Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Windermere Manor Hotel enjoys a great location close to Lake Windermere, and some guests have found the setting surprisingly quiet despite being near a main road. Guests often appreciate the clean and spacious rooms, especially those in the cottages, and the convenience of leaving the car in the large car park to explore using local buses. While some have mentioned the limited selection of hot food and vegetarian options at breakfast, the hotel generally offers good value and a pleasant experience.

satisfactory stay

breakfast areanice viewprivate areastrange smellthick cobwebscouple minutes
the breakfast area was nice. i sat outside with a nice view of a lake. the area around the hotel is nice and private. i appreciated that there was a kettle and teas and coffees in the room.
the room had a strange smell upon arrival. i do not know if the room had not been aired out properly. there were thick cobwebs in both the bedroom and bathroom. it would have taken only a couple of minutes to dust them.
