We were in the studio so in addition to the comfortable bedroom there was a bright living room/diner and kitchen area to enjoy too plus a good sized bathroom. Private parking immediately outside too. The kitchen could have been better stocked and we were asked to contact staff if we wanted to use the cooker. There wasn’t a microwave but everything else provided, all of a high quality. We enjoyed reading the books left for us and the jigsaw! The breakfast in the restaurant was superb as was the evening meal choice. We felt very spoilt. The location is excellent with easy access to the main road but also the lovely lanes around the Lyth Valley and beyond. Sizergh Castle with its farm shop and Levens Hall very close by.

The property was chosen because of the great reviews and it was just half an hour from a wedding we were going to. There is a big free car park and it is just a few minutes drive from the A590. We had an easy check-in with Steve showing us to our rooms. The staff could not have been more helpful, friendly and so warm and welcoming. They were brilliant! The rooms were fabulous with attention to detail and lovely products in the bathrooms which were super-clean and luxurious. The deluxe studio is very elegant and lots of space and huge bathroom. We had an exceptional dinner (do book, it’s very popular). Breakfast was also cooked to order and superb, with nothing too much trouble and lots of choice. Honestly, we came away feeling very spoilt and all of us very happy with our stay.

There was nothing we did not like about this property.

Overall, excellent, and will definitely be back, we both found our accommodations to be warm, comfortable, and clean, proving that the owners and staff have exacting standards... Great gate-way location for exploration of Cumbria and the Lake District... The food in the bar is excellent, with plenty to choose from, with daily specials on, a good wine list and desert specials... It's also obvious that the providence of the produce is both local and of a very high standard, and was much enjoyed...

Very little, I would be nit-picking, and the items that come to mind will possibly be rectified by the next visitors' stay... One of the door knobs was looseon the bedroom door. The pillows a little too dense for us both (but that's subjective) and as our stay was 4 nights, a few more options for breakfast would be good - (though we stayed off season, this may well be different 'in-season') ...

Absolutely perfect for a weekend in the south of the Lakes. The quality of the breakfast was possibly the best we've had in any hotel. Lovely ingredients and beautifully cooked. Piping hot which is so unusual and lots of choice. The coffee is really good too. Our room was delightful, beautifully decorated, comfortable bed, lovely bathroom, with quality complimentary toiletries. The staff are super friendly, the wine & beers inn the pub are great. We ate in the restaurant one evening which was also lovely quality - our whole stay was faultless and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend the Hare & Hounds. We will definitely return. Thank you!

Excellent stay at the fabulous Hare and Hounds Levens. We stayed in the 'Barn Annexe' a self contained apartment, and doggy could stay too ! The Annexe is very comfortable and cosy, extremely well decorated and furnished and well equipped kitchen. Breakfast was in the Pub both mornings we were there, loads of choice of cereals, yogurts and fruit as well as a cooked menu to choose from. We also ate in the Pub one of the evenings, again an excellent menu. All in all it was Perfect. Location, accommodation and the Staff are so helpful and friendly.

Staff welcoming! I had the Bennett room, it was lovely, the bath was huge, so I enjoyed a very relaxing bubble bath, room was immaculate and had loads of little cute extras, very quaint but modern and well thought out, its in a little village with walks if that's what your looking for, we were there just as a stop over and relax. We had evening meal and breakfast, was top quality food and service, relaxed but classy.

Liked everything, bit more expensive than I would usually pay but worth it!

Our double room was the perfect size for our 2 nights stay. It had a fridge, tea and coffee facilities (including fresh milk), a comfortable good sized bed, plenty of wardrobe space, a nice powerful shower in a decent sized bathroom. There was also extra storage on the wide window cill and bedside tables. Food downstairs was amazing, and reasonably priced, so would definitely recommend trying that out for your evening meal if you are staying - just be sure to pre-book.

We had the self contained apartment which was superb for our needs. Our bed was incredibly comfortable. We could also park our car right outside our door which was very convenient as it was raining hard in the morning! All the staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Breakfast was freshly cooked.

We could have done with a shelf or two in the bathroom for our wash items and a handle in the bath to use the shower as we both have new knees!

Amazing food, atmosphere, friendliness and service. The room was wonderful with all the little touches such as the brownies and the fresh coffee and cafetiere. Incredible shower, comfy beds and lovely location.

Everything was great, the only comment would be perhaps the duvets were very warm. If I stayed again I would not come in summer time, especially as the window opened on to the beer garden so it would be difficult to cool down.

Very friendly staff and very clean spacious room The Bennet both a large bath and shower. The breakfast was excellent though cut down on the order on day two due to quantity. We also had two evening meals there and were not disappointed. One suggestion maybe offer the evening meal with a small discount otherwise very good all round thanks for both of us.
