"A lovely apartment right in the centre of Bowness-On-Windermere. The accommodation was spotless, cleaning spray, washing up liquid and cloths were provided.
The bed was lovely and comfortable.
People have mentioned the stairs up to the apartment. They caused us no problem but if people have mobility problems I can understand they might be a problem.
If we return to the area we would stay here again. I am glad I didn’t book somewhere in Windermere, this was five minute walk to the lake. "
"We had a lovely stay at this well presented property. Our room was spacious with a separate seating area with TV from the bedroom. Breakfast was absolutely fantastic and cooked to order.
We will definitely return, thank you."
"This was extremely comfy stay with relaxing vibes , I strongly recommend this guest house , and definitely it would be my option fir my next Windermere trip."

Macdonald Old England Hotel & Spa
10/10 Excellent
"Lovely clean hotel. Staff very helpful and friendly."
"No restaurant open on arrival at 7pm in hotel for evening meal but Bistro next door is attached. Food was good and hot!
Breakfast was buffet with good plentiful selection of cooked, cereal, juices, etc.
Beds very comfortable, quiet room, super shower. Car park was cincession £6 per night, difficult to get out safely due to exit being on a steep bend. Staff were pleasant and helpful."
"Lovely hitel in an udeal location, 5 min walk to Windermere Kake and town center with plenty of shops and eateries.
The spa is ideal after a busy day out to unwind in.
Cosy small double room was also modern and comfy, and a good size.
Complimentary Elemis toiletries in bathroom too.
We ate at the restaurant onsite which was very enjoyable."
"Lovely guest house. Rooms clean and well laid out. Beds very comfy. En suite small but has everything you need. Breakfast was fabulous, staff were very attentive without being overbearing. Good selection of cereals and pastries plus cooked options."
"Situated in a convenient location on the main road between Windermere and Bowness, our stay was amazing. Rich and Ada were brilliant hosts, welcoming and was very helpful. Breakfast was one of the best we've had in the UK and comes with so many different options. We had booked a cost double room but didn't feel that small to be fair. They were cleaned daily and the bed was so comfortable. There is no doubt that if we come back to the Lake District, this would be where we would stay again."
"A really great stay in a very nice room. The staff seemed nice enough, the wifi speed was incredible and the hotel also has a decent (free) car park for guests. Very reasonable price and super modern room. Couldn't fault it."
"Beautiful location, views are stunning on the outside terrace, rooms are lovely whilst small has all you need although would suggest a mirror on the dressing table. Breakfast was lovely, drinks very reasonably priced with a good selection and lovely welcoming staff. "
