Nice property for a quiet relaxing break. Very good breakfast and the pub on site was excellent. However we booked a room with a lake view and balcony but were given a very inferior small room overlooking the back of the hotel. We pointed out that this was not as booked and were told there was no room available. We were shown to another larger room with no balcony. We checked both Expedia and the hotels own website and there was still a room of the type booked available. Back to reception armed with the information and within an hour a room was found by the manager. A very frustrating check-in for an otherwise nice stay.

lovely room but water became cold when showering, really enjoyed the pool w/ beautiful view. The breakfast was wonderful. Found the fish n chips to be quite mediocre for expensive price paid. Batter too thick and bland and chips mediocre. Patio a lovely area to sit but in my opinion was ruined by the loud music. Would have preferred to have the tranquility of space to enjoy view. Beautiful place.

Everything about our experience at Windermere House was fantastic! The staff were friendly and kind, the room was clean and well maintained, the grounds were beautiful, and the food was fantastic! We spent 2 nights there, and it was not busy at all, which was lovely. There is so much to do outside as well. We utilized the spa and were thrilled with our couples massage (shoutout to Julie and Jason!). The Rosseau was an incredible meal (shoutout to Andy!). The only tiny recommendation I'd make is to install ceiling fans in the gym, cause it was hot. I very rarely return to a place more than once, but we will definately be back.

Enjoyed our stay after a rocky start at check-in. Unfortunately during a very heavy rainstorm there was no covered area to unload bags at the lobby entrance..we got soaked. The walk was difficult to navigate with an uneven surface. Otherwise the facility is beautiful, staff great, view amazing. The breakfast is also excellent! Thanks for a lovely stay ..

We arrived at the property on Friday, and ate dinner at the pub that night. The food was not very good and the server was not attentive at all, even tho we sat beside the servers station. What we did not know, was that there was a wedding at the location on Saturday night. When we got back from having dinner elsewhere, we did not find any parking. When I went to ask where I could park, the person at the desk told us that everyone at the wedding was a guest at the hotel. I found that very hard to believe and said so. Our room was 2 floors above the room where the reception was held. The music started at about 9pm. Since this property is a wood structure, the sound insulation is non existent. It was almost like we were in the room where the reception was. The music continued and the base was incredibly loud. I called to the front desk for the first time, at around 11:30, asking if they could get the music turned down as there are noise laws. It did not happen. I called again to the desk just after midnight as were not able to sleep at all. I was told again that they would ask to turn down the music again... but again, it did not happen. I called again to the desk at 12:35am with the same question as we were still not able to sleep. I was then told that the music would stop at 1am. I stated that we had paid alot of money for the weekend stay, and we deserved some peace. We voiced our complaints to the manager to complain in the morning. We were NOT happy at all
