    Nothing about the hotel but only were it was situated as it was a very steep hill and not to good if disabled persons with walking difficulties and asmatics which I am.

    The staff was very helpful and friendly We arrived late in the evening and the staff pointed us to a lovely pub to get some food .The room was clean and tidy,the bed was so comfortable the on-suiet bathroom was beautiful and quite spacious. We had breakfast and this was really nice and filling us up until evening. All in all I would definitely stay again and even recommend to friends. And it was quite central to town.

    Room 5 was very comfortable and well equipped but was on the 2nd floor up 4 flights of stairs, this information would have been helpful in advance. The hotel is also located up a steep hill from the centre.

    Good quality full English breakfast with choices of cereal etc.

    My cousin who isn’t very fit struggled with the steep slope into the town, so anyone with mobility issues could find the short walk uphill to the property a problem . Otherwise it’s close to everything.

    Nice little touches made this stay very nice. A fridge on the landing with little bottles of fresh milk and bottled water. The owner also left homemade ginger cake out to have with your cuppa, and on the 2nd day , carrot cake - both were delicious The bedroom was lovely as was the bathroom. Homemade shortbread in the room was also a nice touch Lovely fresh bedding and towels. Breakfast was also delicious with good quality items.

    We had the suite on the top floor, very spacious and well equipped. Breakfast good quality and freshly cooked, homemade cake and biscuits, fresh milk and water provided too. Plenty of parking, a short very steep walk down to town.

    My partner bumped his head a couple of times on one of the low exposed beams in the room which made us both a bit cautious when moving about the room. Something we would have got used to I am sure had we stayed longer

    Superb breakfast freshly cooked to order, great selection of cereals, juice etc. Liked the extra touches during our stay- shortbread nibbles in room. Chilled bottled water, fresh chilled milk and cakes provided which was a lovely surprise. Room was unique and luxurious. Especially loved the shower and the quality of the sheets and bedding

    There isn't anything to dislike..... Maybe the location isn't right in the main streets but the room sizes and views more than make up for this .....

    The House is lovely. Gorgeous interiors downstairs and in the bedroom. Very well kept garden for guest use. I enjoyed relaxing in the deep freestanding bath and watching the clouds moving by from the chair in the huge bedroom window. Room was an excellent size. Excellent value for money given the room size compared to some guest houses in Bowness. The breakfast room is lovely to sit in too. Great choices at Breakfast . Nice touches including a fridge for guest use containing plenty of fresh milk , water and home made biscuits. Excellent hosts at the property. Well done Nick. Your house is pretty special ....

    This is an exceptional bed and breakfast hotel in the heart of Bowness. Close to all the pubs, restaurants, shops and the lakeside, though up a short steep hill!! The bedroom (room 4) was very spacious and clean with a superb bath and shower. Nick the host also provides a few welcome added touches such as homemade cakes, bottles of water and fresh milk. There was a choice of cooked full English or Vegetarian breakfasts, plus bread, cereals and yoghurts.

    Was only a couple of minutes from the main town, but a very steep hill on approach to the property. Would be difficult if you had mobility issues.

    Had a king room. Bathtub was huge and plenty of hot water. Toiletries were exceptional. Nice touches of fresh milk and complimentary home made cake. Breakfast was delicious. Beautiful gardens.
