Lakes Hotel & Spa
About this property
Our hotel is perfectly situated with views of Lake Windermere, just a short stroll from the bustling village centre of Bowness-on-Windermere and the boats that travel the length of Windermere, making it easy to visit Ambleside, Brockhole, Wray Castle and Lakeside without a car.
The Lakes Hotel & Spa was previously called the Burnside Hotel & Spa.
The hotel has some of the best on-site facilities in the area, half of the rooms with hot tubs on private balconies, an on-site spa with poolside seating and a bar, stylish restaurant and cocktail bar, bike hire, wakesurfing and paddleboading.
Our concierge has many planned walks that you can take straight from the hotel gates.
In the Lake District, The Lakes Hotel & Spa is 30 minutes’ drive from the M6. Shops, boutiques and restaurants in the centre of Bowness are a 2-minute walk away. Windermere train station is 10 minutes away and we can arrange for our Bentley to collect you from the station. With everything on our doorstep there’s no need for a car.
This is our guests' favourite part of Bowness-on-Windermere, according to independent reviews.
Couples in particular like the location – they rated it 9.5 for a two-person trip.
