Lovely stay
Really lovely place, the photos don’t do it justice. It’s a great location for us 20 minutes walk from the lake and restaurants and 10 minute walk the opposite direction to Windermere town.
The room was lovely and breakfast is recommended especially the pancakes.

Great hotel
We stayed for two nights, the staff were very friendly and welcoming. The room was very nice with everything that you could need, great tea tray, lovely toiletries etc. very comfortable bed, good lighting and a nice hot shower. The breakfast was delicious with plenty of choice. Plenty of parking too and in a great location for walking to both Bowness and Windermere. We would definitely stay here again. The only negative issue was a thoughtless guest on our final night who played the TV very loudly and had no regard for other guests.

Definitely would stay here again
Great location! Totally enjoyed this hotel, especially at the rate, great value for the price. Lovely breakfast! My only request is add a luggage rack to the bedrooms to the rooms. No place to put my suitcase!

The room was small, and some of the furniture was dated and damaged (knocked chipped), but it was clean. The breakfast was excellent and the service was great. Would we stay here again yes but maybe upgrade the room choice

Friendly staff and the room was clean and the bed comfortable, the breakfast aas delicious and prepared fresh.
Only a few things they can improve on-
The shower wasn't that powerful, the head didnt really acheive must power or water where it was needed, not adjustable.
The bar only offered bottled beer and lacked atmosphere, their missing out on not having the guests relax in the lounge area, a social club a couple of minutes walk was freindly.
