This hotel is beautiful and nicely positioned overlooking Windermere. The lounge, terrasse and dining room are all well appointed and elegant. The meals are good and the breakfast was particularly delicious. The staff are all friendly and helpful, taking time to assist with whatever you need to know. Our bedroom, although slightly smaller than I expected, was comfortable, clean and had a lovely view.

The property was beautiful in a reserved old building style. The breakfast room/dining room was gorgeous and the furnishings were stunning. Staff were lovely. It was just a few hundred metres to the Windermere strip shops, had private off road parking and the £3pp each way bus to Bowness where the lake cruises leave from was only a couple of hundred metres away. Breakfast was great and the staff very helpful with the luggage.

Lake Windermere

Stretching out for 11 miles, Windermere is the longest body of water in England. A variety of vessels cruise around, steadily ferrying visitors from shore to shore. While the water itself is loved by rowers, wind-surfers, swimmers and all manner of watersports enthusiasts, the lake’s surrounding trails offer a paradise for hikers and ramblers.

    Stunning.

    Stunning. If you're in Bowness and look north towards the mountains north of Ambleside, it's one of the best views in the UK. There is also a viewpoint a little way north on the road from Bowness to Ambleside.

    Lake Windermere is very popular and can be busy around the Jetty areas where people take a trip on the water. Just out of town the Lake Jetty Museum show some beautiful boats that have seen time on the water. There is also a trip you can purchase there. For motor fanatics, the motor museum just out of town shows a very extensive selection of cars bikes and motor vehicles of all areas. They also show the world land and water speed records made by the Campbells. Definitely worth a visit if you are Into that kind of thing. A cafe is available. Parking is a available at both places.

    We had an amazing luxury room with balcony, which we did not expect. The hotel is amazing as they take care of the smallest details. In house dining was really good example of fine dining. The grounds around the hotel were perfect for an evening or morning stroll. We went on a cruise around the Lake Windermere in 1920’s wooden boat, such class!! Really recommend this hotel. The staff made us feel really at home

    Food was very good and plentiful. View from restaurant was amazing over looking lake windermere. Close to town centre (10 minutes by car) 10 minutes from popular walks. Chef accommodated vegan options and food in general was very good. Lots of parking out front and at the rear of the hotel. Staff were friendly and offered different when requested.

    On the outside, aesthetically, it’s beautiful. Set in a rural location with fantastic immediate views of nature. We had the added bonus of it being sunny and our room looked out at the nearby hills which was an added bonus. Internally the hotel was quite small which made it feel quite homely. Well situated to local attractions such as Lake Windermere and Ambleside.
