Pros:

The location and free parking.

Cons:

It's almost like they don't care! The hotel was unbearably warm. It was tatty. We had a lovely large bedroom where the curtains either didn't reach the floor or they were off the curtain ring, making it look like a drug den. What's with all of the lights? The walls were paper thin. We could hear the people in the next room talking.
Breakfast was okay. The male member of staff lurked and took our juice glasses without asking. He just dived on them. Don't get me started on the fake plastic metro tiles in the dining room.
We checked out a day early! The receptionist didn't check our booking, just took the key card and waved us away. No words of safe travels or have a nice day....! We had just completed the NC500 in Scotland. We stayed in 9 other hotels along the way. This was the most disappointing.

Great Hotel in a good location with friendly staff.
Pros:

The Hotel is in a good location to Windermere or Bowness.
Lovely spacious ground floor room in the Annexe with a country view and private patio with a table and chairs. Super comfy extra large bed, robes and slippers provided, and all the amenities you could need. Only 2 hangers in the wardrobe so good job we always take our own. Short walk from the Annexe to the Hotel for breakfast, which had a good selection of cereals, freshly cooked food, pastries, yoghurt etc., and a coffee machine to help yourself. Staff very friendly and helpful too. Free on site parking which is a bonus. I'd have no hesitation in recommending the Windermere Manor Hotel and we'll definitely return again in the future.

Cons:

Nothing

Pros:

The property location and the property itself was surrounded by beautiful nature..it is simply phenomenal to experience the nature and beautiful surroundings. Room size was good.

Cons:

Staff would help you and guide you, but after rolling their eyes and making faces!
Basic amenities like shampoo and conditioner was not in the bathroom... bathroom has some bad smell, for which they sprayed room freshener but the smell came back within hours.

Pros:

Gorgeous views from the gardens, absolutely amazing building we couldn't have asked for more. Right near the town center and just a short drive from Bowness-on-Windemere which was a beautiful drive and perfect place for a walk and some food
