This is a quaint hotel that is nicely decorated. Unfortunately, despite asking for quiet rooms, we were given rooms in the main hallway where everyone has to pass by to get in and out of the hotel and get to and from breakfast. The hotel staff also use the foyer right across from these rooms to collect all of the used items from rooms they are cleaning so it was extremely noisy, especially in the morning. The staff are completely oblivious to this. Breakfast wasn't memorable and when they're fully booked, it's almost impossible to move around the dining room.

This is a lovely, quiet hotel on Lake Windermere. Highlights were the freshly cooked breakfast, quiet grounds, and friendly staff throughout our 3 night stay. We also very much enjoyed eating dinner in the hotel one evening, where the food was of high quality. Some areas perhaps would have benefitted from more attention based on the price we paid and the high standard of the other reviews on Expedia. These were: The road junction into the property is challenging at best and dangerous at worst (we witnessed a near miss on one occasion). Would suggest at the very least a mirror is installed so you can see traffic coming from the right There is no fridge in the room which, if you’re going for walks, is a little annoying if you want to be able to take a chilled drink out with you. There are no additional facilities such as a gym or spa. We knew that when we booked it of course, but it’s still worth mentioning given the price.

Nice hotel, unsure about 4 stars though.

Nice hotel, lovely grounds. Staff were super friendly and helpful and quickly solved an issue that we had. Restaurant and bar areas really nice and clean. Uncomfortable bed and pillows. Linen not great. Walls are thin, can hear everyone and everything outside. Emergency lighting outside ‘garden rooms’ stays on all night making it look like it’s daylight all night long. Bar prices and food a little too expensive.
