Rayrigg Villa Guesthouse

Amazing. Thank you.

Very convenient location and all basic facilities are in good standard

TV didn’t work, can hear everything that happens In the hotel, don’t expect a quite night of sleep, shower is tiny, and doesn’t work proper

The check in system was very unique.

Its all right expensive for what you get, plenty of shops nearby but there is no communication whatsoever. We struggled to get in, family already staying inside didn't respond when we knocked in. Some people have mentioned breakfast but we didn't get communication on that, which was confusing because we were expecting breakfast.

Issue with the TV cutting out. Unsure if the smoke alarm works in room 9 as there was no light on it and no map of escape egress route if stairs not available.

What more could you ask for than a property where the supermarket (and many eateries) are around the corner and the bus stop is opposite the front door. Rayrigg is perfectly located, with a bus every 20 mins to take you to the railway station (about a 10 minute walk) or to other towns in the District. Just note, if you are challenged by directions, Lake Windermere is in an area called Bowness, and about a 45 minute walk to Ellerthwaite Square. I had the top room, so plenty of stairs to climb, but the view was lovely and the room was extremely comfortable.

The was extremely small, it hadn’t been decorated in a long time and was very old the heating didn’t work, the room was nothing like the pictures on the site, the bathroom was so small you you had to turn sideways to get between the shower and toilet

Nice place to stay although found it difficult to locate using sat nav we had room 8 which is a lovely room located at the rear side of main building so if its raining you will get wet going to breakfast otherwise nice room although did smell a little musty

Property was clean, bathroom was too small. They allowed us luggage drop which was very helpful for us. The bus and railway station are at walkable distance. Free hot breakfast was good, will have to pay for kids breakfast. Overall we enjoyed our stay and would visit again.

Breakfast was good. Lots of parking around the area. Lots of shops and restaurants nearby. Good location.

Nice little place and good breakfast. Clean and small but fine as you are out all day.

Enjoyed our room to the most part. Bathroom was rather small but functional. We were able to bring our car into the small car park. Breakfast was disappointing. Asked for the salmon and eggs. This was done using the sheet left in the room. I have food intolerances so I crossed out the bread. My salmon and eggs came on a toasted muffin. There was very little egg and a tiny amount of salmon. I don't eat cereal or fruit so there was nothing else I could have. Never saw the owners, just the girl waiting on us. Oh, please post instructions on how to use the key boxes. I've never used one before and had no idea what to do!

The property very accessible, clean, quiet and customer service was excellent.

Our host was very accommodating upon our late arrival making us feel welcome. The breakfast was excellent!

The Guest House was functional for what we needed. The rooms and bathrooms are very small but as we were out all day and only needed a place to sleep it worked for us. Jane was very nice and accommodating.

My husband and I booked last minute for us and our 2 year old- it was great, really clean, cosy and friendly. The lady who served breakfast (I didn't get her name) was wonderful and made the stay even better. The room has everything we needed (although the ensuite looked a little tired) and the building is beautiful with original features. We would stay again- thanks!

Small but clean and nice place. Heating towel rack is excellent to efficiently dry clothes in this wet always-rainy place. Also surprised to see such a small place asking for your preferences on breakfast and providing several choices. And the lady present to you your food in the time window you select, all freshly made and hot. Better than a lot of buffet in larger hotels

Visit was mid-December. Booked this extremely last minute due to being let down elsewhere. 2 adults, 2 children under 10yrs. Room was small for 4 and ensuite shower absolutely tiny but all functional and clean. Beds very comfortable and room was warm. Excellent fresh cooked full English breakfast with plenty of choice. Really good location close to Windermere Town centre. Some free parking both on site and roadside. Check in was all done remotely- possibly due to Covid concerns but we didn't see or speak another person from arriving at 5pm to breakfast the following morning which felt a bit impersonal. Would recommend if you're looking for a good base in Windermere.

The family room was very clean which is extremely important to me. However it was so small. Included a double bed and bunkbeds a wardrobe and shower in bathroom (bathroom was the smallest i've ever experienced). We stayed 2 nights and we would have struggled any longer in such a small room. However the friendliness of the lady who ran the b&b and the cleanliness made up for the room being small. I wouldn't stay again due to the size of the room However it's a fabulous location. We stayed in room 3.
