Bowness-on-Windermere Hotels with Airport pickup service

Went here for just an overnight on our wedding anniversary.We are in our 70's (just in my wife's case) and celebrating 23 years of a 'second chance' Room was perfect with large balcony, enabling us to make the most of a day of sunshine. Chocolates and wine left for us and everything spotless. From checking in to dining through advice on the area to checking out - staff were perfect in their attention. Had table as requested next to windows, for the view, for dinner Restaurant service also could not be faulted. In Ireland for a wedding on our anniversary next year but will need another visit here well before then.

We stayed in one of the individual 'chalet' style twin room bungalows lining the drive to the main house for 4 nights. These rooms offer a lot of privacy and are quiet with your own front door entrance and windows and balcony with table and chairs overlooking the very pretty and well tended gardens. The beds and bedding were really comfortable, you could control the radiators to your preferred temperature and the bathroom, whilst small, was functional with plenty of hot water and good quality towels. It was really helpful to have allocated parking right outside and all the chalets have this. It's a very short walk to the restaurant/reception. The small bar and restaurant is traditional in style and nicely laid out with many tables offering views of the beautiful gardens. There are plenty of cooked breakfast options and the produce and cooking is exceptional. We ate in the restaurant on two evenings on a DB&B rate. Lovely meals - the lamb cutlets and sea bass fillets in particular were knockout. As others have commented the staff and service is exceptional. From arrival to departure you are made to feel like a very valued guest and nothing is too much trouble from the incredibly efficient and friendly team. There are many other much higher end hotels who could learn customer service from the Burn How. Only a 5 minute walk down the hill to the lake and nearby shops and restaurants, just added to the benefits of staying here. We would definitely book this hotel again if visiting the area, and would highly recommend.

The best hotel in the town! It has a big view, good facilities and is relatively new! Looking out from the window is like a painting! The bed is super big and very comfortable! The service is also very good

Our views on our visit to The Belsfield Hotel are rather mixed. It is an imposing and impressive building in a fantastic location overlooking the lake. Check in was good with all required information provided. Unfortunately upon entering our room ( room 30 ) we were disappointed as it was not as I expected. I had booked a suite as we have done several times at other hotels . Previously we have found a suite has consisted of a separate room for relaxing with the bedroom attached. On this occasion it was a larger bedroom with a sitting area and small table for two. The hotel’s website does state that a suite may , or may not , have a separate lounge area and so on this occasion I accepted we had drawn the short straw . No issues there . However the website also states the suites offer stunning views and a roll top bath . There was no roll top bath as promised, only an older standard plastic panelled bath. As we are planning on restyling our bathroom assessing a roll top bath in practice was one of the features that swayed our decision to stay here . With regard to the stunning views . When sitting at the table in our room having a coffee before breakfast our view was what appeared to be an old , derelict greenhouse / storage building . Not exactly an appealing view to begin your day . When I mentioned this at check out I was told by the member of staff that another company deals with the website description and so nothing to do with him . A rather strange and dismissive response and not the lasting impression you want when leaving the hotel . Overall the hotel is a very enjoyable place to visit with several areas to relax on the ground floor . Sitting on the terrace overlooking the lake was fantastic and would thoroughly recommend it . A special mention for Lucien who did a fantastic job of providing cocktails and was very knowledgeable and proficient in this . A credit to the hotel . The hotel has so many good points that may , for some , outweigh the negatives around the room but unsure if we would return or recommend.

From the moment we arrived we were made to feel special and welcomed. We had drinks in the lounge area and veranda enjoying the spectacular views. The staff were all dressed smartly, and I got the impression they all loved working there. I had booked for my wife’s birthday and had also booked a table in the Henrock restaurant inside the hotel. The food was amazing, delicious and perfectly presented and served. Each delicious course was the lead up to the most amazing dessert I have ever eaten, and it was a rhubarb based dessert, which under normal circumstances is a contradiction where desserts are concerned normally, however this was an explosion of delicious tastes and textures. Would highly recommend this hotel and restaurant and we both hope to return, sooner rather than later.

There is a pool, but there is no pool. The front desk service is not good, I feel that I am too lazy to take care of you, and seeing the child will force the extra bed to charge 35 fat one night, a bit arrogant. The room attendant was very nice and the waiter in the restaurant was very good.

Very good, the host couple is super enthusiasm

The scenery around the hotel is very beautiful, right by the lake. It takes three minutes to walk to Peter Rabbit World and 10 minutes to walk to the cruise ship terminal. It is highly recommended.
