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.

Grand old hotel from years gone by at a more than decent price. Lovely staff. Stunning views. Almost complete silence. Food was good and well priced too. Espresso martinis on tap. Didn’t know that was possible. Every hotel and house needs this.

I visit Windermere on a regular basis to dance the Argentine Tango at the Ladyholme Centre not far from the town itself. While there i have stayed in a variety of accommodation and have always had a good experience. The distance between Windermere and Bowness is only a walk of around 20 minutes. Buses are frequent within the area. There are plenty of cafes and restaurants in and around the town to choose from and it is a safe place for Solo travellers to explore.

Bowness on Windermere is much livelier and you can see the lake and go on lake ferries from there, whereas Windermere itself is much higher up and does not have direct lake access. A great place to eat and some wonderful cakes is Sweet dreams on Quarry Rigg.

The area was mostly fine.

The area was mostly fine. In some areas the town was looking tired. Absence of any visible street cleaning. We must have passed an area where someone had let their dog foul the pavement at least eight times as we walked up and down to our guest house and back down towards the lake I know it’s individual dog owners where the responsibility lies but even so it’s a big tourist area So one would expect a bit more pride in the area Unfortunately we won’t be rushing back to visit

Windermere is a vibrant town.

Windermere is a vibrant town. It has a great choice of restaurants, cafes and bars offering a great range of food genres. It has a lot of independent shops with wonderful window displays and friendly, helpful teams. It has a spectacular lake which is lovely to walk beside.It is also a gateway to other towns in the wider area of the Lake District.

Scenery was breathtaking. Fabulous restaurants, coffee shops and boutique shops. We had fantastic food at the Thai restaurant King of Siam. Had a trip around the lake and drove to Cockermouth, Keswick and Scafell Pike.

Windermere town centre is small but has plenty of cafes and restaurants to meet all food lovers types. There are a good selection of shops for gifts etc. and all are within a few hundred yards and not too far from the railway station or buses to travel to other parts of the lakes. It is also a 10 to 15 minute walk to Bowness (downhill) which is also the place to hop on to the lake boats or alternative dining or shopping and the Beatrix Potter experience. My pictures are of the lake side in Bowness

The hotel grounds were very well kept and the location is around 20 minutes walk from the centre of Bowness on Windermere - few gradients to tackle but a nice walk. The swimming pool was warm and very clean - the hotel provided towels. Breakfast was good - hot - and plentiful - although if you want fried or poached eggs you need to ask (but not after 09:35 as “too late for eggs “ apparently). We did not eat dinner or lunch in the hotel so we can’t comment on the restaurant food quality. We enjoyed our stay and we would return.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Windermere Hotel. The room was very spacious and clean and had a wonderful view over the lake. The staff went above and beyond, making the room look romantic for our anniversary, for which we are very grateful. The breakfast buffet had a great choice and was very tasty. Overall, the whole experience was very enjoyable, and we will be coming back again.

Home from Home. Everything you need. Attentive and helpful host. Spacious, well laid out. Quiet location. My octogenarian parents loved it. Ideal for accessing both Bowness and Windermere. Upside down house, so bedrooms are cool in the summer 😎. 0.7 miles to the The Ro Hotel (Wedding Venue) by car if anyone needs to know that. Would definitely stay here again. ❤️
