On first seeing the romantic room we did think it was small but the balcony made up for that. They have made the most of the space, not much wardrobe space for long items but there are plenty of hooks up in room and bathroom so hung dresses on there so wasn't a problem. Breakfast was lovely freshly cooked to order and Ian was very friendly and pleasant. Idealy placed for 10 mins walk into Bowness or Windermere. We had a pleasant stay and wouldn't hesitate to stay again.
