"Reception staff are lovely and very friendly Hotel has recently been upgraded and some work is still ongoing, some more work in the garden by the lake is required. There is a lovely pool, sauna, jacuzzi and steam room which we luckily had complementary access to due to the ongoing works. Be aware that there is normally a charge of £20 per person/ per day Breakfast staff were a little rude and are too busy to clean plates from your table. Freshly cooked breakfast and a choice of cereal, fruit, cakes and toast"

"Great food, lovely staff and great place and location to stay,"

"Beautiful. Elegant. Imposing. The hotel is a stunning place to stay. We got an upgrade room overlooking the lake. Fantastic location in Bowness-on-Windermere and a hot buffet breakfast overlooking the lake in the morning."

"This is our second visit to this hotel. It is well placed for wandering around the area and boat trips. The bedroom was spotless and bed comfy. All staff friendly and attentive. Breakfast was fresh and tasty with plenty of choice "

"Nice Hotel in a great position. Staff were all lovely. Room was clean and comfortable. Only negative was the shower was electric so wasn't very powerful but other than that couldn't fault it."

"Lovely place to stay, Sanjeev, his famil and staff are so welcoming "

"Stayed at Low Wood Bay Resort & Spa for 3 nights and honestly… the thermal journey is the only reason I’d come back. Rooms are pretty meh—dated and not the cleanest. We were in room 166 and there were visible spill stains on the wall (not great), but it did have incredible lake views. It was also super convenient being so close to the elevator to take you to the spa. Read the fine print: access to the main pool (with infrared sauna + eucalyptus steam) is limited to 2.5 hours. Family time is early morning, and adults-only is 5:30–8pm, which felt oddly restrictive and honestly a bit like a bait-and-switch. We ended up booking the thermal journey + massage for $400, which is a lot. That said, the spa itself is next level—one of the best I’ve been to. Outdoor hot tubs, multiple saunas… highlights were the wood-fired sauna, salt sauna, indoor whirlpool, and the “Lost in the Clouds” massage (incredible—should’ve gone longer). Food at the hotel is subpar. We couldn’t get into Blue Smoke because I didn’t book in advance but overall options were limited. Breakfast is included (7:30–10am), but it’s the same spread daily and just okay. £12/day for parking. Location is great—about 10 minutes to Ambleside and Grasmere—but you’ll definitely need a car since there aren’t good dining options on-site. If you enjoy walking, there are beautiful hikes and trails right outside the hotel, which was a big plus. Staff was friendly."

"Staff went above and beyond especially considering I’d arrived a day early ! The manager and reception staff went out of their way to resolve the situation. Restaurant excellent, would recommend."

"Really characterful property with basic but nice clean rooms with amusingly uneven floors upstairs highlighting the age of the property. Excellent breakfast "
