We recently had the pleasure of staying at Burnhow Garden Hotel, and it exceeded our expectations in so many ways. The hotel’s charming garden setting made for a tranquil and relaxing stay, but what really stood out was the exceptional breakfast experience.
Rooms:
Our room was spacious, clean, and well-appointed, offering a lovely blend of comfort and charm. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and the thoughtful amenities, including tea and coffee facilities, fresh towels, and toiletries, made our stay even more enjoyable.
Service:
The staff were friendly, welcoming, and always willing to assist. From check-in to check-out, the service was impeccable. They were happy to offer local tips, which really enhanced our visit to Bowness on Windermere.
Location:
The hotel is ideally located just a short walk from the center of Bowness and the shores of Lake Windermere. Despite being so close to local attractions, it maintains a peaceful and secluded atmosphere, perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring.
Breakfast:
The highlight of our stay was the incredible breakfast each morning! The selection was impressive, ranging from hearty full English options to lighter choices like fresh fruit and cereals. Every dish was prepared to perfection, using fresh, high-quality ingredients. The cooked breakfast in particular was outstanding – eggs were done just right, the bacon and sausages were delicious, and everything was served piping hot. It was clear that a lot of care and attention went into every meal. We looked forward to breakfast every morning – it truly set the tone for the day!
Overall, Burnhow Garden Hotel is a gem in the heart of the Lake District. If you're looking for a peaceful retreat with excellent service and a standout breakfast, this is the place to stay. We left feeling thoroughly relaxed and well-fed.

Our room was great.
Clean and the decor was class throughout the hotel.
Friendly staff nothing was to much trouble.
The food was excellent.
Just one minor criticism the plates could do with being hot as food went cold quickly.
Would definitely have a return visit.

Such a lovely village. Two pubs serving local beer.
Such a lovely village. Two pubs serving local beer. It was quiet, away from the hustle and bustle of Ambleside and Windermere. Walking distance from Hawkshead (20-30min walk) and similar distance from the ferry over to Windermere. I 100% want to return.

Perfect location to recharge and get away from the busy lives we all have. Peace and tranquillity, was simply amazing.
On days when you want to be looked after the hotel is next door, it's absolutely stunning, real fires, wonderful friendly staff and luxurious.

Location is good for Western side of Lake District as it is on west side of Windermere - access to Hawkshead and Coniston is good and also Grasmere and westwards. I chose this location for access to Tarn Hows.
Anyone wanting to visit Grizedale and Duddon Valley and Langdale will suit this location - Hardknott Pass and Wrynose Pass.
For Windermere/Ambleside/Keswick and North Lakes, stay on the eastern side of Windermere where the road is also faster and stunning scenery to Keswick.

Near Sawrey is a pretty village whose main draw is linked to Beatrix Potter. It is a must do for any fan of this much loved author but once visited, nearby Hawkshead offers more facilities in a cosy setting.
Beautiful stunning hotel , amazing surroundings, beautifully decorated, both lounges had open fires , and our room had gorgeous views over the lake and hills. The dining room also had amazing views
Angela, Caroline and all the staff couldn’t have been more lovely and welcoming. Very attentive and informative and couldn’t do enough for us
Thank you all for the most wonderful stay , we would love to come back and stay again !
Great location in Near Sawrey, with plenty of things to do nearby but far enough away from the busiest areas of Windermere. Near Sawrey is also nice itself, with a pleasant pub and a children's playground, as well as a nice short walk to Moss Eccles Tarn straight out of the door.
The apartment was nice, with ample parking, a nice living room and black-out blinds making for a good night's sleep
Sawrey House Hotel is in a quiet little village, with beautiful views down to Esthwaite Water. The room had a 4-poster bed, en-suite and a spa bath, with complimentary toiletries and drinks. Staff were friendly and helpful. Choices of breakfast which we thoroughly enjoyed.
It's a lovely little studio that has everything you need. It is very clean and nicely renovated. The area is beautiful, you can walk down to the lake through private hotel land.
