Hotels in Bowness-on-Windermere with Swimming Pools

Beautiful hotel and just a few minutes walk to shops,bars and restaurants. The room named the mews that we stayed in was outstanding. Lovely comfortable bed with very nice bedding and super comfy pillows. The room was huge and had a lovely outside area to sit and relax. Breakfast was very nice as was the setting of the dining room. Staff super friendly especially Emily on reception nothing to much trouble and she made you feel very welcome. Every hotel needs an Emily!! Can’t wait to return .

Old hotel, breakfast is good, the restaurant is also beautiful, the window in the room can see the Lake District, the hotel is on the slope, it is recommended to call a car with large luggage, the train station is only 5 fat

Our views on our visit to The Belsfield Hotel are rather mixed. It is an imposing and impressive building in a fantastic location overlooking the lake. Check in was good with all required information provided. Unfortunately upon entering our room ( room 30 ) we were disappointed as it was not as I expected. I had booked a suite as we have done several times at other hotels . Previously we have found a suite has consisted of a separate room for relaxing with the bedroom attached. On this occasion it was a larger bedroom with a sitting area and small table for two. The hotel’s website does state that a suite may , or may not , have a separate lounge area and so on this occasion I accepted we had drawn the short straw . No issues there . However the website also states the suites offer stunning views and a roll top bath . There was no roll top bath as promised, only an older standard plastic panelled bath. As we are planning on restyling our bathroom assessing a roll top bath in practice was one of the features that swayed our decision to stay here . With regard to the stunning views . When sitting at the table in our room having a coffee before breakfast our view was what appeared to be an old , derelict greenhouse / storage building . Not exactly an appealing view to begin your day . When I mentioned this at check out I was told by the member of staff that another company deals with the website description and so nothing to do with him . A rather strange and dismissive response and not the lasting impression you want when leaving the hotel . Overall the hotel is a very enjoyable place to visit with several areas to relax on the ground floor . Sitting on the terrace overlooking the lake was fantastic and would thoroughly recommend it . A special mention for Lucien who did a fantastic job of providing cocktails and was very knowledgeable and proficient in this . A credit to the hotel . The hotel has so many good points that may , for some , outweigh the negatives around the room but unsure if we would return or recommend.

There is a pool, but there is no pool. The front desk service is not good, I feel that I am too lazy to take care of you, and seeing the child will force the extra bed to charge 35 fat one night, a bit arrogant. The room attendant was very nice and the waiter in the restaurant was very good.

Great find ! Jackie &Steve are the very best of hosts . They go the extra mile to make sure your stay is the best it can be . We had the suite at the top of the house and there are two further rooms to book on the floors below . The owners allowed us to check in early as the room was ready and even offered to carry cases upstairs as it was a couple of flights . Every thing you could need was in the room from ironing board to a corkscrew. Breakfast was great full of goodies . Made for a great start to any day . All the fare you would expect from full English to a veggie option cereal ,orange juice , fruity yogurt and even homemade flapjack to take with you . My birthday fell during our stay and the breakfast table was decorated with a banner and sprinkles and even a candle in my pancake stack and a surprise box of chocolate thank you so much Jackie x Comfy bed made for a great quiet sleep plenty of drawer and hanging space in the room . Definitely recommended .

Very good, the host couple is super enthusiasm

From the moment we arrived we were made to feel special and welcomed. We had drinks in the lounge area and veranda enjoying the spectacular views. The staff were all dressed smartly, and I got the impression they all loved working there. I had booked for my wife’s birthday and had also booked a table in the Henrock restaurant inside the hotel. The food was amazing, delicious and perfectly presented and served. Each delicious course was the lead up to the most amazing dessert I have ever eaten, and it was a rhubarb based dessert, which under normal circumstances is a contradiction where desserts are concerned normally, however this was an explosion of delicious tastes and textures. Would highly recommend this hotel and restaurant and we both hope to return, sooner rather than later.

This is a hotel run by an old couple. The grandpa has a very good attitude. He also helped us bring us to check in and introduce the facilities of the room. The location of the hotel is very good, a few minutes walk to the lake, supermarkets, small shops and restaurants . A parking ticket will be given to you to park in the parking lot diagonally opposite. Breakfast is also provided with a breakfast list for you to check on your own, and put it at the front desk the night before. The room is a bit small. Especially the bathroom, very small. The shower water is very hot and it can't be adjusted well! Arrived at night, plus it was raining again, I didn't find it at first, and then I went around twice and found it according to the navigation and the exterior pictures of the hotel!
