Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers incredible rooms with four-poster beds and beautiful garden views. The facilities are top-notch, but the lack of some amenities is a drawback. The service is excellent, but prices may not suit everyone's budget.
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel! The room had a lovely garden view and great facilities, including a comfortable 4 poster bed. The service was impeccable with fantastic dry cleaning and housekeeping services. The location was perfect, within walking distance of charming restaurants and quite close to Windermere railway station. The homemade dining experience was delightful, especially the homemade items. Overall, a fantastic place to stay.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The rooms were cozy, and the staff was attentive. However, the dining experience left a bit to be desired with limited breakfast options. On the bright side, the location was perfect, and the price was reasonable.
