The staff were excellent, nice and very helpful. Breakfast was average and the evening meals were adequate, but the hotel was lovely as you would expect from a country manor house, very quirky too. The room and especially the bathroom are superb, very cleanly kept too,
Would we go back ?
Probably would, It is expensive but for a special occasion it is somewhere we would consider again.

Levens is a pretty little place, narrow roads and lanes require care though it was not busy. I'd recommend the Hare and Hounds as a great place to eat, good food, friendly staff and reasonably priced.

I used Levens as a base and drove out each day to visit other parts of the Lake District. It’s a good location to get out onto the road and drive to other places. There did seem to be a local bus service but I didn’t use this so I’m not sure how frequent the buses are. I’d suggest that you really do need a car if you’re staying here.
The local area also seemed to have good options for things to do - eg Levens Hall.
Levens is a small, pretty village. The Hare and Hounds has parking so it was easy to park next to where I was staying. The pub is a friendly place to spend time.
I had Sunday dinner and breakfasts at the pub - the food is of a high quality and you can tell that great care is taken in preparing and presenting it. It’s good wholesome food.

With very helpful front desk staff, the ambience was relaxing and comfortable. The quality of the rooms (despite paying the upper price of those available) was ok, not that much better than a Premier Inn just smaller. Water pressure in the shower poor to the point that when inverted, the water flow almost stopped. Lots of unmentioned stairs, no lift, uneven car park. The meals were good (breakfast) to very good (a la carte dinner). Drinks reasonable selection but on the upper level of pricing, de rigueur for this sort of location, but within reason. Television remote wasn't working and the two replacements brought up didn't work either. Easy to find and nicely out of the way. if they were aiming for "shabby chic" they aren't far off.
Beautiful hotel, we booked last minute as our camping trip didn't quite go to plan and having to sleep in the car for the night. We booked this hotel the day we were driving home as we was tired and it was half way home. Great access to M6 made the drive home today so much easier. Also love that it was dog friendly, think he was happier than us to not be sleeping in the car again. We can't wait to come back to the villa now.
Fantastic little village hotel serving excellent food. Our room "Prickard" was just what we needed and had all the amenities that we required for our short stay. The cosy little bar with dining area was very quaint and obviously a favourite with the locals. Staff were very welcoming and couldn't do enough to ensure we enjoyed our stay. Food was excellent.
Beautiful Hotel in a quiet location and in easily reach off the main road. Lots of lovely places to visit around the area so a good base. The staff are friendly and helpful. Good food and a lovely bright dining room. Best part was seeing a Fallow Deer walk in front of the hotel entrance. Made our trip.
the Hare and Hounds is in a quiet part of Levens and was an excellent choice for a short stay.
the evening meal and breakfast were well prepared with plenty of choice.
our room was quiet, spacious and spotlessly clean.
the bar was well stocked.
the staff were excellent.
Warm welcome, excellent and plentiful food, both dinner and breakfast. Good choice of local beers. Barn restaurant very smart. Levens is a small village but well located, close to main roads.
Only problem was we didn't have long enough here so are going to have to re visit. Stayed here but wedding at villa Leven's. Rooms/staff/Breakfast first classing. Nothing not to like thanks
Some of the staff were great and helpful, see below for the opposite.
The driveway, the fields around the hotel look lovely but the building itself looks a bit tatty in places.
We were amongst first guests after lockdown and it was quite obvious that the hotel/staff were in process of opening hotel after a long closure.
Location excellent for lakes.
