I had a lot of fun at Windermere, and what increased my enjoyment was staying in this apartment. It made me feel like I was at home. It was very clean and the smell of the place was beautiful. And the most beautiful thing is its very excellent location. The hotel owners do not neglect to provide everything that makes the stay special, from providing information about the places of events around the lake and from... Taxi numbers, and recommendations for special restaurants. Thank you for making my stay in Windermere unforgettable ❤️.

The room was decorated lovely, very clean and spacious. The location is very perfect as it’s close to a lot of places. Clear communication with Nick, no issues at all, they even send an email when you book with a ton of recommendations of places to eat and activities which was really appreciated as we visited a few. Overall, a fantastic stay at the The Whitehouse in Windermere!

Easy self check in. Fantastic location for Bowness. Carpark is handy as can go through back exit to the property. Room 8 very nicely decorated and comfy bed. A bit noisy late at night from pub behind. Will definitely stay again.

Lovely little hotel - rooms are cosy and decorated modernly, beds are really comfy. Great location for a great price too, with it being a 2 minute walk to the lake front and right in the middle of Windermere, with a short walk to restaurants, shops and tourist locations.

Stayed recently for a night as part of our honeymoon. The location is amazing as so close to central Bowness and the nearby public car park allows multi-night stays. The room was beautiful, nice decor, massive wetroom with lovely shower. King sized bed was comfortable and the radio being on when we checked in gave it a homely feel. Would happily return and stay longer

We had a beautiful stay in Room 12 this weekend and was so pleased with it! Access to the room was so easy and secure. The room itself is absolutely stunning. The decor was the perfect cosy spot for a weekend away. They had everything you could need and impressively clean. The location couldn’t be any better. You are quite literally in the centre of everything, yet you don’t feel all the hustle and bustle of outside though which is great. The owners sent us a list of places we could eat and drink which was an amazing idea! It took all the effort away of searching for somewhere. Will definitely be returning!

I had booked here for a last minute one night stay with my partner and our friend in January. We loved it so much we extended our stay for another night! We stayed in room 6 which had a king size bed and a separate area divided with double doors with a single bed which was a fab layout. The room was spotless and decorated very tastefully. Comfy bed, all the amenities we could need including tea, coffee, biscuits and even fresh milk both days! The hosts were in regular contact from the point of booking with tips and recommendations. We were very well looked after and will definitely be returning in the summer ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Just enjoyed a truly wonderful stay in Room 12. Decor, just beautiful. Bed, sooo comfortable! Location, super central. Communication throughout, great. Loved the little details and touches too, including fresh milk in the fridge and, a bottle of Prosecco on arrival. Would definitely recommend The White House and would love to return sometime.

Such a lovely hotel, we really enjoyed our stay for our anniversary. Immaculate and perfect location. Loved how quirky it was with the open shower and bath in the main bedroom! Would definitely come back.

We had Room 2, overall it is extremely well located.. you couldn't get more central. A unique refurbished cottage smartly designed to provide everything you need for a short trip/weekend away.

We really enjoyed our stay at The White House. It's very tastefully and thoughtfully put together. Such a perfect location too. The owners were really helpful and quick to respond. We appreciated the restaurant recommendations too. Our only observation was that the room could do with a comfy seat to perch after a day out walking!

We stayed in room 4 and it was absolutely perfect. Gorgeous shower/bathroom, comfy bed and small fridge and coffee machine. Location wise you really couldn’t get much better for being right in the centre. We parked in the car park they recommended which was a 2 minute walk away and cost about £8 for 24hrs.

Great place to stay in the center of Stow. If i was to be picky my only complaint is that the pillows are not especially comfortable. Just be aware that the bar closes at 10pm which surprised me but so did all the other ones in town, so that was nothing specific to The King Arms. The included breakfast was great!

Me and my fiancée stayed at the White House for 2 nights. Perfect location in the heart of Bowness. Although no parking at the hotel, the public car park is a short walk away and reasonably priced. Arriving around 7pm after a long drive, I struggled to find the room, I was room 12 but for some reason I thought it said 15 on the email, I called the number on the email and was answered immediately and directed to my room, thanks for that. Room easily accessed by the code sent on the email over a week before check in. Once inside the room, it was finished to a high standard and felt very modern and comfortable, the grade 2 listed building still has its features, such as the interior stone wall which was a nice touch. The bathroom was spacious, however not much storage for toiletries but we made it work. Also, a lack of storage for clothes, there is a clothes rail with hangers, but if you pack like my fiancée, expect to leave most in your case. The copper bath is a great addition to the bathroom, and is large enough to lounge around in if that’s your thing, made even better with a bottle of complimentary Prosecco, I am guessing this is the reason for plastic Prosecco glasses, as they can be used in the tub with minimal risk of injury! Also on arrival there is fresh milk in the fridge, chilled water, tea, coffee and biscuits. I’m sure I saw hot chocolate as well. On the first night after going out for dinner and drinks we got back late, the room felt cold, I tried to alter the thermostat and it was locked. I put it off until the morning at which point I could not tolerate being cold any longer. I contacted nick/Grant and was granted access to the thermostat. This was perfect as I got the room to a comfortable temperature. I also mentioned I couldn’t get my towels dry, Nick and Grant gave me directions on how to control the towel rail in the bathroom, however, it didn’t seem to work, so I was offered fresh towels. I didn’t take them up on this but it’s nice to know I could have if required, nothing was too much trouble when I contacted them. Also note in the toilet which is a small room, there is no radiator, with the extractor in the ceiling this room gets extremely cold. Next door, room 11 I believe , the door noise is very noticeable when they are entering and leaving, but other than that the room was quiet, no exterior noise or traffic noise and we had a good sleep both nights. Bars, restaurants, fast food, and supermarkets are all within walking distance, it is literally central to everything you will require. The Windermere cruises are roughly a 5-10 minute walk, meaning you can leave your car and access other nearby towns or points of interest with ease. We will definitely recommend this hotel, although it does have some minor negatives, it has many many positives and if we return to Bowness it will be at the top of our list, thanks for having us Nick/Grant.

Very happy we booked the white house for our stay in windermere. Super location, very close to the lake, restaurants and car park. Clean room, with a kettle, fridge and iron. A safe place to stay. Only issue was the toilet did not flush properly.

We stayed at The White House for a last minute trip to the Lake District, and I’m very glad we did! The room itself was absolutely beautiful, stunning interiors and spotless. I especially loved the double shower! Location was fab right in the centre of Bowness close to the lakeside. The hosts sent a list of recommendations for restaurants, breakfast and local walks which was a lovely touch. 10/10 would recommend to a friend and would definitely stay again!
