Decided to stay at Woodlands after reading other reviews which seemed very favourable. Was not disappointed - staff so friendly and nothing was too much trouble. Bit of a walk to Bowness - but was all downhill. Windermere slightly shorter walk. Breakfast was always freshly cooked to order and waiting time was very minimal. We stayed three nights and each...

Stayed here for one night after being unable to find a place lower down in Bowness and searching through many websites.. The staff and owners were extremely pleasant and helpful and the rooms were nicely decorated. The breakfasts were extremely good. We had full english but the couple on the next table had pancakes with strawberries & other fruits, this... More

Welcomed by Amy on arrival who was informative and very friendly, clearly passionate about both the hotel and surrounding area. The room was decorated and furnished to a high standard and was impeccably clean. The quality and choice of breakfast was superb setting us up for... More

This hotel is located in an excellent location mid way between Windermere and Bowness. The staff were friendly and pleasant, the food was excellent, the room was very comfortable and clean and there was ample car parking space. The hotel also has the benefit of spa facilities at a nearby hotel. Would definitely stay here again. More

My partner and I stayed here for two days and found it to be a lovely welcoming break. The couple who run it were really nice and friendly as we're the staff. Room was to a high standard and the full English breakfast was top notch. Best of all though was the afternoon tea we got as part of the... More
