    The White Rose is everything you would like & need in a b and b. Friendly, very clean, and every need catered for !! The hosts have thought of every little thing to make your stay a highly relaxed experience! Clean as a whistle too ! Grahams obvious love of the area here lives in is very noticeable in his knowledge of what to and where to go. WE'LL BE BACK !!

    Didn't appear to have a lock on window. Very basic decor in the room.

    Great location. Friendly, helpful hosts. Comfy, clean beds and rooms. Tea tray had a good range of hot drinks and biscuits. Free parking was available opposite the accommodation. Reasonable rates.

    Appreciate that the property is old, so some may find a little chilly if it is cold outside as we were there during heavy snow.

    Excellent host who took time and trouble to make sure we were comfortable and had all we needed, giving good information about the local area. The breakfast was very good, tasty using good ingredients and well presented. Excellent location, around a 10 min walk from Windermere railway station.

    Shower wasn't hot enough for us. Need biscuits on the tray for people every day to have with tea, coffee etc. Needs a luggage holder for putting case on. Apart from that no complaints.

    Owners are very friendly, informative and helpful. Alison is also an artist and her watercolour cards are beautiful. Location is very good for transport and there is a car park over the road. We didn't have breakfast as we go out early for buses and walks. But I'm sure it would have been good. Graham is very funny and helpful.

    On street free car parking can be a bit challenging - there is a nearby paid car park but I was able to park in a nearby street when I couldn't find a space outside the guesthouse. I can't comment on breakfast as I chose not to pay for it.

    Great location - only a few minutes walk to the main shopping strip (or up to the train station/Orrest Head hike) but a bit quieter than being on the main road. (Sainsburys and Coop nearby for groceries and incidentals). Free wifi was fast and reliable. Clean and cosy room with plenty of power sockets and good lighting. I was on the second floor (the second storey stairs are quite steep so beware heavy luggage) but it was lovely to be able to open the windows for fresh air. The ensuite is very compact but met all my requirements - hooks and rails for hanging towels etc in spite of the small space. Appreciated the wardrobe and places to hang wet or hiking gear. The coffee/tea and milk options were pretty comprehensive (never seen soy and oat milk alternatives in a guesthouse/BnB before!). Clear instructions from the host for getting in/out of the property.
