Each of the elegantly styled rooms all have an en suite shower with towels, hairdryers and toiletries. All rooms have a Smart TV, tea and coffee facilities and a teddy bear.

Bowness-on-Windermere offers boat trips on the lake and the World of Beatrix Potter. Each town has a varied selection of excellent restaurants. The popular towns and villages of Grasmere and Ambleside are both within 15-20 minutes’ drive or bus journey. Denehurst Guest House is a 15-minute walk from Windermere railway station.

+ From booking right through to our departure, our hosts could not have been more helpful. Nothing was a bother to them. The breakfast was delicious, with all needs catered for; the room was very comfortable, with everything we needed; and the hosts were always ready to help, without interfering. A wonderful holiday in a beautiful place!
− We liked everything - but if mobility is a problem for you, you might not want to stay on the top floor, as we did.
