Great hosts and very clean - great experience

Our first stay and we would definitely stay again. We had a small problem with our booking and the hosts couldn’t have been more accommodating - really helped us out. Room 10 is beautiful, lots of space, massive bed and a great tea tray! Parking was fine and onsite. Great location and the garden is lovely to sit in too. A really lovely place to stay.

Although it’s saying bed & breakfast on the sign that is barely visible it’s not and if you don’t do stairs make sure you’re on a low floor and the shower cubicle was small in room 6

Lovely small h, with kind, helpful,friendly staff.

We had a lovely stay here. There is on street parking, and also you can park at the back. The hotel owner was friendly and helpful with any advice you needed with regard to nearby walks and amenities. We came with friends for a seventies themed murder, mystery night. The photo you see was taken in the hotel's front garden. The hotel was also very close to all amenities. The room was comfortable and we were well supplied with towels and toiletries. I think the room was good value for money, considering this is Windermere. I would recommend this hotel for couples or friends and family.

A pleasant stay

Mark was very friendly and accommodating to our questions or requests. The room was very clean and was everything that we needed for a base following our biking activities and a wedding evening do. Only downside was that you couldn’t eat breakfast on-site but we found plenty of places that did breakfast in Bowness within walking distance down the road.
