The staff were great, really helpful, even for stupid things like good local restaurants and things to do. Take the time to talk to them as they are a great guide to the lakes and you can tell they actually really enjoy their job! Breakfast is brilliant, cooked to order with extras etc. Room was a good size, very clean,... More

Stayed here for three nights, unfortunaltely the first night no sleep due to very busy traffic on the main road. We notified the staff and within half an hour we were moved to a lovely room at the back of the hotel, which reduced the noise level immensley. The room isnt huge although the bed was lovely to sleep in.... More

Stayed here for 1 night on a business trip. I work away a lot and have learned never to get my hopes up when staying in guest houses. What a delight . The staff were very friendly and the hotel was immaculately clean . Would definitely stay here again. More

We were in the area for a wedding and decided to make a holiday out of it. Stayed at Woodlands for 3 nights after finding a really good bed-only rate online. The room we stayed in at the back was very comfortable, modern and clean. The ensuite shower room was small but functional. Location is an easy walk to both... More

Just got back from a long weekend at Woodlands, absolutely loved it every minute. We were looked after and felt so special all weekend. The staff who work here are fantastic and an absolute credit to the place. They booked taxis, restaurants and even on one evening the owners drove us into Bowness as we couldn't get a taxi on...

We've just got back from 3 nights at The Woodlands and had an excellent stay. We were made to feel so welcome from the minute we walked in the door on arrival. Kerry could not have done enough for us and gave us some great tips for places to visit in the nearby areas which worked out well for us.... More

We stayed here as part of a small tour of the Lakes, we booked this part of our trip beforehand from the hotel's website, it didn't disappoint. Lovely, friendly staff who went out of there way to help, we both really felt they all cared about our holiday. The room was lovely, we stayed in room 1 on the ground... More

Stayed for 3 nights on the royal wedding weekend and booked the four poster room with its own entrance which made it feel more personal. Hotel has plenty of parking which is an advantage and us roughly 5 mins from Windermere village and 10-15 from bowness. We were lucky with the weather so were happy to walk between the two.... More

Lovely warm welcome, Amy & Kerry were exceptional, breakfast was excellent, our whole stay was faultless. Ideal base for the Lakes, just a short walk to either Bowness or Windermere. Truly fabulous hotel will definitely return in the future. More
