We’ve been here twice now (this is our second year) and I don’t really think there’s anywhere else I’d stay. It’s located perfectly between Windermere (for the station) and Bowness and the lake if you want to have a quick nip down. Also well connected to the buses if you want to explore more and didn’t drive down.
The staff are incredible - you’re really taken care of well - check in is later, but they’ll gladly keep your bags and take them up to your room if you arrive earlier by train, and equally they’ll keep some of your bags if your train is later than check out. They’re also always super friendly and ready to help you out whenever you need.
Breakfast - everything is good. Everything. Is. Good. I usually go for the pancakes or the eggs on the muffins with the salmon, but you can’t go wrong with anything they have. Granted, I haven’t had the vegan breakfast, but if the vegetarian is anything to go by you’ll be happy.
Stay here - but leave me a spot, I need to come back again. Deal? Deal.
