Nice owner, even there is an IT system failure and my booking didn’t go through to them, they still get me accommodated.
I arrived late around 2300, not able to find the property, call them and call answer straight away.
Clean nice room. Very high standard for a guest house. I would say hotel grade as I have been a hotel manager in most of my career in hospitality industry.

Decent Guest House in Bowness on Windermere
The location is great, just a few minutes to the town centre. The area is quiet so you can take a nice rest after a long hike. The room is very comfy and seems it’s newly renovated.
