Bowness is a beautiful place to visit, there is something for everyone. There are really good bus links and there’s the lake cruise as well as being able to travel by boat to Ambleside!! There are lots of walks around the area too! Definitely worth a visit, we’ve been a few times already and would return again👍.

the room was a great size with lovely lake views - those views came at a price as hotel up a very very steep hill.
anyone with mobility issues would struggle - the steepness of the hill was not highlighted on either this website or Ro Hotel website that i could see

Where I stayed was quiet and away from the main road but only a very short walk to the nearest main road bars restaurants gift shops for example.
10 to 15 minute walk down to Bowness on Windermere pier at the pierced the views were great we took one journey on one of the fairies which gave us wonderful views of the surrounding area the boat was extremely clean and very smooth.
Buses were regular every 20 minutes to half an hour it was a bit confusing at some bus stops in different places like Grasmere for example and Ambleside.
The 599 open top bus was nice with a audio tour guide of the surrounding area for your journey.
Overall our stay or was very pleasant we manage to do everything that we plan to do within our five day trip.
The two standout places for me was wast water which is a must see and Rydal water but to be honest it's beautiful whichever place you go to disease just get better and better.

Bowness is a lovely location on Lake Windermere.
Bowness is a lovely location on Lake Windermere. If you like trips by water, it is a good place to visit but a bit lacking in things to do apart from that. There is a good bus service to Kendal or Keswick but leave the car and use public transport. You can go to Ambleside by boat or bus but the town is packed during the summer season.

The view from the window, presentation of the property, decor of the room, bottle of water on arrival. Closeness of township.
The staircase was a challenge and heating could have been better controlled.

The staff and owners all consistently went out of their way to make sure we were comfortable, as well as to help with directions and/or recommendations for walks and restaurants in the Lake District. The breakfast was delicious and healthy, with a variety of choices, and we received very pleasant service from all involved. The hotel building was quaint and beautifully appointed and the large garden was absolutely lovely. A bonus was meeting Alfie and Rosie, the adorable and affectionate resident Border Terriers!
Location was excellent, easily accessible to both Windermere and Bowness on Windermere. The hospitality and friendliness shown by Adam and Symoanne were exceptional. Nothing was too much trouble and their attention to detail was just lovely to see. Accommodation so comfortable, extremely clean and great value for money. Ample free parking and generous continental breakfast included . Would definitely recommend and love to return. ...a great choice!
We have just returned (a party of 7) from a 3 night break in the Sandown. The location of the house for Bowness on Windermere is ideal, more than adequate parking for 4 cars,
All 4 bedrooms with en-suite beautifully decorated and spotlessly clean, the living area, dining room, and fully equipped kitchen were exceptional. From the initial booking to leaving on our last day, the whole experience was faultless; we will definitely return.
