    The manager and chef were very friendly and helpful. The room was clean and the breakfast was nice. Great location - right near Beatrix Potter's estate, but also quiet and away from the busy tourist towns.

    Sawrey House is in the most gorgeous quiet location out of Windermere. It has a beautiful garden which can be enjoyed from the courtyard or the various seating areas inside. There’s wonderful food options- I had the afternoon tea and a charcuterie...
