This quaint property was within walking distance of Windermere. There is also a bus you can catch just around the corner. Our room was clean and well appointed but only had a bath which my husband struggled with. The breakfast was adequate and served by a bright and friendly lady. Check in could have been better by offering some additional information regarding the bus service to town and maybe some suggestions of things to do in the area or good restaurants to eat at. Overall a great stay, thank you.
