Nice bright good size comfortable room in a great location. Very clean.
位置优越,房间干净明亮
La stanza molto carina, l atmosfera, il benvenuto lasciato agli ospiti
10/10 — Wonderful stay I was very happy with my two-night stay. The location is excellent, and everything has been thoughtfully arranged to make guests feel comfortable. Communication with the hosts was clear, helpful and pleasantly unobtrusive. All the little details have been well considered, and everything I needed was provided. The room was quiet and peaceful, and the bed was very comfortable. I felt completely satisfied with my stay and would happily recommend this place. Thank you very much for a lovely stay — 10/10!
The only thing I found a little inconvenient was the floor, which was quite creaky and sometimes rather loud. I kept wondering who might be staying below and whether I was disturbing them. The hairdryer could also be updated, as it wasn’t very powerful. The room was perfectly fine for one person, although it might feel a little small for two people. Overall, these were only minor points and didn’t affect my enjoyment of the stay.
The hosts are very accommodating, very friendly and always available. The location is fantastic easily accessible to all main attractions/Walking/Lakes/boat trips/shops/restaurants 😊
The bathroom/shower room was very small and required a refurb.
Tout est bien !
Very cosy brilliant selection of nibbles in the room coffee tea even hot chocolate biscuits and flapjacks great guide books in room for walks and restaurants etc. Great location lovely hosts short walk in to Bowness or Windermere very quiet of a night perfect for a good nights sleep. Room had everything required and more.
Everything was perfect.
房东人很好,很热情,卫生也是他们自己打扫的,尽心尽力。房间设施蛮全面,住着还挺舒服的,我们住在顶层的阁楼,我个人很喜欢阁楼有窗的感觉。交通的话出门走一点就是公交站,很方便。
不是房东的问题,不过我们隔壁房间晚上过来一直没有找到自己的房间,午夜敲门试图用他的钥匙开门还是吓了我们几个女孩一跳,不过后来应该是打电话给房东,房东上来把他放进去了。
Best guest house ever
Very organised
Simple but very nice
Access at any time. Bathroom ok. Bed okay. Clean
Very small room. Very top stairs. Hot room. Like bedsit. Overpriced. No fixed parking
A perfect stay from start to finish! I loved the squash ☺️ The guesthouse was spotless, comfortable, and beautifully maintained. The hosts were warm and welcoming, and nothing was too much trouble. Great location, peaceful atmosphere, and excellent attention to detail. We would highly recommend it and would definitely stay again!
We have nothing but positive things to say.
The area was beautiful, room was clean and comfortable

This was an ideal location, halfway between Windermere and Bowness, walkable in both directions. Hosts were very welcoming and frequently checking we had everything we needed. An excellent stay.
We both would have liked harder beds, but that is a personal choice.
Lovely and clean . Location excellent
All good
Every thing was nice and clean

Incredibly clean and comfortable
Great value - nice location. Comfortable and clean.
Very comfortable -loved the ground coffee
Only a 1 cup cafetière!
The room was lovely, bright and clean. It had everything we needed and I loved the extra, thoughtful touches. Especially loved the big window and comfy bed.
Nothing to dislike at all.
Amazing guest house and so well maintained
Nothing it’s fantastic
The location was perfectly in between Bowness and Windermere and was an easy walk to either. It was also right around the corner from a bus stop which made it an idyllic location. The beds were also very comfortable and the bathroom facilities were great with a good shower that had good water pressure.
Both of the curtains in the bathroom and the bedroom of the room I was in had black mold on the back and should probably be changed as that can cause health problems for some people.
Cosy room, exactly what we needed for a short stay. Felt well looked after.

Location was a part way between the busy areas of Windermere and Bowness, so pleasant walking distance to both. There is a wonderful walk through the woods just up and across the main road. (The entrance is a bit hard to find by the bus stop.) In the room the small fridge was appreciated and the bed was comfortable and the shower good. The Booths shop and cafe by the train station is excellent.
It was a bit far to walk from the train station, but the bus service is good. The room was fairly small but did have windows for good air circulation. No complaints really.
Comfortable bed
Location was great. Midway between W'mere & Bowness & free street parking.
Cleanliness, comfortable, near sightseeing and restaurants and hosts are very welcome and gave us good recommendations
Sehr schöner kleiner Raum, ganz oben unterm Dach. Sehr gemütlich 😃👍
CleAnliness
Le calme et la gentillesse des hôtes
The owners are wonderful - they were always on hand to answer any questions and it genuinely felt like there was someone looking out for us. I said to my partner that it's one of those places I would be thrilled to stay at as a solo traveller, especially as a female, as the neighbourhood felt safe but the owners make you feel safe too! Our room was perfect - really clean and the bed was super comfy! Bathroom was great and they even have squash with the tea/coffee area which I think is a great idea! We will definitely be staying again.
Very satisfied, perfect room, highly recommended
Location great room was fine and bed comfy but very worn paper peeling off walls cobwebs around loft hatch thick dust on toilet roll holder some mould in bathroom and when I looked behind headrest for plug it was this with dust could do with sprucing up but was a comfortable stay for one night
Clean and cosy

Very clean and tidy, easily accessible and in a great location.
There was nothing to dislike about this properly
The location was perfect, the hosts were great checking in on us after the first night to check all was ok. The room was clean and comfy, will definitely go again if I go to Windermere. Instructions for the key were clear and info in the room about things to do etc were helpful.
Nothing
Room 4 was presented lovely and plenty big enough. Also the bathroom was of a good size with lots of space for our belongings. Very happy with the whole experience and we'll definitely be back in the future.
Nothing negative to report!
The property was close to both Windermere and Bowness. It was clean, warm and had all the facilities we needed for a short break.
There was nothing we disliked about the property.
Room only. but some nice personal touches throughput. perfect location for the lakes
it’s a lovely guest house with parking in a location where parking is prime. nothing to dislike
Close to everything, bus stops and train extremely close. Basically right in village centre. Room had everything we needed including a mini fridge which was amazing. The room was very clean, the bed was extremely comfortable and extra blankets were available. Staff were lovely, gave us snacks amd squash with the Room. They even do a daily weather forecast on the front door with a blackboard of activities in windermere. We felt felt extremely welcome and at home. The staff even helped us extend our stay and offered a discount for next time were here. 10/10
Water pressure was a tad weak, however thats more than understandable considering every hotel is the same, and it helps the environment 🤷🏻♀️
We had a great stay. The attention to detail throughout the room was very good, and the decoration was very nice and well thought out. Everything was spotless and felt very fresh and comfortable. The TV had Netflix, which was a great bonus. Steve and Vicky were very friendly and welcoming. They made sure we were comfortable and kept checking that everything was okay, letting us know we could ask for anything we needed. The room also had a handy little fridge, and we loved the QR codes provided with information about nearby restaurants and local attractions. At night it was extremely quiet, which made for a very relaxing and restful stay. A very good experience. We would definitely stay again and strongly recommend it to anyone visiting the area.
Location - ideally situated between Windermere and Bowness so both were within comfortable walking distance. Room was tastefully decorated / furnished and very comfortable. Very well stocked hospitality tray with plenty of tea and coffee (including ground coffee and a cafetière), orange squash and some biscuits and flapjacks. There was also a small cooler in the room big enough for a bottle of wine or bottles of water, plus another fridge in the entrance hall if more space was needed. Lots of lovely little touches, like a selection of books on the bedside table, a blackboard in the entrance hall with suggestions of places to eat, local attractions and walking routes to try and even a print out of the day’s BBC weather forecast next to the front door! We didn’t meet the hosts Steve and Vicky but were given plenty of information about check-in, collecting keys etc and they checked in with us via text during our stay to make sure we were happy with everything. Really enjoyed our couple of nights stay and will definitely be back!
Great location not far from Windermere station and bus stops. Met Steve the host on arrival, he was very helpful and text to make sure I’d found the bus stop, room was nice and comfortable.
Very welcoming. Wand warm.
Comfortable beds, relaxing decorations and aesthetic. Great location - a short walk (~10 minutes) to both Windermere and Bowness-on-Windermere.
非常棒的房子,入住体验很好
Such an excellent stay, beautiful room, really friendly and helpful owners. Thank you.
Great location, cozy room with a comfy bed, would absolutely come back again!
Nothing :)
Communication from the host was excellent from start to finish. The thoughtful treats left in the room added a really personal touch and made me feel very welcome. The entrance area was full of helpful leaflets with things to do, and the lovely blackboard highlighting Lake District hikes, towns, and places to visit was a great addition. The property was clean, and the location was superb, with plenty of parking available. I briefly met the host, who was very friendly and welcoming. I would definitely stay here again. Interior of the room was lovely with photos of the Lakes … cute books to read also in the room
Would be nice if check out was at least 11
We did not opt for the breakfast. The information displayed gave us a very good idea on planning the trip. The house is ideally located between Windermere railway station and Bowness on Winderemere. This property is an excellent choice for couple who travel by public transport. The best part is the Check in is from 11AM and check out by 10 AM gives you exactly sufficient time to explore the place without having to carry your luggage,
The bed was very comfortable, bathroom spotless and the communication from Steve and Victoria was great throughout the stay :)

地理位置十分便利 走到湖边码头15分钟路程 住处闹中取静 停车就在路边 及其方便 房间布置温馨有格调 看得出房东花了心思 就是三人间略微拥挤了些
Very easy to find equidistant from Windermere and Bowness (best of both). Very friendly owners, great assuring communications via text and emails. We didn't need anything but 2nd guess from the Comms that nothing would have been a problem if asked. Great room and Lakes information.
Can't think of anything.
Easy to find, plenty of parking, all the facilities we needed for a little break (mini fridge, hairdryer, iron/ironing board, kettle, tea/coffee/milk, tv with Netflix etc.). Perfect sized room, lovely decor, great location and within walking distance from restaurants and pubs. (Photo taken from a video I took hence the awful quality but we stayed in room 1 😊)
Nothing
The location was excellent. Room was comfortable and clean. Thoughtful little gestures from the owners, like homemade treats in the room and squash. Even the blackboard in the entrance with little recommendations of places to eat, walks etc. Free parking on the road outside is great!
Nothing.
The room is beautifully decorated and the host provided many tea and coffee, and the oatmeal cake was delicious. The best thing is that the host pleasantly accommodates to our every needs, and even let us keep the room for a few hours until our train schedule. Overall, it was a 10/10 experience, I would give it 11 if I could.
Fantastic hosts, close to town and the lakes and was very central to all the hikes we wanted to do.
Not a single thing. Absolutely great property and would be more than happy to stay here again.
Very convenient place to stay as it’s only a very short walk into Windermere town centre and only a 10 minute car journey to Ambleside, there’s a chalk board when you walk in that has a variety of places nearby to visit and also couple of numbers for local taxis, uber also works around here too.
Good communication from the owners about self check in etc. messaged us when we arrived to check all was ok. Beds were clean and comfy. Plenty of complimentary tea and coffee. Managed to car outside the property ok.
The room was a little chilly when we first arrived. We struggled to turn the radiator on which was turned to low but the owner popped up to sort that for us with no problem. The room wasn’t as clean would have expected it to be with cobwebs and dusty corners. We seemed to run out of hot water in the morning so only one of us could have a bath/shower. It was a bit out of the way of the town centre but we were just there for a friend’s wedding so that wasn’t an issue.
It’s really good mattresses. The best in London, and we even wanted to buy it.
Cosy room clean great location.
Great location
Easy self checkin. Prompt instructions. Nicely decorated room, clean and warm. Good location. Good value. What more can you ask for when visiting Lakes. This property comes recommended.
Nothing.
The location was ideal for both Windermere and Bowness
Just felt the room we were in was cold
It was our second visit. We absolutely love it, very clean and very beautiful. We love the extra biscuits and home made goodies. We will only ever come here when we come back. Thank you
Clean tidy quiet central
Nothing all good
Lots of information available and hosts contacting us regularly to check we were ok
Fridge in one of the rooms not working, bed not very comfortable
Friendly staff, perfect location and great room with a comfortable bed!
Stunning accomodation! Beautifully designed, very welcoming feel. Fabulous communication from hosts. Great location!! Just beautiful
