The Dozy Deer, hotel in Windermere

The Dozy Deer - a newly renovated guest house - is just a short walk from Windermere centre. The rooms feature en suite bathrooms. No breakfast included.

We liked that there was very easy instructions on how to use the keys, when the dining area was available and check in and out times. It was also really good that Beth came straight back to us with any queries.

    Jerichos Boutique is a beautifully decorated and furnished house. It is spotlessly clean and the bed was really comfy, free on site parking is a bonus and is in a nice quiet street. Great location- only a 2 minute walk to Windermere Train station, shops, pubs and restaurants. The hosts were very friendly and helpful and served a great breakfast. It is a 20-30 min walk down to Bowness lake and shops. Had a lovely 2 night stay. I Would definately recommend without hesitation.

    location is great. walking distance to both Windermere and Bowness. Boutique property and the room for three was really spacious and not a bed adjusted very clean and stocked with all essentials. The name 'guest house' is a misnomer more like a boutique 4 star property. the breakfast was prepared fresh and to your needs Philips and Trevor who own and run this are great hosts . They welcome you and show you around and make you feel at home i also particularly liked the fragrance of the handwash 😊
