Location: The hotel is sat on a slight hill just a few minutes’ walk to the centre of Bowness, or £3.00 in a taxi after a few beers Food: We had the four course meal on our first night and it was well presented and very tasty. Breakfast was the usual full English buffet but again very tasty with as... More

You could easily run out of superlatives describing this establishment. Over the years I have stayed in many hotels here and abroad and this was by far the best. Not only is the building impressive the food is worthy of 5 michelin stars. These were not just meals they were works of art. The scouse chef is a genius and... More

Just returned from a 4 night stay at this hotel. It's in a great location, quiet yet just five minutes walk from the hustle and bustle of Bowness. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The hotel boasts a great bar and restaurant, the buffet breakfast was very good with beautiful views of the lake and mountains. We had a... More

Sadly I was unable to find many faults with the hotel!!! We arrived on a Thursday and stayed 3 nights, taking advantage of a reduced standard tariff. The hotel is situated at the north of the main road into Bowness on Windermere. Being a 5 minute walk into Bowness on one side or a ten minute drive into Windermere on... More

Stayed here for 2 nights and couldn't fault it. The hotel's within walking distance of Bowness and the lake (5 mins) and also Windermere town (10 mins). The hotel's interior is typical of a hotel in Cumbria - comfortable, quiet and welcoming. We got a room with a view of the lake and the snow covered mountains which was very... More

My husband and I stayed at the hotel recently and found the rooms disappointing, very small and dated. A large crack in the bath had been sealed and the plumbing kept us awake all night (not the romance of the weekend). Although the food in the restaurant was very nice it was a shame that the staff felt the need... More

Just returned from a 2 night break. We were upgraded to a lake view which was a nice touch. The room was on the small size but we were told all room same size(??), the bed was a standard double, and the bathroom ok, seemed quite new, all quite clean. Breakfast was very average, probably with it being a quiet... More
