Wonderful big room. So cozy. We enjoyed the comfortable bed and little balcony overlooking the garden. It was very quiet and the breakfast was delicious and the room had lovely views of the garden. Easily walkable to town.

Lovely comfortable place to stay with very attentive staff. Great location, only a few mins walk to shops, pubs and the lake.
I had such a delightful stay! The room was spacious and clean, with a breathtaking view that added to the enjoyment. The staff were incredibly friendly, making me feel right at home. I particularly appreciated the breakfast menu, which featured delicious vegan options. We made sure to reserve a table every morning. All in all, it was a truly fantastic experience!
Everything was perfect! The staff are all lovely and helpful. The room was spotless and very comfortable and the breakfast excellent. We will definitely go there again.
A very appealing hotel.Tastefully traditional.
Gardens beautifully laid out;so many private areas to relax in.
Range of apartments in modern style too.
I had enjoyable stay in Junior Suite.
Dining room really attractive with very pleasing views .
Always a great relief in Bowness to have a place with great parking!!.
MINUS-The cupboard with the clothes rail is no substitute for a proper wardrobe as it is cold and musty.
The accommodation was very good.
The rooms were like small apartments in the grounds of the property & were spacious with a seating area & a balcony overlooking the gardens & the bathroom was clean & well kept.
Nice & quiet position.
Parking for each room directly outside each room.
The signage for the hotel could be a little better as it is only pointing one way so we drove past & had to turn around & go back.
Breakfasts were really good.
Lots of choice with cereals, fruit etc & lots of choice for cooked food which was delicious.
It is literally 2 minutes walk to the lake side & boats & town centre with lots of cafes & restaurants.
Lovely place to stay, friendly staff and great location.

The room was a disappointment. I was expecting a 4 star hotel. The room was barely 3 and the bathroom about 2. A very dated hotel that was more of a motel. Breakfast was ok but not great. Would not stay again.
Lovely breakfast,great staff and gorgeous gardens. Stayed in the house which is a Edwardian property which could do with a facelift but it was cosy and warm with everything we needed
