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 hotel, we had room 8 seperate from the hotel, decent size, very clean,comfortable bed would definitely stay again. Great location to all the amenities of Bowness.
very lovely staff, ideal location as it is a short walk from plenty of shops and places to eat but is in a quiet area far from the main road
clean and very comfy bed, facilities are all good
Great hotel in a great location,wonderful staff great breakfast,clean rooms. Perfect for touring Windermere and local attractions,bars and restaurants all within walking distance.
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.
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.
Lovely guest house, situated in a quiet part of the lake district however is on 4mins drive to the busy town
Staff were so friendly and helpful
Place was lovely and clean
Would definitely recommend
Having stayed at the Westbourne a number of years ago (twice) it did not disappoint on revisiting. We wouldn’t hesitate to return, the room was warm and comfortable and the breakfast was very good. All in all a nice place to stay.
The hosts are wonderful. Friendly and helpful. They make a great breakfast. The facilities are very nice. The location is excellent. Within walking distance of the Bowness-On-Windermere high street but in a quiet area. I would definitely stay there again. Highly recommended.
