We have just returnrd from a 3 night stay at this hotel, travelling by coach. My advice to anyone thinking of this is don't!! The hotel is at the top end of Windermere close by the railway/bus station. Every time you leave the hotel you are going up or down a hill. To the shops in Windermere it is about...

The hotel is situated at the top of Windermere which gives our front facing rooms their stunning scenic views of the...

Our room was very clean, comfortable and warm with en suite facilities and tea and coffee making facilities. It was lovely to return to a warm room and...
