Good location for Windermere, excellent rooms with good beds and showers, use of the pool and sauna included - these were nice but a bit small for the number of people staying there, some good art work too

Traffic always snarls up towards Ambleside, so be patient it does clear.

The cafe at Brantford does amazing brunch and for those Beatrix fans, Hill Top is great. The pub though is something else, the landlord is a treasure chest of information.

The countryside is absolutely stunning.
The countryside is absolutely stunning. Luckily for us the weather was beautiful just the right temperature for us and the sun was shining. We picked a good time of year as in the summer I would imagine it would be extremely busy. It's like every other old town narrow streets needing a bit of navigating. We visited the Beatrix Potter Museum which was great. We drove to Ravenglass and went on a steam train. Plenty of lovely cafes and restaurants in both Windermere and Bowness.

Windermere was a lovely little town and great as a home base to see other areas around the Lake District. There are many Bars, Restaurants and Cafes around the area great to start the day or finish the day with a Pint. Many beautiful walks around for all fitness levels. Highly recommend these cafe's eateries.. Toast, HomeGround, The Crafty Baa and The Elleray does a great Chicken Burger!

So much to see with excellent bus service that can take you virtually anywhere. There are boats that take scenic cruises to various spots around the lake. Wish I had more time because the variety of places to visit I would say can take at least a week.

Windermere is very small and pretty, but you're better off going to Bowness if you want all that *plus* the views. Windermere was quieter than Bowness though, which makes it a great place to stay over if you're travelling to more touristy places nearby in the daytime. There is an amazing gift shop in Windermere on the corner, and the Tapas restaurant looked great, even though we didn't get time to eat there. The park on Park Road was lovely for dogs and kids, and big enough to have a proper walk around.

An average selection of shops and bars/restaurants.
An average selection of shops and bars/restaurants. Bowness-on-Windermere is approx 1 mile away, this has a better choice of bars/shops/restaurants. The bus station in Windermere is located near the main road entrance. Bus trips are currently £2 per person each way (April 2024) and we decided to travel by bus to Keswick and enjoy the stunning scenery, and no expensive parking charges. Will definitely be going back to Windermere.
Beautiful building, very comfortable, clean rooms and hotel was very quiet (not disturbed by any other sounds). Lovely view of the garden and bedroom was spacious. Loved the kitchenette facilities as there is no restaurant so we needed to sort our own breakfast etc. Location was amazing! 5 minute walk to Windermere town centre and 35 minute walk down the main road to Bowness on Windermere. We got the bus back from here on one of the days and the route drops your right at the end of the road. overall a great stay
The location is ideal. It’s about 5-minute walk from the Windermere railway station. It’s situated adjacent to the business area and easily accessible to almost everything, and meanwhile hidden in a quiet neighborhood and facing a park with an amazing view, and not to mention the tiny but beautiful garden leading to its doorstep. It’s a perfect combination of convenience and tranquility.
Excellent accommodation, very good size, very modern and exceptionally clean.
Great location with good access to ambleside, bowness and windermere.
Owner left wine and chocolates which was a nice welcome treat and even dog treats.

Richard and Ada plus all the staff work to high standards to give their customers the highest standard of hospitality. Breakfast is fantastic with lots of choices. Rooms were Immaculate. Hotel is perfectly placed for Windermere and Bowness on the main road with parking either on site or within 100 yards. We will return in the near future.
Had 2 rooms booked at the hotel, Room 15 Double Room amd Room 17 Family Suite. Both rooms were lovely, Room 17 Family Suite was really spacious even with tje aofa bed made up. Location is excellent, just past the bars, shops of Windermere and 20 min walk to Bowness. Bus stops outside hotel. Breakfasts lovely especially the poached eggs :)
Lovely building and the room was superb. Lots of attention to detail with furnishings. Bed huge and super comfy. Staff were great and Ian was fantastic with us as we arrived a little early but Ian let us have our room so we could go out around Windermere without having to come back to check in. This was much appreciated.
Absolutely everything about this property was perfect. It’s perfectly located between Windermere and Bowness on Windermere making it easily accessible on both sides. It’s a couple of minutes from bus stop. The rooms are spacious and very English. The people running the place are really friendly, helpful and cheerful.
I like everything about this accommodation and I had a pleasant stay here in Windermere. The hosts were nice and knowledgeable (I appreciate all the travel tips given) and they had everything I needed. Love the daily service and the little fridge with cold water and milk! The cookies were also lovely!
Unfortunately the cover photo of the fabulous jacuzzi overlooking Lake Windermere is £40 extra! Not made clear and anything other than continental breakfast is also extra ! Other than that a fabulous hotel in a great setting
The location is superb. The hotel itself is filled with character and charm, yet with every modern convenience. The staff were some of the most hardworking we’ve ever come across. Tom and Emma are both amazing.
This was the fourth time we have stayed at Cragwood and we love it. The grounds of the hotel are beautiful, the room is spacious and had a view of Windermere. The cream tea is exceptional.
The spa. Well worth staying at the hotel and paying for it. The corridors are a little dated but the rooms are fantastic. Great location….very close to Windermere and Ambleside/Bowness.
Warm welcome from the host, great service continued throughout the stay, great decor, cosy setting, delicious food, perfectly situated between Windermere and Bowness on Windermere
