Dog friendly

We had a 2 night stay here. Our first time staying at this hotel. We are looking to visit again. Dog friendly. Which is essential for us. Allowed everywhere but swimming pool (understandable) and 1 lounge room. There was a good size run free area for dogs. Which we used. We found the hotel to be nice. Nice comfy areas to sit and chill. A light airy conservatory to eat food in. Bar area with tables to eat at. Food was good. Service was good and polite. Room was clean and tidy. Beds comfortable. There was always parking space. A nice outdoor seating area. We used the pool a couple of times. Towels available and shower area with shampoo and body wash. A basic pool that starts at 1m deep and goes to 1.5m deep. Overall it was a nice place to stay.

Very Unsatisfactory.

As I booked on Hotels.com I didn't realise that this hotel is ULTA pet friendly. We stayed in their annex a spacious superior room with a lovely outdoor patio area. When we went in the room there was a strong odour of shake & vac and on the patio there was a full doggy bag left on the edge of the area, plus a full ashtray ! As the strong smell from the shake & vac wore off there was a stinky dog smell in the room. Behind the annex there's a dog walk which was full of poo left everywhere. That night I had an asthma attack and the next morning asked the receptionist if we could move to another room, she was very unhelpful and accusative, she said she would speak to the manager. I know I should have done more research before I booked, but they could have been more understanding. I gave them a few hours and called in the afternoon, the new receptionist didn't know anything about my request but offered to check, no more news from them until we returned later and another receptionist who didn't know anything ! I couldn't stay another night so we decided to leave and go home early. Very unsatisfactory. Unless you are dog people looking for a doggy resort do not book this hotel.

The hotel is old & a bit tired in places, but comfortable. Beds are comfy. Our room on the first floor was well ventilated, but the attic rooms are less so. A car is required unless you’re a good walker as it’s 1.5 miles from Bowness.

Lovely stay. Staff all very welcoming. Food lovely with extensive buffet breakfast and dinner was also very nice. Rooms spacious but could have maybe done with some updating. Nice balcony which we couldnt use unfortunately due to the weather.Lovely views of lake windemere from the grounds. We enjoyed the pool and were lucky enough to have it to ourselves every day. Location good but did mean we had to drive. Didnt struggle to get parked at the hotel.

I have stayed at Windermere Manor a few times before, but this time my room was substandard. The cleanliness of the room was questionable, with mould very visible on several windows and rust and stains on the carpet next to the radiator (I have taken photos). Also, no full length mirror in the room, just a small wall mounted mirror in the bathroom. The staff however were lovely. But, I will genuinely think twice before staying here again.

Brilliant 1 night stay. Spacious clean room. Breakfast was nice. Parking on site. 25min walk to the centre of Bowness. The only slight bad point was a member of staff in the office behind reception F-ing and jeffing very loud about another member of staff while we were checking in.
