Lovely guest house, situated in a quiet part of the lake district however is on 4mins drive to the busy town
Staff were so friendly and helpful
Place was lovely and clean
Would definitely recommend
Great hotel in a great location,wonderful staff great breakfast,clean rooms. Perfect for touring Windermere and local attractions,bars and restaurants all within walking distance.
I checked in super late and they had a game plan in place to accommodate my late arrival even though there is not a person on site after hours. The location is awesome to access the restaurants, shops, and activities within Windermere. Would stay there again in a heartbeat.
Nice quiet location within easy walking distance to town. Spacious clean rooms, friendly staff

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Nice staff, although weren’t flexible about cancelling or changing the reservation when asked. Area is nice and close to the town. Room and bathroom were nice. The bed was annoying for a couple, as it was supposed to be a superior double room but the bed was two single beds put together. The bed sheets were supposed to hold the two beds together, but it didn’t really work well. Sleeping together would mean one of you would end up sinking into the gap in between the two beds. Overall very clean, only the kettle needed a little re-clean upon arrival.
Comfortable, clean, spacious room 7. Fabulous breakfast, hot, tasted lovely, attention to detail. Great location. Checked to return again, but no dates available for us.
Sue and the team are so pleasant to be around. They do a superb job of making you feel as if you’re at home the breakfast is divine, hands-down, perfection. The character and charm of this hotel is perfect for somebody looking for an ideal landscape and atmosphere. I had a hard time leaving this hotel;)
Lovely little hotel - really clean room.
Staff very friendly and welcoming.
Close to shops and restaurants/bars.
About a 7 minute walk to lake Windermere.
Would definitely stay again.
The hotel is very cute and homey. Everything was within walking distance. The only recommendation I have is if you are a larger size person request a room with a bigger bathroom because there’s really no room to maneuver around the regular sized ones if you are a larger sized person
Stayed here a few weeks ago, was a magical experience. Brilliant value for money in a stunning location. Manager was very friendly, will be back one day for sure, kind regards, William and Lisa 🙂👍
