There are regular trains to and from London (approx 2.5 hrs) and Edinburgh and Glasgow (approx 2 hrs).WINDERMERE – 4 miles from Gilpin Hotel – is a local station with trains going directly to and from Manchester Airport (approx 2 hours).Whilst Windermere is closer, you will most likely have to change at Oxenholme to get there so it’s often quicker and easier to take a taxi from Oxenholme.

    Excellent service with delicate, precise and sublime food presented in a well paced way. Staff were friendly and helpful, but respectful. Menu was imaginative and reflected the season and even with ten courses was not overly rich or filling. The wine pairings were delicious and enhanced the flavours without over complicating them. I felt the whole experience was relaxed, unhurried and full of attention to detail. Ludwig and the new female sommelier on her first trial evening were excellent and so helpful and informative. Thank you for making this an occasion to remember.
