Stayed here after reading the excellent reviews here and I am glad we did. Offers excellent value and a friendly service, even the cleaners were really friendly! Upon arrival you're offered tea/coffee, when you get to your room there are little extras that you don't often see like orange squash, cotton buds, facial tissues and in the four poster rooms... more

This is the third time my partner and I have stayed at the Willowsmere, and we can never fault it. On arrival we were welcomed by Sue, and were offered a nice cup of tea with a biscuit in the beautiful garden. After an 8 hour drive, this was just what we needed! Cleanliness must be their top priority because... more

Having read all the glowing reviews about this B&B we decided to stay there, and although it was fine I feel many of the reviews and ratings are way over the top. On the plus side: - 10 min walk to Windermere train station - owners are helpful - clean rooms, well decorated Minuses: - location isn't that great -... more

Stayed her Monday to Friday and could hardly fault it. We stayed on the top floor and although the room was spacious and spotlessly clean the bathroom had no natural light so felt a little dark, however Martin did tell us, without any prompting, that they were to be updated to include skylights so a bonus when we return. The... more

I stayed for two nights in April 2008 in a deluxe single (double bed) which cost a total of £86 for the stay. I was greeted by the proprietor and immediately made to feel at home by being offered a welcome pot of tea, even before i had signed in. The hotel is wonderfully furnished with leather sofas and chairs... more

We stayed here for five days from April 21. The greeting was lovely tea, coffee and biscuits when we arrived in the first lounge with a roaring open fire. The second lounge is brighter with a view out to the garden. Our room was splendid with a four poster bed, nice view, soft towels and dressing gowns. Tea and Coffee... more

Just returned from a two night stay at the Willowsmere. We stayed in a four poster double room which was beautiful and spotlessly clean. The whole guesthouse was immaculate and all the staff were friendly and very helpful. The Willowsmere is just a short walk from Windermere, but a bit more of a walk to Bowness about 30minutes. The first... more
