Windermere Boutique Hotel Spa Suites & Hot Tubs

Hotel in Windermere

Just a mile from Lake Windermere in the heart of the Lake District, this luxury boutique hotel offers home-cooked food and free Wi-Fi.

Overall, everything was perfect. The room was large enough, the supplies were sufficient, and the service staff were very kind and tried their best to meet all our needs during our stay. I have to mention Charlie, he is seriously the funniest person I have ever met in the UK. The hot tub should be the biggest feature of this hotel. My wife and I enjoyed it for three whole days and were very satisfied. The price/performance ratio is very good. The hotel is located in the middle of the two towns of Bowness and Windermere, and it is very convenient to walk to both towns. In any case, I will definitely recommend this hotel next time I come to the Lake District, or if my friends want to travel to the Lake District.

It’s a lovely place. The view was spectacular! The room is so pretty and the bedding is of very high quality. Staff is most helpful. It was raining when we arrived by a car, one of the staff member was standing in the car park with an umbrella - so considerate. Breakfast was delicious. We didn’t want to leave. Highly recommended. Whatever you see, it’s a picture - indoor and outdoor. Super experience.

Sawrey House is in the most gorgeous quiet location out of Windermere. It has a beautiful garden which can be enjoyed from the courtyard or the various seating areas inside. There’s wonderful food options- I had the afternoon tea and a charcuterie board and both were amazing. The staff were so helpful and it felt like a family stay away from home. I have already recommended this property to my friends.

The hotel manager Morgan really demonstrated exemplary hospitality. He personally drove us out of a storm to the hotel when the trains shut down and the taxis in the vicinity were not in service. He also upgraded our room when the storm affected WiFi in some parts of our hotel and saw to it that we were comfortable and cosy. 10/10 hospitality, and by far the absolute best travel experiences with a Hotel we've had and could've asked for (and it isn't even close!). Choose Beech Hill Hotel and Spa if you're in the vicinity. You'll be well taken care of : )

We’ve travelled extensively, but our stay at the Mortal Man truly exceeded expectations. The combination of breathtaking views, cozy charm, and warm hospitality made this visit unforgettable. The staff were all welcoming and the dog-friendly accommodation was a real bonus—our four-legged companions were as happy as we were! Thank you for creating such a special and memorable experience—we’ll definitely be back!

The area was mostly fine.

The area was mostly fine. In some areas the town was looking tired. Absence of any visible street cleaning. We must have passed an area where someone had let their dog foul the pavement at least eight times as we walked up and down to our guest house and back down towards the lake I know it’s individual dog owners where the responsibility lies but even so it’s a big tourist area So one would expect a bit more pride in the area Unfortunately we won’t be rushing back to visit

Bowness is a pretty little village/town on the edge of lake Windermere. The people are kind and happy. There is so much to see and do i go twice a year! It doesn't matter what the weather you can find something/somewhere to entertain yourself. I recommend for families, and couples young or old, but it is hilly so take walking shoes!!

There is plenty to see in Ambleside with an excellent range of shops and places to eat. There was lots of live music over the weekend. We saw a fantastic jazz band at Zeffireli's. Our biggest disappointment was Hill Top - make sure you book in advance otherwise they won't let you park in the carpark and visit the property.

Fantastic stay as a last minute decision for our family of 5 and the dog. Friendly welcome and freshly cleaned pod on arrival. Spacious enough for us all - even my 6ft4 husband slept well. Pods heated up quickly and held the heat nicely through the night. Toilets and showers were clean and had hooks on the doors for keeping clothes dry etc. We didn’t use the kitchen area but it was clean and spacious. Games room had plenty of seating and a table tennis table but no rackets or ball unfortunately. The campfire area was loved by our children in the evening. Enough parking space and close to lots of local walks and experiences. There were bikes on site that could be hired which would be a great family activity but I’m not sure on the pricing.

Pretty hamlet with 2 excellent pubs serving great food. Easy walking area from the hamlet and access to more challenging walking not far away. Away from the tourist traps of the Lake District. Would recommend eating at The Hare and Hounds for upmarket gastro pub food. The Masons Arms also serves good pub food. The Punchbowl at Crosthwaite is a 10 min drive away and is a very good restaurant
