Win A Stay At Our Hotel Of The Week!

Step into the Lake District's charm with this week's Hotel of the Week prize from Country & Town House. Rothay Manor, a Regency-style boutique hotel dating back to 1835, sits in Ambleside at the northern tip of Lake Windermere. Surrounded by green hills, it offers a peaceful escape with a touch of classic elegance and modern comforts.

The competition invites you to win a magical overnight break for two in a Pavilion Junior Suite. Picture a light-filled space with a refined color palette, a private terrace or balcony, and thoughtful touches that make a stay feel wonderfully special. The Pavilion suites offer a private retreat within Rothay Manor's charming estate, delivering a memorable night away just for two.

Included in the prize is breakfast, served in Rothay Manor's Rowan restaurant or in the privacy of your suite, ensuring a tasty start to a day of lakeside strolls and lazy mornings. Dogs are welcome at Rothay Manor, so furry friends can join in the weekend getaway mood, and the manor's warm hospitality adds that extra sparkle to your break.

Rothay Manor's kitchen is guided by a head chef with Michelin-star experience, crafting seasonal, modern British menus that celebrate local produce. Whether you're admiring a sunlit dining room or stepping outside to explore Ambleside's boutiques, this stay promises a blend of comfort, discovery, and relaxation in a setting that feels timeless.

The Hotel Of The Week feature is part of Country & Town House's curated selection of properties and experiences that celebrate travel, design, and memorable moments. The Rothay Manor experience offers a peaceful retreat with convenient access to Windermere's trails, lakeside walks, and the charming village of Ambleside, making it a perfect choice for a romantic weekend or a special midweek escape.

Note that the competition has a closing date approaching soon on August 6, 2026, so keep an eye on the calendar if you’re imagining yourself waking up to breakfast with a view or stepping into the cottage-like comfort of a suite that feels like a home away from home. It’s all about celebrating restful, stylish getaways in iconic countryside settings, with Rothay Manor standing as a refined invitation to slow down and enjoy the moment.

Rothay Manor is a short stroll from Ambleside's lakeside paths, with local pubs and shops nearby, inviting guests to linger in the region's timeless beauty. After a day of exploring the fells, return to a restful room that blends comfort with heritage, a perfect backdrop for a romantic break.
