I’ve stayed in places far more expensive that were a lot worse. It’s by all means not the best place in the Lakes but the price you pay reflects what you get👍

The staff are very helpful and polite. The room was lovely, with a spacious bathroom. Close to all transport links but also not too far to walk to the lake. Noticed a bike hire shop over by the train station too. Would highly recommend and would definitely stay there again.

After reading the reviews before travelling we were a bit apprehensive..but upon arrival we were happy to be shown to a nice clean ( if somewhat basic) room..hotel reception was clean and staff friendly..breakfast is buffet style"all u can eat" with full english.cereals.fruit.juice and toast..and the pub attatched to the hotel is a nice sun trap..the £6 a nite car park charge seems a bit of a money maker..but parking anywhere else over nite in windermere costs a lot more..overall for what we paid (£260 for two nites with breeky) we cant complain and would return.
