It’s a lovely place. The view was spectacular! The room is so pretty and the bedding is of very high quality. Staff is most helpful. It was raining when we arrived by a car, one of the staff member was standing in the car park with an umbrella - so considerate. Breakfast was delicious. We didn’t want to leave. Highly recommended. Whatever you see, it’s a picture - indoor and outdoor. Super experience.

The property was beautiful in a reserved old building style. The breakfast room/dining room was gorgeous and the furnishings were stunning. Staff were lovely. It was just a few hundred metres to the Windermere strip shops, had private off road parking and the £3pp each way bus to Bowness where the lake cruises leave from was only a couple of hundred metres away. Breakfast was great and the staff very helpful with the luggage.

The location was perfect for our stop-over, enroute from Germany, where we live, to visit family in Scotland. Less than 10 minutes drive from the M6. The staff were welcoming... before dinner, we enjoyed an aperitif sitting by a lovely open fire. For dinner we enjoyed delicious roast beef & yorkshire pudding! Breakfast was perfect, served by a very nice, friendly, local lady. The Inn has lots of traditional character which we love.

The attention to detail and pure luxury. As we approached the gate and the gatekeeper welcomed us by name and wished us a happy anniversary. It’s these little things that make this place 5 star.
