Restaurant Manager Mizu at the Lodore Falls Hotel & Spa

Weve taken the Japanese expression for water Mizu as inspiration for our Pan-Asian restaurant. With the lake on one side and the Lodore Falls on the other (plus our famous Cumbrian climate!), Mizu certainly lives up to its name, offering guests a unique opportunity to taste fresh, Asian-inspired dishes in the heart of the Lake District.
