We had a wonderful three day break at this lovely guest house for Valentines. Our room had fabulous views of the lake and the staff were very friendly. Nothing was too much trouble. Breakfast was delicious and again we had great views from the dining room. From the moment we arrived we did not need our car. You are moments... More

I booked this as a birthday treat - to have a bit of 5 star luxury. Having treated ourselves to 5 star before and knowing what to expect from such a high rating, I was really looking forward to it. I consider my reviews to be very fair and so I am going to be absolutely honest and put 'facts'... More

we booked this break last minute for and were very happy with what we found when we arrived. The hotel was in a perfect central location, which meant that when we were going out for walks, or shopping, or for dinner at restaurants in the evening, we could walk everywhere. Danny at the hotel was really helpful, telling us where... More

We stayed at this lovely Hotel (more a guest house really), perfectly located for the restaurants and local bars, the staff was very friendly and accomodating, the breakfast was very nice clean and great service, this was our 2nd visit here and we would highly recommend this Hotel. I think the star rating maybe a little exagerated but never the... More

We stayed for three nights recently in December and had a lovely time. This B&B is ideally situated for shops, bars restaurants and the Lake, and is beautifully decorated everywhere we saw. We have stayed in several establishments in Bowness and this is the best so far, excellent breakfast, coffee available in the lounge, sherry in the room, and a... More

The room we booked was a 5 star AA B$B with room overlooking the lake, pool and spa with internet. Although the location of this hotel is perfect, the overall aspec tof the place is tired. The lounge is extremely unwelcoming with dirty looking sofas with only a 5 bar electric fire, no sign of any bar and even if... More

Dear Sir or Madam, I am sorry you were disappointed with several aspects of your stay with us and I will attempt to address some of your issues. I must point out that we are an AA 5 Star accredited Guest House and not Hotel. I believe the prices we charge make it blindingly obvious we are not a Hotel... More
