Review summary

Based on recent reviews

The Cranleigh Boutique offers beautifully arranged rooms with exceptional bathrooms, often featuring jacuzzi baths and TVs. Many guests appreciate the convenient location, just a short walk from Bowness centre and Lake Windermere. Some have noted noise from nearby establishments on weekend nights, though the hotel provides earplugs; overall, the Seductive and Passion Suites are particularly favored for their decor, space, mood lighting, special touches like underfloor heating, and complimentary amenities, and views of Windermere and the hills.

poor soundproofing noise level

the breakfast was great (especially the pancakes!). i found the staff very friendly and helpful throughout my stay.

I was disappointed by the noise level. I could hear everything from the neighboring rooms. earplugs were provided, but the noise still impacted my sleep (it was very frustrating). i think they should focus on better soundproofing in the rooms.

good breakfast helpful staff hot room live music

The breakfast choice had a range of options! The menu offered very good breakfast options. The staff were very friendly and helpful.

The room was too hot. A fan was provided, HOWEVER, i was kept awake until after 1.30 am due to the pub across the way having live music on. The live music should have stopped at 12 but it went on until 1am.
