Worst hotel ever

They sold me room 3 which was advertised as a room with a king size bed, with a bay window, sofa etc. just a generally nice looking room. The guy who checked us took payment for the room and gave us our keys. When we got to our room it was a small double bed, the room was small, dated, ripped bath towels, ripped wallpaper. When I asked to be put in the correct room I was told it was unavailable and his son lives in that room. Apparently it was Expedia’s fault and not there’s even though I tried to say I booked through hotels.com He said he’d refund me but only on his terms of waiting 5 hours for his wife to come home. It escalated in me calling the police and he was gesturing an offensive sign to me. Lots of videos to follow of the room and the owner so show how disgusting this place is. Don’t ever stay here it’s awful and scammers.

This hotel was perfect. Walking distance to the centre of Windermere with lots of bars and cafes. Additionally great bus links although we chose to drive which was equally convenient as there was onsite parking. You can take boat trip a 15/20 min walk away. Shower is basic but the hotel room was stunning and a really comfy bed with smart tv. Overall extremely happy and would stay again :)

Let’s just say it’s a good job we didn’t take the cat, because we couldn’t have swung it round. Compact is the term I would use, like a caravan.

The white lodge hotel

This was my first time in the lake. The Hotel was in a great location loads to do ideal if you struggle walking up hills. It was clean and comfortable and car park access was good. They had a kettle with coffee and tea which is always nice. The people who owned it were lovely and the price was fantastic.
