• Daffodil Life

Nestled on the glass-like shores of Grasmere, The Daffodil Hotel & Spa has one of the most idyllic locations in the country. Our 4* luxury hotel features 78 contemporary bedrooms, a lakeside restaurant, award-winning Spa, stylish bar, an outdoor terrace and wedding gazebo plus a stunning collection of beautiful wedding and event suites.

Luxury, spoiling and indulgence are our speciality, but there is so much more to The Daffodil that makes us extra-special... and that is our people.

Find your Dream Job | Daffodil Life

Daffodil Life is a place to celebrate and support our talented team - a place to bring all of your achievements together, to recognise your incredible hard work and service, share your ideas, create new incentives and discuss your experiences. 

No one ever made a difference by being like everyone else...

Like the flower itself, The Daffodil evolved to bloom into its stylish form today, but this wonderful place would not exist without you, our fabulous team.

We're proud to be home to one of the most inspiring groups of hospitality talent in the country. Featuring diverse personalities, keen interests, exciting skills and backgrounds, it's our people behind the scenes that truly keep our guests coming back year after year.

The Daffodil's origins began as a local family's dream and though we've grown over the years, our family ethos is still at the core of all we do.

From the very best front of house team to our amazing chefs, meticulous housekeeping and operations staff, highly skilled therapists and forward-thinking marketing team - The Daffodil is formed by those who like to do things a little differently; doers, believers and dreamers.

Community is at the heart of our service - collectively, we work hard and strive for the best, celebrating our team's unique diversity. We are advocates for supporting local through giving back, being there for one another, nurturing our Cumbrian partnerships and fundraising for our chosen charity Marie Curie. 

All of this is what lies in store when you join The Daffodil family, but there's more. Daffodil Life comes with a wealth of benefits...
