Really nice hotel spa if you’re thinking of a long weekend in Windermere The staff are lovely and helpful and the breakfast was really good! The hotel generally is nice too. Only thing I will say is that the spa section is too small in proportion to the amount of guests that can stay at the hotel, it filled out quickly, to the point where it’s felt like there were too many people in the general area. Steam room and one of the hot tubs didn’t work either which was a bit of a let down. 4/5 overall!

The property facilities and room were lovely. I particularly enjoyed the hot tub with the gorgeous view. My only criticism would be that the shower requires updating. It took along time to heat up and power was very poor.

We had the most fantastic stay for my husbands birthday. We were absolutely breath taken from the moment we stepped through the doors. The service was second to none, absolutely fantastic so polite and friendly! The standard was impeccable and we were made to feel so special throughout our stay. The spa was beautiful and we got an upgrade to a gorgeous room which made our stay so special. The Elemis products in the bathroom was a huge plus. Stunning views and just what we needed, the perfect one night stay for a couple needing a break from reality. Thank you so much and we can’t wait to come back soon
