Located in the lake district between Penrith and Kendal just 3 minutes from the M6 (J39) set in breathtaking scenery. Explore the Lake district, Kendal, Penrith, Yorkshire Dales, North Pennines, Lake district and the Scottish Borders. Over the last 35 years, under the direction of the Metcalfe family, a continuous programme of expansion and refurbishment has transformed Shap Wells into a unique hotel. First time guests find it hard to believe that this beautiful, large, three star hotel in the middle of nowhere is still a family run establishment - but on your arrival it is impossible not to notice the unique friendliness, informal atmosphere and exceptional hospitality.
Shap Wells was opened in 1833 to serve the growing numbers of visitors coming to take the waters of the Shap Spa, located in the hotel`s grounds. Under the ownership of the Earl of Lonsdale the hotel became a fashionable resort visited by many members of the aristocracy, the best known of these being HRH Princess Mary, Aunt of HM the Queen, who came with the Lonsdale Shooting Parties to the hotel in the 1920`s and early 30`s. During the second world war Shap Wells was requisitioned as a prisoner of war camp for senior Luftwaffe and German Naval Officers.
