Is a cosy stay. Was a bit outdated but staff were excellent and welcoming and beds were comfy and clean. Full cooked breakfast and very accomadating for different foods. Sad to hear they had are retiring and closing. Tip if it reopens is the car park oppoaite does early bird parking for £1 if you get a ticked after 8pm and is valid all day.

Everything was good except one thing. The room key was not working so we could not lock the door. However, we felt the property was secure so we did not worry much about it. we were only staying for one night. If we had to stay long this would be a concern.

As described on website
You get what you pay for and description was accurate. Basic accommodation but good enough for one night. Also good that they offer family room and 1 night stay. Free parking on road was full but one road down we found space. Just a few mins walk away

Not worth the price.
This was going to be the nicer BnB on my vacation, it was not a good experience. The hosts were nice, but basically MIA. The only way to get thier attention is to ring the door bell. Be prepared for crazy stairs. My room was two flights up and the second set was extremely steep. I couldn't get my luggage up the stairs and the hosts wouldn't take it upstairs for me so I had to leave it downstairs. The bathroom was on the other side of the hall, which is not very comfortable and not convenient at all. (I would expect this from a hostel, not a BnB.) Probably just an issue in my room, but the door would not open easily, it would get stuck on the carpet every time. Expect thin walls, I could very clearly hear the guests in the room nextdoor.

Stayed here for 4 nights. The stay and experience surpassed all expectations! We stayed in the family room with a bathroom only for our use located opposite the room (which was not an issue at all). We had a delicious full (vegetarian) breakfast each morning that was accompanied with friendly conversations with the hosts, who made a clear effort to entertain and attend to all of their guests. I did say I would give a special shout out to the "lovely ginger Northern Irish lass", aka Gilly, who was a barrel of laughs and made the most perfect fried eggs every morning! On top of all of this, there was an extra and unexpected surprise for each room on Valentine's day, with a gift of chocolates, drinks and candles. I honestly could not recommend this place enough. Thank you so much for a delightful stay.

Above average guest house. Liked breakfast room and service, also sugar served properly instead of those awful motorway service area packets! Gripes - room door doesnt open properly - apparently blamed on new carpet!. Also dingy room lighting.

Overnight stay
Very friendly welcoming hosts, delicious breakfast. Nice room. I wasn’t aware that free parking wasn’t available before arriving. So had to fork out £11 for overnight parking which wasn’t ideal. The guest house is located close to town, and I was in a front downstairs room, so sadly was kept up late by yobs coming out of the pubs. Perhaps this was not the norm for Windermere, but it was quite the peaceful/relaxing night I had hoped for?

Nice place to stay in
Adv: 1.The hosts welcomed me warmly, and showed me around the place. 2.The breakfast is really nice, I've ordered full English breakfast, and some others ordered waffle with yogurt which looks good as well. They also provide nice loose tea, coffee, orange juice, ice tea, milk and cereals 3.Room is clean and with a good view. I was living on the third floor and there's a large window through which I can overlook the neighbors. Bed is cozy and the bathroom is clean. Can improve: 1. I hope the host can notice the male guests to mind their behavior when using the shared bathroom. When I arrived and stepped upstairs and passed through the shared bathroom, I heard a man peeing there with the door opening. 2. The sound proofing is not very good, I can clearly hear people talking in the corridor and in their room in midnight. 3. There's something wrong with the water pressure of the shower as there's little water flow which tool me much longer time to wash my hair and body. Also would suggest people bringing their own hairdryer as the one provided is too hot.
