What a wonderful hotel. Greated by the owner when we arrived, explained everything about the hotel, offered to help us with the local area if we didn’t know how to get around. The breakfast choice was immense and everything we had was beautifully presented and perfectly cooked. Rich and Ada were both very welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. We will definitely stay here again. Location is perfect, the same distance from Bowness and Windermere and both being walkable

Great location and excellent service

Excellent location for walking into Windermere and Bowness. Very clean and comfortable room with everything provided for a short stay. The fridge and fresh milk for tea was really appreciated. The breakfast was delicious. Huge amount of cooked options and everything of a high quality.

Perfect location for staying in the Lake District

Situated in a convenient location on the main road between Windermere and Bowness, our stay was amazing. Rich and Ada were brilliant hosts, welcoming and was very helpful. Breakfast was one of the best we've had in the UK and comes with so many different options. We had booked a cost double room but didn't feel that small to be fair. They were cleaned daily and the bed was so comfortable. There is no doubt that if we come back to the Lake District, this would be where we would stay again.

The property was well located within walking distance to the lake at Bowness. The room was very well equipped with everything you could possibly need. The free breakfast was excellent with the best choice we had ever seen. The staff were amazing, being so attentive and engaging.
