We purchased and moved into Oakfold House in September 2023 after running a small bed and breakfast in Crail, near St Andrews in Scotland.

Oakfold House is a beautiful 4 star rated period Victorian residence built in Lakeland stone and retaining many original features. We are conveniently located in a quiet position between Bowness and Windermere, and are just a short walk away from both the Lake and Windermere itself. Guests have complimentary access to the luxurious Spa & Leisure Club at the Old England Hotel & Spa, just a short walk away.

There is a lot to do within Bowness and Windermere. The Lake is gorgeous all year round, with the different colours that reflect the seasons. There are boat trips that can be taken to other towns and locations around the Lake. There are a number of different walks too that are varied depending on experience and expectations. For those who like to shop, Bowness has plenty of independent shops that are not found in other high streets. There are plenty of restaurants and pubs catering for differing tastes as well as opportunities for that well-earned pint.
