The hotel was fantastic. Beautiful interiors, superbly clean, the food was fabulous and the people who work at the hotel were really friendly, helpful, very welcoming and couldn’t have done more to make our stay any better. It was perfect. The hotel is ideally located for walking into town, and the views from the terrace were superb. 10 out of 10 in every respect.

anyone with mobility issues would struggle - the steepness of the hill was not highlighted on either this website or Ro Hotel website that i could see

Where I stayed was quiet and away from the main road but only a very short walk to the nearest main road bars restaurants gift shops for example.
10 to 15 minute walk down to Bowness on Windermere pier at the pierced the views were great we took one journey on one of the fairies which gave us wonderful views of the surrounding area the boat was extremely clean and very smooth.
Buses were regular every 20 minutes to half an hour it was a bit confusing at some bus stops in different places like Grasmere for example and Ambleside.
The 599 open top bus was nice with a audio tour guide of the surrounding area for your journey.
Overall our stay or was very pleasant we manage to do everything that we plan to do within our five day trip.
The two standout places for me was wast water which is a must see and Rydal water but to be honest it's beautiful whichever place you go to disease just get better and better.

Bowness is a lovely location on Lake Windermere.
Bowness is a lovely location on Lake Windermere. If you like trips by water, it is a good place to visit but a bit lacking in things to do apart from that. There is a good bus service to Kendal or Keswick but leave the car and use public transport. You can go to Ambleside by boat or bus but the town is packed during the summer season.

The view from the window, presentation of the property, decor of the room, bottle of water on arrival. Closeness of township.
The staircase was a challenge and heating could have been better controlled.

The location was just perfect.
The location was just perfect. It was central for us to adventure out and explore the Lake District. It was also an exciting location for relaxation in the evenings. Lots of fine restaurants and pubs to choose from with a lovely holiday atmosphere abounding everywhere.
Regretfully the car ferry was out of order and not available to us. That was a bit of a nuisance as our touring plans had envisaged that being available. None the less we had a fabulous holiday and were not overly put-out by the loss.

It is so easy going in Bowness we try to come here as often as we can. There’s something to do for everyone young and old. We have a dog now and he’s so relaxed here many places are dog friendly. Bars and restaurants brilliant especially Italians on the Main Street. Our favourite place can’t wait to come back

I recently had the pleasure of staying at The Westbourne, and I must say it was a fantastic experience. The location of the hotel couldn't have been better – it was so close to both the lake and the town, making it incredibly convenient for exploring the area. There was a bus stop as well right outside the hotel. The manager was so friendly and took the time to provide us with valuable recommendations for places to visit in the area. There was free parking available at the hotel as well.
The hotel is in the heart of Bowness-on-Windermere just set back off the Main Street and just seconds away from all the local amenities, pubs, restaurants. Thought it was a really nice touch emailing recommendations of places to eat, drink, visit on our stay. Very helpful if you have never visited the lakes before. Rooms were immaculate and was well worth the money. A little hidden gem. Definitely will be booking again.
Cannot say enough good things about our stay at Craigholme! Our hosts were wonderful, even upgrading us to the suite room at no extra cost! The room was very comfortable and breakfast was superb. Our host provided us with great suggestions for meals and things to do. If you are in Bowness on Windermere, stay at Craigholme!
The location was spectacular, very quiet yet only minutes walking distance from the lake and shops etc... So much choice for food and entertainment. We chose to eat out rather than have breakfast at the hotel, this was only because we were up and out. We are already thinking of staying again next year! Loved the place.
Absolutely fantastic staff. Particular thanks to Mike who was an absolute star.
Ladies on reception very helpful and breakfast staff always making sure everything ran smoothly.
Hotel was lovely, very glad to have paid for Lake view.
Would definitely return.
Excellent location, rite in the heart of Bowness on Windermere. Room was well laid out and had everything we needed for our stay. Great selection at breakfast and very friendly and efficient staff. Would highly recommend the Angel Inn.
The hotel was handy for Bowness on windermere.However steep hill to climb.And really dog friendly .However there was no bins to dispose of dog poo.Restaurant and bar had not enough choices.The staff were really helpfull and friendly.
Wonderfully spacious room; excellent WiFi; superlatively friendly proprietors Clare and Robert; great breakfast; easy walk to town centre and lake. F-35 flypasts over Lake Windermere from RAF base to the north an unexpected bonus!
Breakfast was good and piping hot with a nice selection of cereals and fruit segments. Location-wise the hotel is a short walk from all the local pubs, restaurants and Lake Windermere. With on-site parking it ticked all the boxes
Beautiful hotel in a prime location, lovely interior, very helpful, friendly staff, food was absolutely gorgeous, will definitely recommend The Belsfield Hotel and we will definitely book to stay again.
Friendly b&b 5 minutes walk from the centre of Bowness on Windermere.
Nigel & Karen were the perfect hosts, very comfortable and clean accommodation.

Lovely hotel, great location, But looking a little shabby, could do with better coffee making facilities like a coffee machine in room but the cereal great stay
