I felt like royalty in the stunning regal room with a four-poster bed and elegant interior design, making my stay luxurious. Although there was a creaking floorboard, the power shower and generous heating ensured a comfortable and convenient experience. The location was peaceful yet within walking distance of attractions, but might not suit everyone's tastes. The dining room provided a lovely start to the day with local ingredients, overlooking a charming garden.

I must say I was impressed by this hotel. The rooms were excellent, despite the stair climbing, and the Four Poster bed with a dressing room was a nice touch. Everything was sparkling clean, and the power shower was fab. The complimentary mini-bar and White Company products added a touch of luxury to our stay. The breakfast was absolutely delicious.

The hotel's location was superb. It was close enough to Bowness for a nice evening stroll but far enough to enjoy some peace and quiet. Plus, being near the ferry made our excursions very convenient.

My stay at the guest house was absolutely delightful. The rooms were beautifully decorated, spacious, warm, and inviting, complete with a lovely four-poster bed and separate dressing area. The owners were incredibly friendly, and the breakfast overlooking the marina was excellent. However, the location was a bit out of Bowness, and I would have enjoyed exploring the area on foot if it hadn't been raining.
