Abbey House Hotel

Set in 14 acres of landscaped grounds next to Furness Abbey, Abbey House Hotel offers luxurious rooms with historic features. Guests can enjoy free WiFi and free on-site parking. Built as a private house in 1914, the hotel has hosted King George V and other members of the royal family. Many of the rooms and public areas retain elements of Edwardian luxury, including high ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows. The historic ruins of Furness Abbey are just a five-minute stroll from our hotel gardens and the golden sands of Roanhead Beach only a five-minute drive away. The charming town of Ulverston, birthplace of Stan Laurel, is just 15 minutes by car, and the beauty of Lake Windermere can be reached within 30 minutes. Guests can start their day with a full English breakfast and later enjoy an award-winning menu at the Rosette-accredited Oscar’s Restaurant, known for its exceptional cuisine, relaxed atmosphere, and attentive service. ** Abbey House Hotel is a dedicated wedding and event venue, so functions with music do take place. We recommend calling the hotel before booking to check whether any events are scheduled for your chosen dates, as there may be loud music until midnight.

Comfortable and relaxing

Pros: The accommodation was first class - really comfortable and clean. The staff were excellent - very friendly with excellent customer service

Cons: We did find the partition wall between our bedroom and our neighbours’ quite thin - we could hear a phone buzzing several times, throughout the night, on the other side of the wall where our bed headboard was against.

Great room, poor breakfast.

Pros: Our room was beautifully clean and comfortable. The staff were all very friendly and efficient.

Cons: The breakfast was very disappointing. There was no way it had been freshly cooked . The bacon was warm and stiff and the scrambled eggs were warm and solidified. The toast was barely toasted and we had to ask 3 times for some butter.

Anne 10/10
United Kingdom 🇬🇧

Pros: We stayed here for Valentines and from the moment we arrived, our stay was so special. The outside and the grounds are stunning! The room was spotless and included everything you could ever need. We had the Valentines 3 course menu in Oscars and at 45.00 per head, the food was beyond delicious and great value (even being handed a glass of bubbly on our way into the reataurant) The staff were friendly and very attentive. Overall, this lovely hotel, exceeded all our expectations and we will definitely visit again.

Cons: Nothing to dislike, everything was perfect.
