The room enhanced my trip to the Lakes.
Pros:

Stayed in one of the Annex rooms with an outside area facing the lake. The views were beautiful and made the room extra special. Breakfast was included in the price and was perfect. All the usual choices to eat and a professional coffee machine to enjoy.
Would strongly recommend a stay here.

Cons:

No mini fridge in the room is the only negative.

Pros:

Loved this hotel and 3 night stay! We had a family room which had plenty of room, access to a small balcony and beautiful green trees to look out upon. The hotel had lots of fab features, a great breakfast offering, and best of all the view from the terrace of the lake and hills beyond. Ample parking and a 2 mile easy walk into Bowness, or short drive/bus ride.

Cons:

Only gave 9 stars as the bathroom flooded at each use of the shower

With gratitude to Manor hotel
Pros:

My friend Janice and I were looking on a voucher website to book a hotel in Windermere. We came across the Manor Hotel but had trouble making the booking using the said website. So my friend rung up the hotel directly and spoke to a very nice lady called Rita who confirmed availability and sorted out a booking for us. After a long drive there, we were in awe of seeing such an impressive looking building in wonderful landscaped grounds with plenty of free parking. The inside was equally impressive. A lovely receptionist gave us the key card to the room and as luck had it , Rita booked us a twin room with a view over to the lake in the distance. The Manor hotel comes with a lovely and very clean swimming pool. We even discovered gowns and slippers in our bedroom cupboard to wear for going down to the pool, the towels you find at the pool side. All very well organised. My friend and I had a swim every morning before breakfast. Talking of breakfast, there is a choice of hot English breakfast and another section of more continental choice. We always sat in the conservatory breakfast room with a view across the well kept garden terrace over to the lake. My bed was super comfy. The room had an ensuite bathroom, TV and tea and coffee making facility. Our thanks go to all hotel staff from cleaner to room attendant, kitchen and bar staff, reception and manager for being very helpful and accommodating, making our three night break a fantastic memorable stay. We definitely would recommend this hotel if you are looking for a quiet and relaxing stay in Windermere. Thanks again Hildegard and Janice
