The stay was lovely, Denis and Anita are very accommodating and friendly. Lemon cake on arrival and home baked cookies in the room are great touches. The guesthouse is in a great location and the breakfast is exceptional!
Had an enjoyable, pleasant and memorable 5-day stay and was well taken care of by Anita and Denis, the chef who cooked delicious breakfast. Would love to be back!
This was a lovely spot for my stay in Windermere. Very convenient to the train station and bus stop, as well as pubs and restaurants. My room was comfortable and roomy with a full bath, including tub, and a beautiful view of the fells when the weather was clear. Anita and Denis are great hosts - warm and welcoming. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again.
I stayed 2 days with my wife. Absolutely loved our stay at The Archway Guesthouse! Anita and Denis are incredibly friendly and welcoming hosts who go above and beyond to make us feel at home. The breakfast was a real highlight—rich, delicious, and made with care, offering a perfect start to the day. The location is also excellent, with convenient access to transportation that made getting around easy. Highly recommended for anyone visiting the area!
Fantastic location, made even better by sunny weather. Our hosts were very attentive and nothing was too much trouble. Even my Spanish Inquisition about the contents of the full English breakfast didn't phase them. Parking was a squeeze, but we got in and out to the annoying sounds of the park assist beeping furiously all the time. One minor niggle was the teapot was too small for the 2 cups, so one of us had the ubiquitous teabag in a cup. The room was small and the ensuite even smaller, but that's the price you pay for choosing the standard room. Nice shower, though. All in all a great weekend.
Anita and Dennis were wonderful,friendly hosts and we loved staying there. Our room was beautiful with an amazing view and the breakfasts were spectacular! Would definitely recommend!
Beautiful room and view, the bed was very large & comfortable and the room was a lovely size - the en suite was an amazing size too! We stayed in the Windermere room, listed as Superior Double. Anita and Denis were so welcoming and helpful with recommendations and the breakfast was delicious both mornings. Location is perfect, only a 5 minute walk to the station and in the very centre of the lovely Windermere. We’d absolutely love to come back to stay next time we’re in the lakes.
Lovely guest house in Windermere town, close to lots of quirky shops, bars and lovely restaurants, and of course great walks too. Anita and Denis are great hosts and nothing was too much trouble, lovely breakfast too. Highly recommend
Lovely house, delicious breakfast, everything you suggested worked very well. You made our trip easier and enjoyable, thank you for understanding our late check in and waiting for us, many thanks for everything you did for us!
We enjoyed a wonderful stay at Denis and Anita’s guesthouse. They were wonderful hosts and we really appreciated the little touches such as the lovely cake and cookies on arrival. Breakfast was fantastic and our hosts were really helpful when we couldn’t find a space to park on the street on arrival, also with recommendations for places to eat locally. We would wholeheartedly recommend The Archway Guest House and hope to return in the future. Thank you Denis and Anita
