We arrived on the day of extensive flooding across Cumbria and encountered many flooded roads turning back and trying alternative roads to Hawkshead. Eventually our journey came to a halt in Windermere as we could go no further, and we were deserate for a bed and some pampering. What a delight Martin Cooper was when a bedragled traveller asked for... more

I have just returned home after my fourth stay at The Willowsmere and each time it just gets better and better. On arrival you are greeted with a warm welcome and a pot of tea, just what's needed after a long drive. I stayed in room 4 the luxary single, this is a lovely room and has everything you need... more

We stayed 2 nights in the Lake District, and overall were disappointed with our stay. We were greeted on arrival, and shown to quite a small room on the 2nd floor, nothing like the beautiful rooms shown on the the website. Parking was good, and convenient. Breakfast was a good selection, although was surprised when one couple came down, and... more

Lovely friendly hotel. Even though we were three hours later that estimated (i was travel sick) we were still given a very friendly welcome and a cup of tea (badly needed!). Room was clean, comfortable and warm. It had all modern amenities but retained the house character. We were impressed with the flatscreen TV and freeview! We enjoyed the tea... more

The trip was to celebrate my husband 45th birthday. The hotel was everything and more than we expected. Pefectly located for Windermere and exploring the Lakes in general. Our room was lovely, the little touches made it so special - fluffy white towels etc. The breakfast was superb - such a choice! The icing on the cake was the friendliness... more

Prior to visiting the Willowsmere, we had both read reviews describing how it was such a lovely place to stay and the hosts that were so welcoming. Although it was a lovely sentiment, the email prior to arrival felt rather impatient as we wanted to drive up leisurely and hadn't really thought about time of arrival therefore then felt that... more

Myself and my partner have just returned from a weekend away at the willowsmere. It was a lovely building, with very clean and lovely old fashioned rooms (yet had all the mod cons you would need, my partner was very pleased with the large flat screen tv) Located well, a five minute walk from windermere centre, and about a 30... more

Stayed at the Willowsmere cottage at Easter for a week and enjoyed every moment. Stayed with mum and daughters first weekend, then husband and son joined me for the rest of the week to fish!!! The weather wasn't the best and the fish didn't bite but the cottage was comfortable, clean, warm and welcoming.The beds are home from home... slept... more

My partner booked this hotel on a last minute trip as we were hoping to take in a walk in the unexpectedly good weather before attending a conference the next day. As soon as we walked in we were attended to and told about every last detail by a lady who showed no sign of giving the same speech day... more
