My boyfriend booked us in for the weekend to celebrate my birthday and for a relaxing weekend after a hard few weeks. I loved every second of it, relaxing and calming and the extra touches made it just fantastic. Greeted with tea and home made cake and made to feel very welcome. Room was fantastic ( room 6 Shute) all... More

We booked this B&B last minute on the evening of our stay but were still treated to a warm welcome and drink and cake on arrival. The hosts were friendly, the rooms quirky and comfy and breakfast tasty. More interesting than your average B&B and definitely worth a visit.

We received a very friendly welcoming from the owners who were very helpful in providing information about the area. The room was quiet and bed was comfortable. The location was very convient. Breakfast was above average.

My partner and I only stayed here for one night, although we wished it had been longer. Rum Doodle is a beautiful B&B nestled in a quiet part of Windermere but close enough to walk to the village centres of Windermere and Bowness, as well as other nearby sights. We had a warm welcome of tea and cake on arrival... More

Me and my boyfriend stayed here two nights in April and I can't fault anything. We was greeted with a delicious glass of wine on arrival and the owners were friendly. We stayed in the shute room and was delighted with the four poster bed which was extremely comfortable! What I really liked was the attention to detail in the... More

If you love quirky & quality then this is for you - such lovely hosts who really couldn't do enough for us. The location is excellent as it sits between Windermere and Bowness-on-Windermere off a quite road just away from the nosier main road - where we discovered much of the competition we looked at when researching our break are...

We chose this B&B as we liked the unusual style of the bedrooms as seen on the website. We weren't disappointed as each room is decorated in a unique way which fits in with the theme of the classic book "The Ascent of Rum Doodle". When we arrived we were greeted by Greg the friendly owner who offered refreshments and... More

Visited for a weekend. Very good welcome inc. home baked cakes. Excellent breakfast, decor and library. Bathroom seemed a bit "tired" and water pressure in the shower was not good enough for us. We stayed in the room closest to the breakfast area/kitchen so a bit noisy in the morning. Quite close to the town centre.

I recently stayed for a couple of nights after searching for a place to stay in The Lakes for a while, eventually I settled on Rum Doodle because of the quirky rooms & I had been looking forward to my visit for weeks, Emma & Gregor didn't disappoint. From the moment I arrived as a single traveller I was made... More
