Mixologist – Another Place, The Lake | Food and Beverage
Warm
hospitality and contemporary comfort combine with breathtaking views over
Ullswater and the surrounding fells.
At Another
Place, The Lake, guests come to slow down, reconnect with nature and spend time
doing what they love — paddleboarding across the lake, swimming beneath a full
moon, exploring the fells and sharing great food with friends and family.
For our
team, it’s just as special.
Working
here means being part of a welcoming community where you can grow your career,
develop your skills and help create memorable experiences for our guests in one
of the most inspiring settings in the UK.
For our
guests, how their stay makes them feel is crucial; cared about, looked after,
welcome. It’s the heart and soul of our active relaxation concept, made
possible by the people on our team.
