A lovely stay in a beautiful guest house with excellent hospitality.
Pros:

Beautiful period property in a fantastic location, just a short walk from the town centre. The room was clean, comfortable, and full of character, and the staff were welcoming and friendly. The breakfast was excellent with plenty of choice, making it a great base for exploring Windermere.

Cons:

The only downside was the noise from dogs barking throughout our stay, including late into the evening and during the night. Unfortunately, it did disturb our sleep and took away slightly from what was otherwise a very enjoyable stay.

We had a lovely stay, we’d definitely come back.
Pros:

Excellent location. 15 min walk to busy areas in both directions. Breakfast was superb! The fresh cookies in the room was also a very lovely touch particularly enjoyed by our 3 year old.

Cons:

We were in the family room 105. The room was lovely but it was right by the out of hour entrance and appeared to be the only room in that area which was a little nosy at times. It would be better if the “children’s room” was the room furthest from the door as every time I almost got my 3rd old to sleep someone would walk in and be noisy. With it being on the ground floor of a very old hotel on a steep hill the room also made me feel a little dizzy when getting out of bed or up from a chair ect with it being on a slant. This is not something I’d experienced before and didn’t affect the rest of my family but as soon as we left the hotel room it went.

Pit stop on the way down to Bowness for some refreshment whilst sitting on the terrace with a view to the lake in the distance, great spot.
