"We stayed here over the Aug 2025 bank holiday weekend and would definitely recommend this place to stay.
The location is ideal - situated on a quiet street and very short walking distance to explore Bowness. The garden at the front of the property is beautiful. We stayed in The Boat House suite which was very spacious and pleasantly decorated.
David & Jenny were extremely hospitable and delivered us a generous breakfast hamper each morning (home made preserves a lovely touch) and were very...
"The property was clean and had a peaceful ambiance. It felt like home away from home.
The water pressure in the shower was slightly erratic but it didn’t spoil our experience. "
"Booked as a short stay for our wedding anniversary. I've seen this property many times as we've walked between Windermere and Bowness and been intrigued by the waterball outside. Didn't actually realise it was this hotel when I booked.
We stayed in a lovely suite with an outside hot tub, a steam room,small sitting area and jacuzzi bath, as well as separate shower room.

"Lovely clean hotel, room was bright and clean, shower could be better with a booster pump, breakfast to die for fab choices! The only improvement would be a bar in main lounge so you could have a wee nightcap before bed!! Otherwise a lovely clean and welcoming hotel with amazing staff!!"
"A lovely apartment right in the centre of Bowness-On-Windermere. The accommodation was spotless, cleaning spray, washing up liquid and cloths were provided.
The bed was lovely and comfortable.
People have mentioned the stairs up to the apartment. They caused us no problem but if people have mobility problems I can understand they might be a problem.
If we return to the area we would stay here again. I am glad I didn’t book somewhere in Windermere, this was five minute walk to the lake. "
"Our stay at Thornbank couldn't have been better.
Jane and mark were wonderful hosts. The hotel was easy to find. Impeccably kept and had all the amenities you need. You could book breakfast and a variety of options were available. The lication was great perfevtly placed halfway between windermere and bowness for places to eat.
The frontage of the house was beautiful with lots of flowers too which was lovely. We had a great time and would highly recommend"
"This was extremely comfy stay with relaxing vibes , I strongly recommend this guest house , and definitely it would be my option fir my next Windermere trip."
"We had a lovely stay at Holly Lodge Guest House, the staff are very helpful and thoughtful. We stayed in room 2, which was a stunning room. Would definitely recommend to stay here if you are coming to Windermere!! "
