"A lovely apartment right in the centre of Bowness-On-Windermere. The accommodation was spotless, cleaning spray, washing up liquid and cloths were provided. The bed was lovely and comfortable. People have mentioned the stairs up to the apartment. They caused us no problem but if people have mobility problems I can understand they might be a problem. If we return to the area we would stay here again. I am glad I didn’t book somewhere in Windermere, this was five minute walk to the lake. "

Top John Ruskin Museum Hotel Reviews

Beech Hill Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Really lovely hotel with relaxed vibe. Best view from our room of lake & also from bar & restaurant. SPA was a lovely addition to our stay. All staff were attentive & friendly. We really enjoyed a 2 night break here."

"Really nice relaxing place"

Cuckoo Brow Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Parking great, perfect location for our stay to see Beatrix Potter Hill Top. Great Breakfast, a place to stay with rich history of the local area as well."

Ees Wyke Country House

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful property out of the bustle of nearby Ambleside or Hawkshead. Lovingly cared for and staffed. Gorgeous views, delicious breakfast and dinner, and a hot shower. Hikes out the door. 5 minute walk to Beatrix Potter's home at Hill Top. We hope to return."

Macdonald Old England Hotel & Spa

8/10 Good

"Staff were amazing, hotel was very old though. Just the 1 small lift. Gutters were overflowing when it rained. But location is class. Car parking is a massive issue however that’s not really the hotel fault but Just one to be aware of, although the hotels answer to the parking issue is to charge you £25 to use their car park but even that gets full by 1100. So plan ahead for parking. Breakfast is nice. Overall a good stay with amazing staff but just a very aging hotel with signs money has dried up."

"A very reasonably priced room with a good choice of included breakfast. I will be recommending this place to my friends."
