Beech Hill Hotel & Spa, hotel in Windermere

In beautiful landscaped gardens, the Beech Hill Hotel has an AA Rosette restaurant and a Spa centre consisting of an indoor heated swimming pool, a sauna, a steam room and outdoor spa pools (please...

A beautiful location with stunning views over the lake Windermere. The room I had “premier” was absolutely fantastic. Clean and tidy. With the most beautiful view of the lake. The room also featured a door that takes you outside to a little garden area. Jet spa bath and walk in shower were both amazing and worked absolutely spot on. Bathroom was clean and well present. Upon arrival I was greeted by a lovely old building with great character and charm. Sure it’s a little dated but I think it adds to the atmosphere. Staff were extremely helpful and friendly. The lovely man behind the bar wrote down some locations I should visit whilst I was in the area. The spa is lovely. Very clean and sterile. A lovely steam room and dry sauna with a very large pool and sun loungers. Outside there were 2 hot tubs, looking over the lake. I cannot lie I don’t think I’ve ever sat in a hot tub with a view like that! The prices are a little on the expensive side. But I think it was worth it for the experience that I had. It was fab! Worth noting - £20 charge per person per day on the spa (but they do tell you this).

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.

Loved nearly all parts of this stay. The staff, hot tub, bed, breakfast, location were all great. Coming back to a different towel design after room service each time was really fun. We had an extended stay as I had never been to Windemere and we hadn't been able to go on holiday for a few years at this point, and I felt like we had plenty to do (though we both enjoy walks) but with enough time to also properly relax in the spa room. Would definitely come back here again.

Located near Ambleside, The Samling Hotel has a garden and a terrace. The property features a bar, as well as a restaurant serving British cuisine.

Pancakes for breakfast were burnt and inedible - had to be sent back - that was just one morning. Evening taster meal was fabulous, lived up to expectations.

    Being a dog owner where we stayed it was obvious it was not first class, more like third class because of owning dogs. The bed was uncomfortable, the fan wasn't working in the bathroom. The room was like a box. The corridor outside our room was noisy I had to ask for the people to be quiet. Away from the room the area is fantastic shame about the room. A big disappointment

    Windermere truly lives up to its reputation as a magical place. Nestled amidst picturesque landscapes, it feels like stepping into a storybook. The serene lake, rolling hills, and charming villages create an otherworldly atmosphere. However, if I must point out a drawback, it would be the transportation situation. Getting to Windermere by train can be quite challenging. Delays, unexpected disruptions, and even outright train cancellations are not uncommon. My own journey was marred by a harrowing series of train mishaps before finally arriving. For travelers considering a trip here, I strongly advise paying extra attention to train schedules and potential disruptions. Despite the transportation challenges, Windermere’s beauty is worth experiencing. Whether you’re strolling along the lakeshore or exploring the nearby countryside, it’s a place that leaves a lasting impression

    The nature is awesome.

    The nature is awesome. Some quaint towns like Ambleside are amazing but one should plan foe short walks like Rydal caves to Grasmere. The views are stunning. Windermere is excellent place to stay in Lake District and ine can then plan day trips from there. Getting around even by public transport is convenient by buses just that plan it properly considering which outbound and inbound bus you should take. Restelli Italia , Bondori Burrito were excellent Italian and Mexican restaurants. We loved Bowness on Windermere, Keswick and Ambleside.

    Love Windermere & have travelled to the area countless times for holidays & mini breaks, great location for exploring all that the Lake District offers. Would recommend staying in Windermere because it’s a great base & has every amenity necessary for a good holiday. We ate with friends on this visit but there are plenty of cafes & restaurants close by to meet most peoples needs.

    Windermere was beautiful.

    Windermere was beautiful. We didn't realise before coming that down by the lake is classed as Bowness, which is much busier and touristy. So staying in Windermere really suited us as we could get down to the Lake easily enough, but liked being in a quieter location with some lovely independent places to eat.

    This was my first time visiting the Lake District and I couldn’t have asked for anything better, it was way better than what I had expected! The food that was served in the restaurant was out of this world, the room was very clean, spacious and had everything we needed. I would highly recommend the Windermere manor hotel to anyway that decides to visit the beautiful Lake District and I will deffo stay here again next time I’m down :)

    If you need a place to hideaway, it’s a perfect choice. Richard and the team are very friendly and helpful. Very easily get to Windermere station and center, but it’s still very quiet because of its location. The room is just comfortable, everything is well maintained and very clean, not that big but really comfortable. Breakfast is brilliant, tasty and well combined, that’s not something you get from so called “continental breakfast “

    Everything :) Warm welcome thanks to Francesca, and a delicious breakfast thanks to James. Needed something fixed in the room and it was resolved immediately while I was exploring the town and my room and amenities were freshened up which was a lovely touch. Location wise it's incredible, close walk to Bowness-on-Windermere (and the lake!), Orrest Head viewpoint, Windermere centre, and the train station. Thank you to the team.

    Good, modern hotel well situated 10 mins from Windermere and 20 from Bowness. Check in and ongoing keyless access worked well. Parking space was a available. The apartment was a bit tight on space but manageable. As other reviews have mentioned, the fridge is powered by a jet engine so it had to be switched off overnight. Bit pricey but within the range for good hotels in the area.

    It is a beautiful area to visit and Meadfoot is in a perfect location to walk into Bowness on Windermere or into the village of Windermere. We were very happy with the accommodation, the breakfast is great and Steve and Gail are a lovely couple who provide a very professional service. Parking is provided and the house has spacious gardens if you feel like resting there.

    The hosts were very friendly and couldn't do enough to make us feel welcome. The hotel itself was decorated beautifully and was very clean. The location was ideal for exploring Windermere and the wider Lakes area. The food was high quality and cooked to order and the selection was great. Having a parking space on site was an unexpected added bonus.

    The breakfast was incredible, every day we had something different and each time it was brilliant. Also the location is perfect it’s so near to so many walks some of which are a short drive and some you can walk by starting at the hotel! It’s also only a 10 minute walk from both Windermere and Bowness on Windermere’s centres. Would recommend to everyone!

    Location is exceptional with super views of Lake Windermere. The older parts of the hotel are lovely - lots of warm wood in Arts and Crafts style. Our newer room (one of the “lodges” was comfortable and very spacious with a good en-suite bathroom. The little spa facility was nice. Breakfasts were ample and delicious.
