Vintage décor, antique furniture and four-poster beds in guestrooms add to the historical ambience and are loved by international visitors and couples on romantic weekend getaways.
Reviewers rave about the pleasant 25-minute walk from this hotel down to the jetties of lake Windermere. Hiking enthusiasts love being stumbling distance from beautiful walks on the Lakeland Fells, while souvenir hunters love the shops, galleries and museums in Bowness Town, also a short walk away.
Staffs' efficiency and professionalism leaves guests feeling pampered until long after their departure. Reviewers frequently describe them as polite and make mention of the warm Cumbrian welcome received on arrival and the useful recommendations made for local attractions, all of which leave a lasting impression.
Some guests hoping for a traditional full-English breakfast weren't enamoured with the lack of hot cooked sausage on the buffet, while others were left hungry after missing the tight 30-minute serving window. However, travellers frequently commend the breakfast and the seamless service received from smiling waiters.
Pokey en suite bathrooms are often singled out by reviewers as the worst thing about accommodation at this hotel. Low-pressure showers come in for lots of flack and several guests have groused about a lack of bath. Some suggest that a complimentary shower gel might soften the blow.
Though guests frequently complain that they are unable to connect to this hotel's Wi-Fi for the duration of their stay, others have managed to get online eventually but find coverage patchy at best. Those with rooms located close to routers seemed to fare better than other users.
