We had a very enjoyable weekend at Windermere House to celebrate Kathy's birthday. The complementary bottle of Preseco was a very generous and appreciated surprise. The staff were very attentive to our needs and very helpful. All in all a pleasant experience. Thanks so much.

It's a beautiful property, I wish there were more amenities and active services. In winter 1-2days would be the maximum stay length , as the surrounding area, as beautiful as it id it's not walkable. Sauna and Jacuzzi were nice. Breakfast was really good. Bar food wasn't bad, but could defend have some music.

We enjoyed our stay, basic rooms, comfortable beds. Scenic setting, even in the winter. Friendly, helpful staff. Enjoyed the hot tub and outdoor saunas. Really nice buffet breakfast that was included. One option for lunch and dinner, pub style food but tasty. During the warmer months you have 2 options for dining.
