The welcome was warm and the breakfast very good. Breakfast at 8.30 (no leeway!) We had to climb up to an attic room that was really cramped with sloping roofs which were ideally positioned to bang your head on...which we did. And the view was the rear yard. The little furnishings there was room for were too old and worn.... More

Booked this B&B with confidence after reading the reviews here & I'm glad to stay we weren't disappointed. Our room made for a lovely home from home with everything we needed to feel very comfortable. Breakfast was delicious & enough to mean we didn't really feel the need for lunch! Doreen is a great host & made us feel very... More

The couple who run College House are very friendly and welcoming, when we arrived we were shown to our room and given a quick tour of the house before being left to settle in. The room was comfortable, it had a large, cosy bed, TV/DVD player, hairdryer, toiletries, tea and coffee etc the little touches which make your stay that... More

The breakfast was so yummy and fresh I have never... More

I stayed in College House with my partner in room 2, what an amazing room, spacious, well decorated and a beautiful new bathroom. The whole guest house was wonderfully clean and well maintained. We had superb views of the mountains and of course College House's old country garden. Doreen and Frank were very helpful throughout our three night stay with... More

I'm not entirely sure what happened with the other reviewer but what we had experienced was completely different - there might have been a communication problem in the previous case. We arrived at Windermere without a hotel booking for that night and ended up looking for vacancies on the streets. We found College House behind a well maintained garden and... More
