Nice & cozy place with warm & friendly staff that provides respite from the otherwise cold weather! Room is clean & location is close to supermarkets & restaurants. Although the building was built in 1882, the room amenities are quite modern.

Everything about this property was amazing for me and my partner. Our puppy came to and she loved it. The hot tub was great and the location was so quiet despite being on a main road.

    We stayed in one of the new outside cabins with hot tub. This is the 5th stay over the years and not much has changed other than some new accommodation blocks. The new cabins are lovely, over looking farm fields and we saw lots of wildlife including a barn owl. The food is excellent and well priced. Really good choice and seasonal ingredients. Don't expect a plush 4* hotel. Damson Dene is not so refined but an excellent base in the Lake District far enough away from the hustle and bustle.

    Location was excellent for Bowness and only a short walk to Windermere. A number of great restaurants within 5 mins walk. Parking was good, the apartment was excellent throughout, and the passcode entry was great, much better than carrying keys around. This is by far the best accommodation we’ve stayed in at Bowness which is our favourite location in the lakes, already looking to rebook this apartment.

    Great location and fantastic views - we stayed there only to break our journey to Scotland but we enjoyed it so much that we almost wanted to stay there for the rest of the holiday. We have been to the lakes many times and always enjoyed our times there, but this time was exceptional. You can book a private boat trip from the hotel so you don’t really need to leave the hotel to enjoy the entire Windermere experience.

    Everything about this stay was perfect for our family. The accommodation was in a fantastic location in the town, with parking included. The host was extraordinarily helpful and kind, and the home had so many beautiful details in every room that truly made our stay. We all really looked forward to coming back to the house in the evening, a testament to the cosy, spacious nature of the space. Overall, this house was the perfect base for our trip and we could not recommend it more highly!

    This was by far the best holiday accommodation I have ever stayed in, I wish we had stayed longer. The place itself is in a fantastic location just up the hill from the lake and all the shops and with free parking that in itself makes it a great place to stay. However, the host and property are so fantastic it would not have mattered if it was in the middle of nowhere. I cannot wait to visit again.
