++ = Superb location. Clean. Room had everything you could require. Bowness is a quaint lakeside village. -- = Not cheap for size of room. Stairs no lift. Most rooms are upper floors. Almost EVERYTHING closes at 12.00am.

Where do we start, we have just returned from at night staying in the Den are trip has been perfect in every way. The den is absolutely stunning, everything is decorated to a high standard and the hot tub was everything. I loved when we checked in the hot tub was ready for us, the heating was on and there was a bottle of Prosecco waiting. The location is literally right in the heart of Ambleside walking distance to all the pubs shops and restaurants. We would recommend the Albert for drinks and the magic roundabout for breakfast (the best latte ever).We cannot wait to come back and cannot recommend enough.

Absolutely fabulous place! We stayed for two nights mid- September and booked a ground floor room. We had a small scare due to the weather and the team went above and beyond by putting us up in the honeymoon suite, at no extra cost. We were even able to use the hot tub and drink a bottle of Prosecco that they’d left out for us. Fabulous property and top location in the centre of Bowness. 100% recommended!

We stayed at the White House for my partners birthday at the beginning of August and loved it. The room was immaculate and cosy. The location was perfect, being close to everything that you could need. Just a small suggestion for the hosts - we noticed that there was no bubble bath. Otherwise a perfect stay and we will definitely be back!

You will not be disappointed with the Den! It is beautiful l’y decorated and very convenient to all the bars and restaurants. The hot tub was great after a day of exploring! A real treat! The kitchen is small but more than adequate to prepare breakfast and some lunch if needed. We really enjoyed our stay and would love to return in the future.

We stayed in October and were very pleased with the location of the accommodation. It was beautifully decorated/maintained and exactly as described when booking. We really enjoyed our stay at The Whitehouse and would stay again and recommend to friends/family. We had a few tiny snags with the accommodation, the first being that the bathroom/wet room become very wet and slippery after showering and took about 2 hours of the fan being on/windows open for the condensation to clear. We also wish there was a shelf in the bathroom, as the window ledge became soaked from the shower. We also feel that the room could benefit from a coat hook, and visiting in October we really could have done with this. Overall, a really good stay and our ‘snags’ are truly minor and wouldn’t deter us from staying again.…
