    bowness get very busy at peak times... still a nice a place to visit. seeing and feeding the swans and geese was nice .... just be aware there where lots of rats round there getting the food from the floor. Alot of transport from here, boat trips and lots off buses. Go on the mountain goat trip takes you all over the lakes in a mini coach with a guided tour. A fantastic place to eat is broadwalk bar and grill... you have to pre book to get in, if you manage to go get seated upstairs and ask for tubbs .. a waiter at broadwalk what a fantastic bloke, he is so funny, always cracking jokes to you and the kids.

    A great place to visit, our best tip if you have a bus pass pay for the whole day to park and use the excellent bus service which saves paying for parking in each town you visit. Buses run every 20 minutes to Grassmere via Windmere and Ambleside.

    2nd time in Bowness on Windermere.

    2nd time in Bowness on Windermere. Lovely shops, and eateries. Lake Windermere has boat trips to Ambleside. It was a pleasant trip there and back though got quite windy. There are a lot of other things to do but we were only there a couple of days. We had Spanish Tapas in Bodego and the food was delicious and also we had great pub grub in The Royal Oak.

    Very nice location, and an excellent spot from which to explore the entire Lake District. The town itself has great shops, restaurants and pubs, as well as cruises, boat hire and some gems like the wonderful market, crazy golf and pitch and putt.

    Everything was lovely, the couple who run it Julie and Russell were very welcoming, room was very comfortable and clean, breakfast was beautiful, last minute booking as our previous hotel was not as expected, we definitely made the best decision to rebook here it made our holiday to the lake district much better, close to pubs, restaurants and some shops, about a 10 minute walk of the lake, it was a really lovely stay.

    Everything at this hotel is amazing, the security guy on the gate knew my name when we arrived as did the concierge, the glass of prosecco on checking in was perfect, unlimited use of the spa facility was perfect, room upgrade was amazing and the complimentary use of the Bentley when wearing heels is amazing! We had the best time, I've also stayed here before and it was the same then!
