    easy access to the stunning windermere lake and peaceful parks

    The peaceful and reflective atmosphere here really drew me in, especially with the beautiful grounds leading right to Windermere Lake, providing an ideal spot for leisurely walks and stunning views. You're just a short stroll from Borrans Park, perfect for enjoying a sunny afternoon. As a solo traveler, I appreciated the clean and comfortable room that gave me a cozy place to unwind after long explorations.

    The stunning views from my room were very nice, especially during sunrise. Enjoyed exploring the vast parkland surrounding the hall, which was full of wildlife. Perfect for nature lovers! Peaceful and relaxing atmosphere.

    nature lovers
    clean facilities
    big bed
    crowded vehicles
    basic variety

    The view from my room was breathtaking, especially at sunrise. I spent time walking in the vast parkland surrounding the hall, teeming with wildlife. This place is perfect for nature lovers. My room felt really comfortable with a big bed and clean facilities. Staff were incredibly kind and helpful, making my stay even more pleasant. I did run into some issues with parking. it was difficult to find a spot as the area was crowded with staff vehicles. I wouldn't say the breakfast offered much variety—it felt a bit basic. Still, I had no significant complaints overall.

    breathtaking view
    spacious room
    paddleboard access
    limited dining options

    We had a fantastic stay with my father here. The room was lovely and spacious, and the view of Lake Windermere was breathtaking. Plus, having the option to launch a paddleboard straight from the boathouse made our visit even more memorable.

    For dads, it would be great if there were more family-friendly dining options.

    spacious kitchen
    stunning location
    limited microwaves

    Had a great time with friends! We explored stunning local hikes and enjoyed a cookout in the spacious kitchen, which was perfect for our large group. The location is beautiful, close to nature, but be prepared for a walk to town! I recommend visiting the nearby lake and local trails.

    One downside was the limited microwaves available, which caused a bit of confusion on rules for common areas.

    spacious room
    service disorganization

    stunning views but service could improve

    The receptionist was polite and helped with all our requests. The view from our spacious room was breathtaking.

    The service, while friendly, felt slightly disorganized at times.
