We came here for the 6 course lunch taster menu.nnThe hotel is stunning and has gorgeous grounds.nnThe food was obviously delicious and the chefs were very enthusiastic when coming to the table to describe the dishes.nnOur server seemed a little bit fed up which fair enough everyone has bad days.nnAnd the cocktail i had was amazing.nnWe were given a voucher for the restaurant / hotel as a wedding present last year so it was great that we finally got to use it!
Great location and service. The food was mostly great but there was one or two courses of the vegetarian tasting menu that were average to poor for a restaurant of this high calibre and price point. We left a scarf there on our visit, and although we called not long after we left they were unable to find it, and it was pretty difficult to communicate with them. Overall I do recommend it if you are after a meal for a special occasion. Nice people, you will be well looked after, and a beautiful setting.
Forest side is lovely. We had a dog friendly room which was perfect for us. It needed a bit more closet space but other than that it was great. Dinner was superb as we're the breakfasts. Highly recommend.
Beautiful hotel in a stunning location. Food is delicious and superbly presented. Staff helpful and friendly. Nothing is too much trouble. Dog friendly and great walks in surrounding area .
Forest Side is a well positioned hotel, set in Grasmere it gives you a good central position between Windermere and Derwentwater. It is best suited to adult couples who want a good evening meal - but if you are a family, this is not the hotel for you.nnThe rooms have little storage space, a problem probably made worse by having to retrofit an old building. And whilst breakfast was very nice, the food is very much suited to adults. Children are not big fans of Rye bread and the bar menu only runs until 6pm when all energy then goes into the evening dinner service. If you happen to come back from your walk beyond 6pm you are then forced to fend for yourself, no food offering or room service exists and the kitchen are unable despite being asked to prepare you even a simple plate of pasta. The waiting and reception staff feel inexperienced, which is letting down what could be a decent experience - but to call this luxury or suggest it should have a Michelin star is, in my opinion, a stretch too far.
