Windermere Homestays

I saw this B&B on Ctrip. I booked it decisively because the recommendation ranks among the top three in the Lake District. After I checked in, I found it was worthy of the name. It’s only 10 minutes away from Windermere Lake and it can provide a swimming pool, but it’s more than a mile away from the room. There are plenty of breakfasts to choose from, and I recommend the first English breakfast, very authentic! There are free parking spaces. The room is quite clean and the layout is very careful. It can be seen that the owner of the house has spent a lot of attention on the details. My boyfriend and I think this is the best after staying in four stores in the UK. It's the little things that count! The owner of the house, John, is very enthusiastic. He will recommend travel routes and speak some Chinese. I would recommend this store if I have friends who travel to the Lake District~

Stayed at the Jericho for 3 nights, rooms absolutely stunning, very clean. Good Location ( little noise from the cash & carry up the road) rooms are warm , but can’t complain as there is a fan provided. ( quiet fan) Steve & Hayley are excellent hosts , breakfast was amazing & very generous😁 Only thing I’d like to mention is that the restaurants stopped taking food orders from 9.o’clock , not known this we hadn’t eaten on the first night of our stay( although we did see a Kabab shop). Fab pubs we visited & very friendly was The Queens , The Crafty Baa ( very interesting, in a good way) Boot Trip , Brown Sugar ( food lovely & lovely atmosphere) few places down by the promenade . Loved are stay at Lake Windermere.

We have just returned from a 2 night stay at The Beaumont House in Windermere. This is an excellent property and very convenient to Windermere centre with a 5 minute walk to restaurants, coffee bars and shops. Denise and Sandra were very efficient, pleasant and helpful. The property is extremely clean and in a quiet area. The bedroom we stayed in, which was a Superior Double room, was large and comfortable. There was a good choice at breakfast which was very tasty. Highly recommended.

There is free parking space, the bedding is very comfortable, and there is heating at night. The landlord is very nice. The breakfast was superb. It was the best I have had during my trip to the UK. The hotel is located between Windermere and Bowness, about 10 minutes walk from the two towns, which is very convenient. highly recommended!

This hotel is great. The location is very convenient, just a minute walk from the train station. The surrounding environment is very quiet, living on the second floor, the front of the large green lawn, the scenery is beautiful, surrounded by villas with good views. It is not far to the scenic spot. It takes 20 minutes to walk to the pier. You can go by boat and take a small train. I will bring friends to live in the future.

Good bits: our suite was very nice and the breakfast food on offer was good even though you had to come down at a prearranged timeslot. The bad is that the overall management of this hotel, in our experience, was very poor. There were multiple occasions (in just 2 days) when what was arranged and agreed was just not acted upon. Here's some examples: On arrival a member of staff kindly reserved a breakfast table for 4 the following morning (as we were staying with another couple) but it was taken by somebody else when we came down so we had to assume this information wasn't passed to the breakfast team. We then arranged for seating for 5 people at breakfast the following morning - different staff member said that was fine and made a note of the room numbers - yet again this wasn't done and when we asked them to make up an unoccupied table set up for 4 to a 5 (plenty of room to add another chair ) this was refused. Weeks before arriving our friends had asked for their room to be set up as a twin rather than a double but of course that hadn't been done either. We asked for our room not to be serviced during our 2 night stay yet the first morning staff knocked to come in when my partner was on the toilet - again relevant details not passed on. We were told we had reserved parking spot at the rear of the property but parking was a free-for-all. The reception area seemed to be locked up and unmanned most of the time. Yes, there was a bell to ring, but you'd expect a member of staff to be visible especially in the mornings. Finally, whilst most staff were friendly and polite, one senior staff member was off-hand when dealing with a simple request (and we overheard her being brusque with another couple). Her attitude was unpleasant and gave the impression that customers were really a bit of a nuisance. Maybe we just picked a bad weekend so whilst it wasn't a totally awful stay by any means there was enough incidents over a short period to put us off staying there again or recommending it to anyone if it continues to be run in this slack and unprofessional way. I do worry for its future.

We decided to get married, a small wedding with just 8 family members, Haisthorpe House accommodated us all quite easily. A very affordable stay, exceptionally clean and sanitised covid friendly guest house located perfectly in Windermere, 2 minutes walk to the restaurants, pubs and local amenities. What a charming house, every room has luxurious quality, from cosy mattresses that help you get your best night's sleep, lovely bathrooms and towels, elegant furnishings that all came together to make you feel very relaxed, and comfortable, the photos don't do justice to such a gorgeous house, we just loved everything, an excellent stay with the perfect hosts. Tim and Cathy are so very kind and welcoming, they went above and beyond to make our stay and Our Wedding Day just wonderful, from turning the breakfast room into a place for us to make our wedding bouquets, then the next day decorating the room with flowers and white tablecloths making it look and feel so elegant, and hosting a wedding breakfast for us all. Cathy makes the most delicious Lemon drizzle cake filled with Tim’s wonderful homemade damson jam, truly scrumptious, with drinks and music topped off with their warm and friendly demeanour, they made our whole family feel at home, like we were family with their warm heart and sincerity, we are so very indebted to them for opening their home and their hearts that made our simple wedding a truly beautiful day. Thank you so much. Anyone who wants a small cosy wedding should absolutely arrange your stay here.

Lynn snd Mike are superb hosts .Clearly they haven’t just opened “yet another B&B in Windermere” . This is really something special with thoughtful attention given to decor and comfort as well as to the lovely welcome and hospitality throughout our stay. , We really appreciated the little touches they have added to make our stay so enjoyable and memorable. Anyone could and should run a clean and tidy B& B but when you find yourself talking about their choice of furniture or drapes in the room or table settings you know the basics are already there. The only souvenir I would have stolen given half the chance was Alfie the gentle collie who we fell in love with. We wish Lynn and Mine every success.

This is a family bed and breakfast hotel, the overall environment is clean and tidy. We need to open the door to check in by ourselves. When we arrived, we called and called. A thin boy should be the son of the host's family. Helping us to take our luggage to the third floor was really hard work. Breakfast was written on the list in advance, it was very rich and full. Overall stay good

We have stayed at 1 Park Road many times now, and always enjoy our stay. The B&B is ideally situated in a quiet part of Windermere, only 5-7 minutes away from the main bustling town. Hilton runs a very well organised and friendly establishment and genuinely sets out to make sure you have a good stay. Breakfasts are fabulous and are enjoyed between 8:30am - 9:30am. We loved our stay here again. Our room was lovely, clean, well presented and was just ideal on these late summer nights that we’re experiencing. Excellent value for money and an ideal location to explore the lakes from. Thanks again Hilton. Jane & Steve xx
