In its early days, the Waterhead frequently welcomed the illustrious Victorian artist and social critic, John Ruskin, as a guest. Ruskin's home, Brantwood, lies just across the lake and many of his visitors including Charles Darwin would stay as guests at the Waterhead. During the Second World War, the hotel became a school for evacuees - Sir Robin Day being amongst its pupils. For conferences, the hotel can host a minimum number of 4 delegates and a maximum of 20. Waterhead is licensed for Civil Marriages/Partnerships.
