"Our second visit to Bowness guest house as we were so impressed the first time. The first floor room was perfect and the bed was so comfortable we wished we were staying longer. Great location for Bowness and beyond, plus restaurants and bars within a 5-10min walk.

"A lovely apartment right in the centre of Bowness-On-Windermere. The accommodation was spotless, cleaning spray, washing up liquid and cloths were provided.
The bed was lovely and comfortable.
People have mentioned the stairs up to the apartment. They caused us no problem but if people have mobility problems I can understand they might be a problem.
If we return to the area we would stay here again. I am glad I didn’t book somewhere in Windermere, this was five minute walk to the lake. "

"A really great stay in a very nice room. The staff seemed nice enough, the wifi speed was incredible and the hotel also has a decent (free) car park for guests. Very reasonable price and super modern room. Couldn't fault it."

"Fabulous few days here. We stayed in a four poster suite with lake view and it was perfect.
The room was spacious with a seating area to view the lake and all the activity on it. The bathroom was great, with the choice of a standing free bath and a modern shower with excellent rain water experience. The bed was extra large and so comfortable with soft pillows and duvet. Plenty of tea, coffee and Kendal mint cake to enjoy a cuppa in the room.
The bar and restaurant were excellent. Happy with the choices for the breakfast buffet. We ate in the restaurant each evening and was really happy with the quality and presentation of the food - thanks for good chefs! For a light meal, we recommend the halloumi chips and the bbq sticky chicken.
All the hardworking staff we met from cleaners, bar, waiting, reception were very friendly and made you feel welcome. All were great ambassadors for the hotel!
Would recommend to anyone; and we will return ourselves!"
"Even though this was only an overnight stay before travelling to a cottage in Keswick, it turned out to be our favourite place visited in a long time. The hotel is perfectly positioned on the main road only 4 minutes away from the town centre, and 15 minutes walk to Bowness. On approaching the check in desk, we were met by Karl, who signed us in and showed us to our rooms- we had requested to have the rooms together as our son is Autistic and we weren't disappointed xx the rooms themselves were lovely and clean, spacious and had the comfiest of beds. Breakfast next morning was delicious and free!! No added charge and it certainly filled us up. This wonderful establishment is run by three members of staff who couldn't be more friendly, professional and accommodating xx We will be back and will stay longer next time xx thank you so much xx"
