The hotel is located in a lovely area within a short walk to Windermere's high street, offering comfy rooms with a bonus afternoon tea at no extra cost. The service provided, including housekeeping and a welcome drink, was exceptional. However, the dining experience, while varied, could have been more flavorsome.
