Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is nestled along Windermere shoreline on 6 acres of picturesque grounds, offering stunning views and a tranquil setting. The rooms are tastefully decorated with lovely paintings, plush carpeting, and spacious bathrooms, providing a cozy retreat. The service is top-notch, with attentive staff offering a range of amenities. The dining experience is delightful, especially with the Sicilian cunzato bread.
The hotel offers stunning views and fantastic rooms with separate chairs and terraces. The service is exceptional with great room service and housekeeping. Situated right on the shores of Windermere between Ambleside and Windermere, the location is perfect for exploring the Lake District. The dining experience, although offering cold buffet dishes, is satisfactory. The facilities are modern and well-kept.
The hotel offers stunning views with comfortable rooms and friendly service. However, the tired location is in need of refurbishment, and the dining options are limited. The facilities are well-maintained but lack modern amenities.
