    cozy room
    helpful staff

    would not hesitate to return there.

    Had a 2-night stay in a cozy room with a shared bathroom. The room had a flat-screen TV, electric kettle, and free toiletries. Clean towels were provided, and the heating worked well. Staff offered great tips on local walks and let me store luggage after checkout. All together, a charming getaway.

    low beam
    limited fridge

    Unfortunately, the beam above the bed was very low and I constantly had to be cautious not to bump my head. The mini fridge barely accommodated a drink considering it was advertised to be useful. the lack of information on parking options left me frustrated as carrying bags from the distant car park was quite a hassle.

    cozy room
    plush towels
    efficient shower
    missing kitchen utensils

    I had a really comfy stay, especially loved the well-appointed single room with cozy touches like plush towels and efficient shower. I was surprised by the mismatched kitchen utensils, though—definitely could have used some forks!

    noisy environment

    Great value for money with an awesome location near awesome bars and a quick stroll from the lakes! The friendly host was super helpful and the kitchen was perfect for our needs!

    A little noisy from adjacent rooms, but it didn’t ruin our good time.

    Just a suitable option for a stopover in Bowness-on-Windermere with great value for the money. The room was clean and comfortable, making it easy to rest after a long day. A note about parking options would be really helpful for newcomers.

    comfy bed

    Recommend it for couples seeking comfort

    Had a lovely comfy bed that made it hard to get up! Plus the staff were really welcoming, even offered to let me stash my bags after check out so I could enjoy the last day of my trip without any hassle.

    It was a bit pricey, but considering the experience, it felt acceptable.

    cosy room
    convenient parking
    noise issues
    night visibility
    maintenance concerns

    What a delightful experience! The room was cosy and very well-maintained, with a powerful shower that made mornings refreshing. A fully stocked kitchen was available for guest use, which was a perfect perk for simple meal preparations. The location was ideal, with easy access to local attractions and convenient parking nearby for around £10. a motion sensor floodlight at the entrance would have improved nighttime visibility, and there were minor issues with noise from neighboring rooms that could be disruptive.

    great location
    clean towels
    noisy road

    The location is just minutes away from a variety of little restaurants and takeaways, making meals a breeze. Clean towels and a hot shower were really good perks after a long day.

    The kitchen had a shortage of forks and mugs, especially when you have to drink out of an earthenware jug. The shared kitchen door was stiff and had cracked glass, which might throw you off upon arrival. If you're a light sleeper, be aware that the nearby road can be quite noisy, especially if your room faces it.
