Woodlands Guest House

Superbly located on the leafy avenue that connects the town of Windermere with its sister, Bowness-On-Windermere, Woodlands Guest House is a luxury bed and breakfast style accommodation that oozes with sophistication. The guest house’s decadent rooms are simply perfect for a romantic break away, and whilst family rooms are available, Woodlands does not accept children under five, making this accommodation best suited for couples.

The accommodation lies half way between the town centres of Windermere and Bowness-On-Windermere, with both being within easy walking distance. Bowness Pier for the Windermere Lake Cruises is a 20-minute walk from Woodlands and cruises from here will take you to various towns and attractions around the lake, including Ambleside, Lakeside (for the Lakes Aquarium and the Lakeside & Haverthwaite Railway), Sawrey (for Beatrix Potter’s Hill Top), and Wray Castle.

Accommodation

There are 15 sumptuous guest rooms at Woodlands, individually designed with richly coloured fabrics and an effortless blend of contemporary and classic style furniture. A mixture of single, twin, double, triple, king, and super king sized rooms are available. All of the rooms have en-suite facilities with walk-in showers, with the exception of the Executive Room and the Courtyard Suite, which benefit from superior bathroom facilities that include baths.

All rooms benefit from luxury toiletries from the White Company. In addition, in-room amenities include flat screen televisions with digital channels, free Wi-Fi, a CD player, and a hospitality tray with tea, coffee, hot chocolate, and bottled water. Rooms are generously sized with the Executive Room and the Courtyard Room being the largest. The Courtyard Suite has the added benefit of access to its own private terrace.

Restaurants & Bars

Breakfast is served each morning in the elegant dining room. A self-service breakfast buffet offers a selection of cereals, fresh fruits, pastries, yogurts, and juices. Alternatively, guests can opt for a more filling cooked breakfast. Alongside a full English and full Vegetarian breakfast with a choice of eggs, there are a small selection of specials that include American style pancakes and smoked salmon.

There is a small guest lounge with a bar that serves a selection of alcoholic and hot drinks. There is no restaurant, but the hotel is within easy walking distance of a good number of cafés, pubs, and restaurants in the area.

Additional Facilities and Services

The hotel offers an in room spa treatment service through a local mobile spa practitioner, with Swedish massage, reflexology, and hot stone treatments all available.
