This was around the 5th time we've stayed at The Cottage. The location is perfect for our needs. We don't spend a lot of time in the room and it's easy walking distance to Windermere and Bowness with loads of bar and restaurant choices. The breakfast is always excellent and the service friendly. Parking is adequate. We pretty much always get the same rooms which are comfortable and clean.

Can't really fault it. It's quiet and perfectly located.

Perfect location, close to so many choices for cafes, restaurants, pubs and shops and only a short walk to Bowness for more choice and of course the boat trips. Room 10 is a beautiful room with a freestanding claw foot bath as well as a super comfy super king bed, a bathroom with shower and a seating area. Everywhere is well presented and beautifully clean. The breakfast choice is vast and all cooked to order and served to your table by the friendliest staff. Nothing is too much trouble. Room 9 is a lovely twin with a large shower room. Thank you so much, we had such a great time and would definitely recommend The Cottage 10/10

Nothing to dislike

We loved sitting on the couch by the bay window in the room to read or enjoy a glass of wine (glasses and wine opener were provided!). We loved being able to sit at the same breakfast table before 8.30am and were served coffee early. We had the most comfortable bed here among the accommodations in this trip. It felt like a second home.

There are little quirky areas that may seem a tad odd, like the tray(?) above the wash basin that could hit your ahead if you are not careful, the hangers that could not be taken out and make hanging of clothes difficult. But I much appreciate the efforts made by the owner and staff to make the stay very pleasant and comfortable.

Lovely comfortable beds, convenient location for restaurants and also only 10/15 minute walk to lake. Lots of buses go past too. But it was still reasonably quiet for a town location. Breakfast fairly basic veggie options but nice enough for couple of days and the ladies that served it were friendly

If I'm being picky the rooms could probably do with some tlc considering the price per night but bathroom was good and clean with nice shower. Also it wasn't a problem as we knew it was the case but I do think the place could benefit from a local person greeting you on arrival as I think it just gives a b and b that extra special feel although the self check in was very easy and is convenient and has it's advantages!

Everything. The host was extremely helpful, she couldn't have done more to help us. The self check in was easy, the room number 3 had a four poster bed, there was a stand along bath, the bathroom was very modern with toiletries and a bidet built into the toilet if you wanted to use it. The hotel itself dated back to the 1800s and they have kept a lot of the original features but have also incorporated some modern touches. We had large tv 55inch and a fridge in our room with plenty of tea/coffee/milk etc. At the side of the bed we each had a very modern led light which incorporated a wireless phone charger. Also free parking with a space for every room. This place is faultless and we will certainly be coming back. Very impressed.

Like everything.

The hotel is in a great spot just up the hill from Bowness-on-Windermere and we very much enjoyed the walk. It's really handy having parking as not all hotels in the area offer this. The hotel itself was a little bit old fashioned but this didn't detract at all from our stay. Our room was more modern and the breakfast was brilliant, as was the lady who served us, who was very friendly and helpful.

The attic room (5) didn't really have anywhere to hang our clothes. There was a narrow cupboard with a rail and coat hangers behind the front door to the room, but the hangers were attached and it wasn't possible to open the door properly, due to it's proximity to the large hinge of the door to the room. So we hung our coats on the coat hook that was provided and left our clothes in our bag. As we were only there for the night, this didn't really matter, but had we been there for a longer stay it would have been an issue.

Great price. Location was brilliant. 5 minute walk from the train station and a minute walk to the centre. Very easy to find. I was given an upgraded room at no extra cost. The room was clean and kitted out well. The bed was comfy. The breakfast was brilliant and the lady who works there was both friendly and funny. She recommended places to go and was generally very helpful with everyone. I wouldn't think twice about booking here again!! My only reservation would be if I were to bring my dog next time as I don't think the property is dog friendly.

Fantastic B&B, Great Location, parking on Site, Comfortable Room, Huge bed!, Lovely clean bathroom with a shower, Bath Sheets which were a bonus, most places have bath towels. Breakfast with good, great coffee. The lady that serves the breakfast in the morning (Muriel) is a gem, very friendly, helpful and very knowledgeable. I would definitely go back there. The Location is great as Bowneess is down the road and easy to get to Ambleside or Keswick from there.
