May 2013. We stayed seven nights in this super little B&B hotel. On arrival we were welcomed by Heather who quickly produced a large pot of tea and cake whilst Nigel carried our baggage upstairs to our room on the first floor. Heather was very friendly and helpful in advising us where to find local places to eat in the... More

Me and my partner stayed at Chestnuts in July 2012 (ive only just got round to reviewing). The hotel is well positioned and comfortable walking distance from Bowness which was the main reason for us selecting it.. I would say the walk is around 10 mins to Bowness, but it is along the main road down to the water and... More

We stayed here over the may bank holiday having never visited the lake district before. Location was a short walk into bowness and windermere and a short drive to hawkshead and wray castle. The service we had was very good, although I found the host a bit stressed albeit friendly over breakfast. Check out was 10.30am which was a little... More

Parking was easy and we were welcomed by Heather who offered us a Tea or Coffee which I thought was a nice touch after our journey. The walk into Bowness is around 10 mins at... More

Cake and tea on arrival, what a lovely touch.Room spotless.lot of choice in the area for the money why bother with anything else.There is a small car park for guests but on road parking no problem.We were suprised to see only one table left at breakfast considering it only early march showed its popularity.

I'm a regular visitor to the Lakes and these days always stay at this lovely guest house, Heather and Nigel are very welcoming and it's easy walking distance to both Bowness and Windermere, on a quiet road away from the traffic noise. Rooms cosily decorated, with all the facilities you expect these days and spotlessly clean, and the beds are... More
