The grandfather clock in the hall chimed on the hour, every hour which was quite disturbing as I am a light sleeper. A first floor room may have avioded this disturbance but the hotel was full.

Richard where did you learn to cook like that?
Quality and quantity were perfect. Read less
Likes:
We had a wonderful time at Ees Wyke Country House.
We left relaxed and stress free, ready for the real world, because we've just spent 2 nights 3 days in heaven.
Dislikes:
If you're travelling up from the south you definitely need a sat.nav. It can be hard to find. We drove around the top of Windermere through Hawkshead its much easier and only 12 miles longer.

Ees Wyke is an elegant and comfortable Georgian country house set on high ground in Near Sawrey, the home of Beatrix Potter, that nestles in the peaceful Vale of Esthwaite. Most rooms have stunning views across Esthwaite water and the fells beyond including the Langdale Pikes, Coniston Old Man and the fells and woodland of Grizedale Forest.
This is, and we are biased, the best side of Lake Windermere! There are many walks from the house from easy to slightly more challenging - Moss Eccles Tarn, Wray, Caiffe Heights and Latterbarrow to name a few. It is an ideal location from which to walk or tour the Lake District. Ees Wyke is easily found on the B5285 between Hawkshead and the Windermere ferry
Spacious, comfortable, accommodation is provided in eight rooms each equipped to meet the needs of the most demanding modern traveller. Sumptuous Lakeland breakfasts and a daily five course menu offers choice featuring much local produce. The cuisine and accommodation of Ees Wyke are recommended in both the Good Food and Good Hotel Guides. Comment and commendation may also be found in The Which? Hotel Guide and the Automobile Association where awards have been made for dinner and breakfast
