The food was excellent, as was the service. We were rather dismayed that a dog was permitted in the drinks room and dining room. I think if we hadn't been there for a special occasion we would have complained. But as it was we didn't wish to spoil our evening. I feel though that dogs should not be allowed. The dinner was pricey, but perhaps that's understandable, given the high standard of culinary delights.

Amazing experience complimented by beautiful ingredients of the meal, a dining experience that is Michelin quality. Service was impeccable and so warm and genuine. Great location and setting. Very romantic to spoil someone special. Highly recommended.

What I want to know I why the head chef Dan McGeorge doesn’t have a Michelin star ? maybe he does and he’s keeping it quiet - I ate there last night and honestly the food was magnificent - really quite outstanding - I went for the pigeon starter and grouse main but another time I could easy go for the full vegetarian menu options - I come from Essex which is a bit of a culinary wasteland - but this place is good - if I had one reservation - it would be merely to swap out the LED lights in the chandeliers for something a little softer, but other than that it’s a nice place to be and service was good too. Thank you and see you again !

Highly memorable meal perfect for a special occasion. Lots of surprises with expertly prepared and exquisite dishes served by excellent, professional and friendly staff. An evening with lots of care and attention to detail from beginning to end. Every mouthful was exciting and delicious. We left very satisfied.

Highly recommended. The menu selection is both creative and appetising, the choice of ingredients, including home grown vegetables, shows great attention to detail and the food presentation shows great skill. We loved the whole dining experience in a beautiful dining room and delightful, knowledgeable and enthusiastic staff. One of our party is dairy-intolerant and every effort was made to ensure her full enjoyment of all courses of the meal with substituted ingredients. We enjoy dining out and can thoroughly recommend Rothay Manor as a fabulous venue for outstanding dining and brilliant service.

We had an absolutely fabulous New Years evening. We took my partner's parents for dinner and we all had a great time. There was champagne and canapes, a lovely singer (very Michael Buble!), a magician and fireworks at midnight. We were in smart casual but didn't feel out of place with many in black tie. It was a really special evening. Great hats and tiaras too! The food was delicious. We thoroughly enjoyed all of the courses, but I think the favourite was the shorthorn fillet or the chocolate with passionfruit - the jury is still undecided. The cheese course with 5 different cheeses was great (as we love our cheese!) The service was the best we had in the Lake District after trying some other fine dining. Glasses were always topped up, they were always there with a smile. Dishes were always presented all at the same time. It made for an incredibly relaxing meal. My partners family has had a cottage in the area for 50+ years but they had never been to the Rothay Manor. We all said we would definitely love to come back!
