Enjoyed our stay

Lovely room and we enjoyed the lake view. The breakfast hamper was fine. The only thing we didn’t love were the bed and pillows. But we do sleep on an exceptionally comfortable bed at home so maybe that wouldn’t be an issue for most people. Overall we enjoyed our stay.

Worth considering.

The suite itself was very nice. It was spacious, very well decorated, clean and well maintained.. The breakfast was fine, if a cooked breakfast is not your thing. Excellent location for the town centre, but at the same time very quiet. The one big draw back was the parking situation. We did not feel comfortable pulling up outside, as had been suggested, to drop the cases off or to pick up the car park ticket due to there being double yellow lines outside, plus it being the only stretch of road in Bowness with police no waiting bollards! We had great difficulty finding a car park space on any of the car parks (around 12.30 pm). We paid for the minimum of 3 hours and went to collect the car park ticket from the suites when that time was nearly up. The ticket did not cover the car park we were on so we had to move the car, only to find a place very difficult to find on the correct car park: we must have been there 15 minutes before a place became available. This is not likely to be so bad at other times of the year. As above, the suites themselves are very nice. Guests may like to consider catching a train to Windermere and then a taxi to Bowness instead of taking the car.

Lovely stay at Bowness Bay Suites

Really lovely place to stay, it was immaculately clean and very comfortable and spacious. The owner was so helpful and friendly also. It's located right in the town of Bowness, next to some great pubs and places to eat, being only a 2 minute walk to the lake also. Parking is offsite however it's only a short walk through the lovely town of Bowness to the public car park, but we never had a problem getting a space when we'd been out for the day and there's room to leave your car outside the suites to pick up/drop off luggage easily enough. Would definitely stay here again.

Average hotel.

We had a really great much needed break. The hotel was in a perfect spot for all local amenities and was ok. The rooms were not as glamorous as they looked in the pictures and with the breakfast that was provided I would say it was overpriced. I look forward to more than cereal and juice when I’m away. I understand there are restrictions due to Covid but It felt like a very easy option and no effort made. The check in was not the most friendly. We had a ground floor room so had to sit with curtains closed or passers by would stare in and also next to reception so was listening to the phone ringing and didn’t feel particularly private. Maybe other rooms were better.
