Acquired by the owners of Cornwall's Watergate Bay Hotel, the former Rampsbeck Hotel has been reinvented as one of the Lakes' most luxurious, family-friendly, activity-focused getaways. A striking new wing has added an infinity pool and contemporary rooms – rooms in the old house feel more traditional. There's a restaurant, bar, well-stocked library and lakefront lawns, and activities including SUP, kayaking and wild swimming.
