A perfect hotel to stay while visiting the Lake district. Location of the hotel is in the centre of town.

I visit Windermere on a regular basis to dance the Argentine Tango at the Ladyholme Centre not far from the town itself. While there i have stayed in a variety of accommodation and have always had a good experience. The distance between Windermere and Bowness is only a walk of around 20 minutes. Buses are frequent within the area. There are plenty of cafes and restaurants in and around the town to choose from and it is a safe place for Solo travellers to explore.

Fantastic stay as a last minute decision for our family of 5 and the dog. Friendly welcome and freshly cleaned pod on arrival. Spacious enough for us all - even my 6ft4 husband slept well. Pods heated up quickly and held the heat nicely through the night. Toilets and showers were clean and had hooks on the doors for keeping clothes dry etc. We didn’t use the kitchen area but it was clean and spacious. Games room had plenty of seating and a table tennis table but no rackets or ball unfortunately. The campfire area was loved by our children in the evening. Enough parking space and close to lots of local walks and experiences. There were bikes on site that could be hired which would be a great family activity but I’m not sure on the pricing.

Good walks to Wray Castle and Claife Viewing Station overlooking Windermere. Unfortunately Wray Castle was shut for renovation during our visit (Nov 2025)m but the cafe here was open for business and doing a roaring trade. Location is handy for Hill Top (Beatrix Potter) and Hawkshead where there are ample places to eat.

Pretty hamlet with 2 excellent pubs serving great food. Easy walking area from the hamlet and access to more challenging walking not far away. Away from the tourist traps of the Lake District. Would recommend eating at The Hare and Hounds for upmarket gastro pub food. The Masons Arms also serves good pub food. The Punchbowl at Crosthwaite is a 10 min drive away and is a very good restaurant
