Bowness is a lovely location on Lake Windermere.
Bowness is a lovely location on Lake Windermere. If you like trips by water, it is a good place to visit but a bit lacking in things to do apart from that. There is a good bus service to Kendal or Keswick but leave the car and use public transport. You can go to Ambleside by boat or bus but the town is packed during the summer season.

The view from the window, presentation of the property, decor of the room, bottle of water on arrival. Closeness of township. The staircase was a challenge and heating could have been better controlled.
LorraineAustralia - 10Scored 10
The location was just perfect.
The location was just perfect. It was central for us to adventure out and explore the Lake District. It was also an exciting location for relaxation in the evenings. Lots of fine restaurants and pubs to choose from with a lovely holiday atmosphere abounding everywhere. Regretfully the car ferry was out of order and not available to us. That was a bit of a nuisance as our touring plans had envisaged that being available. None the less we had a fabulous holiday and were not overly put-out by the loss.David - 10Scored 10

It is so easy going in Bowness we try to come here as often as we can. There’s something to do for everyone young and old. We have a dog now and he’s so relaxed here many places are dog friendly. Bars and restaurants brilliant especially Italians on the Main Street. Our favourite place can’t wait to come backAAnonymous - 10Scored 10

I liked the Beatrix Potter museum, Holehird Gardens, and Stagshaw gardens, Hayes garden centre up in Ambleside. Booked an amazing day trip with Mountain Goat tours that took us around ten Lakes of the Lake District with our amazing guide Mark Shipley. the restaurants I went to was Francine's up in Windermere, Urban Food House (superb) and the Magic Roundabout. I was within walking distance of everything in Bowness. I probably would avoid booking in the school holidays, was very busy everywhere. the weather was very changeable but it is the wettest area of Great Britain.AAnonymous - 8.0Scored 8.0

Lots of shops, pubs, restaurants etc. Can take a boat trip on the lake around the islands or go to Ambleside. Nice place. Beware it can be hilly if you have mobility issues. Overall nice place to visit.AAnonymousUnited Kingdom

- From € 184.75 per night8.8Scored 8.8FabulousRated fabulous· 1,039 reviewsAll three rooms were excellent in size and space, and two of the rooms had a lovely balcony. The staff were friendly and approachable. The restaurant at Burn How is excellent with good variety of breakfast options. The location is superb and within easy reach of town centre as well as the lake. The free parking was just outside the front door of each room and there are two separate entrances to the hotel. There is a lovely garden at the back which allows for a gentle stroll and sitting down with a drink.
TachyphoenixUnited Kingdom - 8.0Scored 8.0Very goodRated very good· 681 reviewsYour hotel was a perfect location for seeing all the sights of Bowness. We enjoyed your wonderful breakfasts and the friendliness of your staff. Our highlight of our stay was that you gave me a picture off your upstairs landing wall. I had mentioned to my daughter that I wondered if you would sell it to me. I couldn't believe it when I was presented with it at breakfast. Thank you so much. I see it daily and it is now a constant reminder of our stay with you. Thank you again.AnneUnited States

The Covid situation has prevented the full array of choice, self serve cereals, fruit etc at the present time, but for us it was not a problem. The en suite room was bright and comfy. Its position is just a few hundred metres from all that's going on at Bowness on Windermere, we love it here.
