*8.4* World of Beatrix Potter: only 4 minutes away! (850 feet by foot)
We booked a room with a shared bathroom, but got given a room with a private bathroom, which was great. The location was exceptional - 5min walk to Lake Windermere. The bed was comfy. The breakfast was so nice, you get a full English. The staff were all very friendly. All in all, a very well thought-out establishment.

United KingdomStaff were very nice and friendly. The bed was so comfy that we didn't want to get out of it! The bathroom was shared however we never competed to use it as we were only sharing it with one other room. It was unoccupied whenever me or my partner wanted to use it. The washbasin in the room itself was a convenient addition. Breakfast was very tasty and filling.
