Loved by guests
"We stopped in the suite with its own lounge and patio with hot tub which was fantastic."
"The guest house itself is beautifully presented in an eclectic mix of traditional and modern decor with many tech quirks (we even had a "smart toilet!")."
"Brilliant location, pretty much in between Windermere and Bowness and easy walking to both."
