We only stayed for one night, but the stay was first class. Our room was lovely, comfortable and immaculate. The breakfast was very tasty and hot. Michael met us when we arrived he was very pleasant and informative. We will stay again hopefully soon. More

This was our third return trip to Oakfold House and as ever it does not disappoint. Location is superb - an easy 5 minute walk down into Bowness or a slightly longer 20 min up the road into Windemere. Rooms are very clean and well laid out, we were on the top floor in Room 6 with a view over... More

We recently stayed at this B&B for our wedding anniversary. We found the B&B to be very comfortable. There was always plenty of choice for breakfast with a range of cooked food, continental style breakfast and cereals/yoghurts to choose from. The owner acknowledged our anniversary by kindly giving us a card and chocolates which was a nice touch. The location... More

Just had a 2 night stay at Oakfold House. Very good location - walking distance from Bowness where there's some nice shops, restaurants and the lake (for boat trips). B+B is nicely decorated, was very quiet and has off road parking. Room comfortable with a bottle of wine on arrival, which was a nice gesture (as we booked online). Some... More

Beautiful B&B in an excellent location. Room lovely and a very comfortable bed. Breakfast was delicious and plentiful, when we requested some soya milk this was not a problem actually I don't think any request would be a problem. We will most definately stay here again and would highly recommend it . Mr & Mrs Hitchell (stayed 30/09/11----03/10/11) More

Would certainly give Oakfold House the thumbs up. Lovely room with comfortable bed , powerful shower and tea and coffee making facilities. Was unable to get wi-fi connection which was a bit disappointing but everything else, including the breakfast was faultless. More

We have just returned from a very comfortable stay in Oakfold House. Although the weather wasn't kind to us, the welcome was very warm. We booked for 5 nights, but extended to 6 nights as the accommodation was first class. We stayed in a superior immaculate room with very comfortable bed, & the room was well equipped with toiletries, hairdrier,... More

My fiancé and I stayed here for 3 nights over the August Bank Holiday weekend. The Guest House is on a quiet road just off the main road to Windermere, with a small private car park to the rear and is about 6-7 minutes from the centre of Bowness. Our ground floor room was tastefully furnished and decorated with a... More
