Excellent position in Bowness, an easy walk to all amenities. Courteous helpful staff, a great breakfast each morning.

Lovely hotel we stayed in the family room with a balcony. Very spacious and clean. Loved the location of being outside of the town so it was quiet but a 2minute walk to everything. The breakfast was lovely, especially the eggs Benedict. Parking was free and had a space for every room. We really enjoyed our stay and would come back.

Hotel is set in really nice grounds and has really great potential. Our room was very dated which wasnt too bad. However there were patches of mold throughout the room and the ironing board cover had mold on it. The room must have been very damp as the bedside lamps were rusty as were the radiators. Dead flies on the window in the bathroom- think this was missed on previous clean. Lipstick on the bathmat. Parking was great and its a short walk into Bowness.
5.0
The entrance was a little difficult to find. Since it's on the top of a hill, I was a little tired after going to eat and buy souvenirs. It was nice to be able to relax.
2.5
We stayed in the tree house - room 6 and it was great. Spacious and clean. Lovely balcony to sit on.
Breakfast is great ..continental and then your choice of hot breakfast so something for everyone. With only a 7 minute walk to the lake is perfect location.
We will definitely stay here again when we visit next year

Excellent from start to finish

Parking was outside which was very nice to have. No noises like you would expect from hotel rooms and landings, bedrooms were individual units so much quieter, relaxing and gave a feel of freedom.
Breakfast was fabulous as was service. Showers were powerful.
Only small downside were that rooms are in need of an update but not a problem.
Thank you all at Burn How our stay was perfect!

Had a garden room - very private and quiet, no view of Lake Windermere due to height of trees. In general, very clean and well equipped. Staff very friendly. Good choice for breakfast. Nothing too much trouble.

We loved everything about our stay at this hotel. The room was clean, decorated nicely and spacious. Because it’s not part of a main ‘hotel’ it’s like your own little holiday apartment. Every staff member we came across from check in to breakfast service was absolutely lovely, friendly and professional. The hotel is set in beautiful grounds and a short walk to the main area. We will definitely be booking in again!

When we checked in room was extremely warm. Contacted front desk and found out towel warmer was left on high. Also no ventilation or cooling available . Hard to sleep in warm room with no fan or ventilation. Was able to open window with no screen to prevent bugs from entering. Also the window that was open was available for the public to see into our room. We also left from door open with no screen to try and cool things down from towel warmer . Another room was not offered during our stay after letting the staff know of the situation. Breakfast was excellent. Property and garden were nice also.

The property is quiet and beautiful. The walk through the secret garden is pretty magical, with accommodating rabbits to accompany you. No kidding - we named him Dave.

Very comfortable hotel with lovely gardens, and good breakfast. Staff were friendly, parking plentiful, and walkable to Lake Windermere and the shops/restaurants in Bowness on Windermere. Enjoyed the birds inhabiting the gardens - get a window table for breakfast to enjoy the birds while you eat.

We stayed at the property for 3 days. We got an upgrade when we arrived.
Staff couldn't have been more friendly, made us feel so welcome.
Afternoon tea and cake served each day.
Breakfast beautiful, so many options. So many wonderful places to visit. Great running routes.

A hidden gem, on arrival some areas feel a little dated this all helps with the ambience so don’t be put off. Lovely ladies very helpful at breakfast, choice amazing and well cooked. We stayed in one of the chalets lots of room and nice new bathroom, also liked you had your own marked parking space close to room.

We had a lovely night here. The hotel is really clean with lots of character & beautiful gardens. Our room was cosy, the bed was really comfy & the shower was hot! Plenty of teas& coffees to use & good quality toiletries too.
Breakfast was amazing with plenty of choice of hot food cooked to order & a good assortment of cereals., yogurts & top quality fresh fruits. Thecstaff were all very friendly & helpful.
It was a 5 minute walk into Bowness or the lake.
Can definitely recommend this hotel.

I would recommend this hotel - the location (just a stones throw away from the lake), the staff were so so friendly and alway smiling and breakfast was amazing all freshly prepared. The property is an old building which may put people off but it was clean and well looked after
