The hotel is old & a bit tired in places, but comfortable. Beds are comfy. Our room on the first floor was well ventilated, but the attic rooms are less so. A car is required unless you’re a good walker as it’s 1.5 miles from Bowness.

Breakfast options were very limited. Hardly any fruit. Coffee machine was not working on one of the mornings and not one member of staff offered an alternative drink? Very poor.

Lovely stay. Staff all very welcoming. Food lovely with extensive buffet breakfast and dinner was also very nice. Rooms spacious but could have maybe done with some updating. Nice balcony which we couldnt use unfortunately due to the weather.Lovely views of lake windemere from the grounds. We enjoyed the pool and were lucky enough to have it to ourselves every day. Location good but did mean we had to drive. Didnt struggle to get parked at the hotel.

I have stayed at Windermere Manor a few times before, but this time my room was substandard. The cleanliness of the room was questionable, with mould very visible on several windows and rust and stains on the carpet next to the radiator (I have taken photos). Also, no full length mirror in the room, just a small wall mounted mirror in the bathroom. The staff however were lovely. But, I will genuinely think twice before staying here again.

Brilliant 1 night stay. Spacious clean room. Breakfast was nice. Parking on site. 25min walk to the centre of Bowness. The only slight bad point was a member of staff in the office behind reception F-ing and jeffing very loud about another member of staff while we were checking in.
