Fabulous stay
On arrival we were greeted by the friendly hostess with the offer of a hot drink and a nice chat. Our room was lovely, clean and very comfortable with refreshments and toiletries provided, also a lovely hot shower. The breakfast was amazing, couldn't be better, with a lovely cheerful lady serving who couldn't do enough for you. Would recommend.

Lovely Hotel
Lovely hotel, friendly staff and yummy food. We stayed in the Jungle Room on the ground floor where breakfast is served in your room which suited us well. The shutters on the windows do let in light, but didn't bother us with being almost winter, also as the room is next to the kitchen and front door you do get noise at breakfast but not till around 8am, but again didn't bother us as we were up anyway. Very accommodating to my vegan diet. Bed was a bit creaky but super comfy and didnt effect our sleep. Great location right between Bowness and Windermere, set away from the busy road on a quiet side road. Free parking on the car park, but be warned, it's very tight, not advisable if you have a huge car. However there is parking available on the road.
