Just returned from a stay at the Claremont where we were made to feel welcome as soon as we arrived. We were welcomed on arrival with a cuppa from Alan and lots of useful advice about places to eat and interesting walks to explore before being shown to our room. The room, like the rest of the Claremont, was very clean and comfortable with excellent facilities. The full English breakfast, cooked and served by Deborah, was cooked exactly to our own requirements and was delicious which set us up nicely for a recommended for a long walk into the hills alongside Windermere. As this was our first visit to Bowness we were able to make the most of our stay as a result of the hospitality, advice and the borrowing of a pair of waterproof trousers from Alan and Deborah. We will be returning for another stay in February!

Very friendly hosts with good local knowledge. Made us feel very welcome immediately. Nice clean room with good amenities. Excellent breakfast. Will definately stay again

We agree that the reviews written pre-2010 should be ignored as these do not relate to the current owners.
We really enjoyed our stay. Our room was very clean and well presented with a comfortable bed, plenty of hot water for showers, large tea cups and sufficient space. We received a very friendly welcome and it was a pleasant suprise to be offered a cup of tea on arrival! The owners have a lot of local knowledge that they are keen to share. Breakfast was very enjoyable, well presented and tasty, also providing a vegetarian alternative. We would definitely return to this bed and breakfast.

After a 6 hour drive, we were impressed to be greeted by some tea and coffee. We stayed in the apartment that was nicely decorated and very welcoming like both Deborah and Alan.
We were asked if we needed help planning our stay, they had numbers for everything from the bike rents to the canoeing place. After a day of rock climbing and abseiling we had forgotten the Radox and were touched to see a bottle of this in the bathroom.
The Breakfast was just simply deliciously!!
Cant wait to go back.
