Beautiful room and very clean and comfortable. We were allowed to leave our car when we arrived early so we could go out and explore before coming back to check in. The staff were really friendly and overall we had a great stay.

Lovely stay at the Westbourne, we were attending a wedding in the Lakes and stayed for 2 nights. The en suite was spotless, comfortable bed and pillows. We had breakfast on the second morning which was great value and quality. Really is great value for money, with friendly staff and an easy check in experience. Would definitely recommend.

I loved the free parking so close to the building. The room was very nice and quiet, which I appreciated. It is also just a short walk from little shops, restaurants, and the lake, which is great.
