loved it great atmosphere very friendly will definately come back
does what it says on the tin, bed and breakfast, its clean and friendly. Nice comfy beds and a good breakfast.
We couldn't of got a better welcome, all the bar staff were also very friendly and the room was perfect for us. Definitely go back here!
Watched England v Sweden great atmosphere met some great people footballs coming home
Love this pub,staff very friendly. Have stayed at the pub quite a few times and have had some good nights in here. Entertainment good as well.
Had a nice light bite for lunch a few pints of real ale and the manager was very accommodating and changed the SKY channel so that I could watch the match ����
Had a great time watching the rugby with great service xx
Good hotel. Stayed a night and had a nice cooked breakfast. Will go again
Absolutely loved it stayed 24 March will deffo be back never been windermere before .thanks to all staff
1st time staying ere and it was great, the staff you couldnt fault anyone they were all lovely, the room was a lovely size and very clean and the breakfast was very filling and not greasy at all. Would definitely stay ere again ���
Went for lunch had fish and chips hubby had steak pudding fish and pudding was lovely. chips were frozen so not so much nice pot of tea and staff friendly.
The staff were very helpful really enjoyed the stay only problem was in the suite upstairs was absolutely freezing no heating in the room, as you got on the landing and was nice and warm, other than that was a good weekend.
Me and my husband stayed here last night for our 1st wedding anniversary, we had a lovely lunch when we arrived and a fabulous breakfast this morning. The pub atmosphere was great in the evening we enjoyed a couple of drinks before heading to our room which was lovely and quiet . Loved the fact we could use the spa facilities next door . We would definitely stay again.
Its a little bit better on prices cause im not a tight wad but i know what things are worth so a pint of 1664 and a small bottle of wine is £8.15 all the other places around here want about £12 for a pint and a large wine robbing bastards. The staff were nice and the entertainment good overall its a good place
Had lunch and a pint in here on Sunday. Very nice bar and the food was good also generous portions and reasonably priced. Staff were friendly too
Great location room and ensuite very clean nice comfy bed friendly staff great breakfast value for money will stay again
Went here for food, the food was nice enough but the staff were a bit misrable.
My wife and son had the fish and chips and the chef brought out the bread and butter and said "Just to let you know I've mistakenly cooked two larger prices of fish so if you come again they won't be that big" Why the heck did she need to tell us that?
The pub itself is OK but don't go to the toilet. Toilet roll dispenser smashed and paper all over the floor. No lock on toilet door, smashed. Toilet door is dilapidated with paneling coming away. Not a good advert for a Lake District pub. It needs money spending on it and a regular check by staff during the course of the day.
Good place to stay for a night. Would have given another star ⭐️ if had been able to get some food when we got back at quarter past 8 in the evening. Great location though. Staff were friendly and breakfast was good too.
loved it great atmosphere very friendly will definately come back
