Best Five Star Hotels in Windermere

We have just returned from a 2 night stay at The Beaumont House in Windermere. This is an excellent property and very convenient to Windermere centre with a 5 minute walk to restaurants, coffee bars and shops. Denise and Sandra were very efficient, pleasant and helpful. The property is extremely clean and in a quiet area. The bedroom we stayed in, which was a Superior Double room, was large and comfortable. There was a good choice at breakfast which was very tasty. Highly recommended.

There is free parking space, the bedding is very comfortable, and there is heating at night. The landlord is very nice. The breakfast was superb. It was the best I have had during my trip to the UK. The hotel is located between Windermere and Bowness, about 10 minutes walk from the two towns, which is very convenient. highly recommended!

Lynn snd Mike are superb hosts .Clearly they haven’t just opened “yet another B&B in Windermere” . This is really something special with thoughtful attention given to decor and comfort as well as to the lovely welcome and hospitality throughout our stay. , We really appreciated the little touches they have added to make our stay so enjoyable and memorable. Anyone could and should run a clean and tidy B& B but when you find yourself talking about their choice of furniture or drapes in the room or table settings you know the basics are already there. The only souvenir I would have stolen given half the chance was Alfie the gentle collie who we fell in love with. We wish Lynn and Mine every success.

We had a brilliant stay thanks to Vicky, Jonathan and the team. This was our second visit to the Windermere Suites; this time we stayed in the Grassmere Suite; this was a lovely bright room with a lovely huge comfy bed, lots of wardrobe space, all the amenities including a paid mini bar if you need it; overlooking the main road. The TV has Netflix, YouTube, iPlayer all included. The room service breakfast is pre ordered the day before and delivered at your chosen time. We enjoyed a range during our 3 night stay including full English, Vegetarian, Boiled Eggs, Pastries and more. All very nicely served. The room is as toasty as you’d like it to be with powerful radiators if you need them - and it comes with a lovely sized bathroom that includes a jacuzzi bath tub, tv in the room and walk in shower. The hotel is within walking distance to all the amenities, pubs, restaurants and attractions in Bowness and Windermere. Really enjoyed our stay and have already booked to come back for New Year at the end of 2024. Looking forward to visiting again! Thanks to Vicky, Jonathan and all the team for the warm welcome 😊

We have stayed here many times over a number of years and is always our first choice for the lakes. Jonathan and Caroline are great hosts and always make us feel so welcome and at home when we arrive until the (unfortunate) moment that we leave. Rooms, lounges, facilities and breakfast all excellent. The ethos of making the hotel as green as possible while supporting conservation and promoting local businesses is also very welcome. Also, the afternoon teas are fantastic and well worth the experience or two!!

I booked this stay for my husbands birthday. I have stayed at a few spa resorts and to be honest I was left underwhelmed by the experience. We had a 'dirty towel ' in the room which smelt dirty and had stains on it. I did get it changed and the lady was very apologetic. If tgat was it then it would have been fine however the service in the bar was atrocious. We went to the bar on Saturday evening. We had to wait 10 minutes to get served which was fine but then from asking for our cocktail order we had to wait a further 25 minutes. The poor young boy on the bar was new and didn't know how to make cocktails so he had to wait for Leah, to take over. That would have been fine except Leah was flirting with 2 men at the bar from a wedfing party and kept us waiting 25 minutes from placing our order to actually receiving it. Then I know it is petty but when you are buying a passion fruit martini you sort of expect the half passion fruit. But no. Not here. There wasn't any. Neither were there any cocktail straws to drink it - only full sized strangers?? Apart from the dirty towel the room was mediocre. Please can someone from management lie on the sofa bed in room 275? The springs in the mattress have gone and my poor daughter had to endure a night on what was excruciating. I think a bag of spanners would have been more comfortable. Please can the manager just check thus out? Finally as I said I have stayed in a lot of spa resorts and though this is a beautiful location the attention to detail let's it down. No tissues or slippers in the room and we booked for 3 but only had towels and gowns for 2. For the price I expected more sorry.

Lots of positives and would definitely consider staying here again if we were to visit the lakes in the future. The hotel is very well presented, all communal areas are clean, tidy and in great condition. The location is brilliant, you are a short 5-10 minute walk from both Windermere’s main town centre, or the lake front at Bowness. There is a local pub opposite which wasn’t bad either. The building stands impressive at the top of the hill, with a decent sized car park in front, the approach is steep, but it’s easy enough to turn around in. Room was a good size and extremely well equipped with some modern features and luxuries you wouldn’t normally expect. That said, there were a few negatives which could be improved upon. Firstly, we both found the bed extremely uncomfortable, the mattress was firm and unforgiving, only a small notch up from sleeping on a camping bed! Secondly, the room was very hot, and difficult to cool down. We were on the top floor, so quite stuffy due to being up in the roof eves. There is no air conditioning and the windows are fitted with safety catches, so they don’t open wide and there was no way to prop the sash window open. Lastly the walls are thin, and the sound insulation is poor, we had a young family next door so it was quite noisy. A couple of other really minor things to mention, the TV remote didn’t work very well. Think the batteries need changing, we did try others from the light up mirror but this was barely working, so I don’t think these had much juice either and whilst the room had an iron, there was no ironing board - again, nothing major. Overall, a decent stay for the price and we feel it represents good value for money. With some small improvements this could be excellent.

I saw this B&B on Ctrip. I booked it decisively because the recommendation ranks among the top three in the Lake District. After I checked in, I found it was worthy of the name. It’s only 10 minutes away from Windermere Lake and it can provide a swimming pool, but it’s more than a mile away from the room. There are plenty of breakfasts to choose from, and I recommend the first English breakfast, very authentic! There are free parking spaces. The room is quite clean and the layout is very careful. It can be seen that the owner of the house has spent a lot of attention on the details. My boyfriend and I think this is the best after staying in four stores in the UK. It's the little things that count! The owner of the house, John, is very enthusiastic. He will recommend travel routes and speak some Chinese. I would recommend this store if I have friends who travel to the Lake District~
