Great Langdale, Cumbria

Langdale's Most Seductive Escape

Where the wild fells meet whispered luxury.

Tucked into the folds of the dramatic Langdale Valley, Brimstone Hotel is the Lake District's most quietly seductive retreat — a place where modern luxury and raw Cumbrian landscape exist in rare, breathtaking harmony. The hotel's considered design speaks a language of restraint and indulgence in equal measure, with every sightline framed to draw the eye toward those sweeping valley views that shift with the light from dawn gold to bruised violet at dusk. This is the kind of property that makes you want to arrive and immediately do absolutely nothing — which, it turns out, is precisely the point.

At the heart of the Brimstone experience is its exceptional spa, a sanctuary of warmth and stillness that feels genuinely worlds away from the ordinary. Guests staying in the signature Duet Suites — thoughtfully introduced via a virtual tour before arrival — are welcomed with the kind of personalised attention that transforms a hotel stay into something closer to a private residence. Your dedicated Host ensures that from the moment you step through the door, not a single detail goes unconsidered.

Brimstone is, without hesitation, one of the finest couples' escapes in England. Whether you have come to walk the fells and return wind-flushed and hungry, or simply to surrender entirely to the spa's restorative embrace, the hotel delivers on every quiet promise it makes. Book a Duet Suite, clear your diary, and let the Langdale Valley do the rest.

Guest Voices

What They Say

“Absolutely exceptional stay! The spa, hotel, and concierge were all outstanding and genuinely faultless. Suzy was the absolute star of the show at Brimstone — her service was incredible and nothing was ever too much trouble. She even brought me beers and cake while I was watching Manchester United! Service like that makes a stay truly unforgettable. We can’t wait to return.”

Stuart Dobson5/5

“Enjoyed our stay here soooo much for my mums 60th birthday. Our room was perfection and all the thoughtful extras included with the price were lovely and everything felt like such a treat. Also to add, our host Chris was amazing and nothing was too much to ask. Thank you for an amazing stay, hope one day to return!”

Interium Home5/5

“Lost its sparkle. Our third time staying but feels like it’s lost its emphasis on making those little details feel extra special to warrant the extremely high price. By and large the staff were friendly enough (although not on the level you’d expect for the price) but unfortunately we had a couple of interactions that really let it down. It’s a shame as this was the hotel we had our mini moon in so we have found memories, but sadly, as described - it’s not what it was and doesn’t justify the price tag. Rooms great, location beautiful. But overall it let us down.”

Charles Arthur2/5

“Great hotel. Lovely rooms and spa is nice. Free snacks and staffs attention to detail was of very high standard. We got the spa package which was of good value. The Only downside was the food at the linked restaurant The Stove, which was mediocre, and the service speed was glacial”

Speedy bird5/5

“Absolutely amazing! This is was better than 5 star hotels I have stayed at, and I was pleasantly surprised by the quality and level of amenities available. The star was the beautiful location surrounding the hotel and the amazing staff! Every staff member was going out of their way to provide an excellent service and especially Sue who supported us as the host, was phenomenal! She made the stay so amazing, always present with her beautiful smile and aura- thank you so much for making this experience even more enjoyable for us! 100000% recommend staying here if any one is in doubt or looking for some where with quality service and amenities! Thank you to all Brimstone staff! :)”
