The staff were very friendly and couldn't do enough for us. They made us feel at home from the moment we arrived. This made the short break we had even more enjoyable. The breakfasts were out of this world and once again the staff were incredibly accommodating without being intrusive and made our stay a very memorable one for all the rights reasons.

Very comfortable flat with all the comforts of home. John was great - he provided us with most of the info we needed when we got there, and was responsive to questions. The place is close to everything in Windermere, including the bus that goes to the other towns. I would stay here again any time.

    The staff were really nice. Vika, one of the hotel managers, is so friendly and really goes out of her way to make sure you have everything you need. The pub is lovely, great food and ale. We loved the full English breakfast. Staff and facilities were very baby friendly, which made our lives easy with a little one. Great hiking options from the pub and hawkeshead is a nice place to stay.
