Crow How is a family run, fully licensed, Country House, run by Mr & Mrs Doano (John & Eddy) and their family. We have over 20 years experience in hospitality and catering in the Lake District. We take pride in our house and look upon it as a home, rather than a hotel in Ambleside. We have a very relaxed style and are happy to give any advice and/or help where needed.

Be aware that at times we too like to enjoy our gardens, so do not be surprised to see a sign on reception indicating where to find us in the garden. Please have no hesitation in finding us for whatever reason, we will be happy to assist you. You may find that you are escorted by one or perhaps both of our inherited cats, Chilli and Beany, who are extremely friendly and enjoy walking with guests throughout the garden.

Having moved into Crow How Hotel in January 2005 we have undergone a large renovation program over the past 5 years. This has seen a new central heating system installed, providing all the house with warmth in the coldest of weather. The hotel has been completely refurbished throughout with new carpets, decoration and furniture. The bedrooms have been refurbished with our two Premier Rooms (Rooms 1 & 4) being our showcase rooms.

We hope you enjoy Crow How as much as we do.
