The check in was very smooth and staff were very helpful and friendly. I appreciate that they told us up front that they are a bit under-staffed and asked us to use the bell to call for attention. It made it easier to ask for assistance.
The lounges below were very nice and comfortable too. The rooms were very nice too and bathroom was clean and spacious so we could put our things on the countertops. I also liked the welcome cookies and teas.
Breakfast was also very nice with a beautiful view from the window. Would definitely like to come back!

I attended an afternoon tea birthday party and from the moment we walked in, the service was exceptional, friendly, down to earth and that was every single staff member. The grounds are beautiful and well worth exploring. I decided to stay the night rather than a long drive home in the evening and again, the room was perfectly presented with everything that I needed plus more. Cleanliness was superb and the view from the room was wonderful. Excellent shower.

Had a weekend here.
Had a weekend here. Could have spent longer, mainly because I got caught in Storm Bert which wiped out a day when all routes out of Bowness were blocked. However there are plenty of pubs, bars, restaurants shops to visit in the town. Luckily the electric hire boats were running on the Sunday so took the opportunity to spend an hour on the lake which was great fun. The open top bus in November is something else! Favourite bar was bodega. Favourite eatery was magic roundabout. Favourite modern pub was Angel Inn. Favourite old school pub was Hole in t Wall. Favourite gift shop was the Lake Information Centre

Charming old world town with spectacular views of lake Windermere. Many options for places to stay mostly only a few minute's walk from the shops , restaurants , pubs and bars with the boat piers easily accessible and well organised. Beatrix Potter museum definitely worth a visit. Boat trips were great for exploring other parts of the lake including Lakeside and Ambleside at bottom and top ends. Spent a happy three nights in Bowness and wouldn't hesitate to visit again some day.

I have been visiting it for 30 years it's like my second home. I always try new restaurants and pubs. I love bus hopping as my mobility is not good. The 508 over Kirkstone pass is my favourite. I found a little Italian restaurant in Windermere call San Pietro the staff and food were excellent. Can't believe I haven't spotted it before. We be back in a few months time.

We hired an electric boat for a day which was great fun.
Also walked up to Brant Fell. A short but very steep hike. Amazing views over the lake and towards the mountains.
