Jackson's Bistro

West End, Bowness-on-Windermere, Windermere

One of the best restaurants I have ever been to! Staff were so incredibly polite and welcoming you can tell they are all very passionate about the restaurant and what they do. I had the fillet steak and my boyfriend had the salmon tagliatelle and both were perfection. Not a single thing to fault about this restaurant. We are here on holiday and have our hearts set on this being our to go to place. Outstanding?❤️

Burn How Garden Hotel

Back Belsfield Rd, Bowness-on-Windermere, Windermere

Lovely location and very quiet due to the trees and well maintained garden that surrounds the hotel. Bed was very comfortable with high quality linens and duvet. Breakfast offered a good selection of fruits and cereals with excellent cooked options. Public areas were really pleasant and offer a great view of the garden. Very close to Bowness with good shops and some excellent bars and restaurants. The only negative comment….the bedrooms could do with a little maintenance. Only saw two but repainting and re carpeting would improve things. Really appreciated the friendly and welcoming staff.

Linthwaite House

Crook Ln, Bowness-on-Windermere, Windermere

The attention to detail makes Linthwaite House stand out above other venues. The location and its fabulous grounds make it so memorable. The food is wonderful served by staff who know what they're about. The artwork within the hotel and its grounds is a treat for the eyes. The staff at every level are very professional and attentive without being imposing. The cost of a stay is expensive but so worthwhile.Nearby activities: Within easy access to Bowness, a five minutes taxi or a 20 minute walk but it is a steep walk back.

Stayed here from Tuesday to Thursday with my husband and our dog. Room ok could have been a bit bigger. But had a decent shower and tea and coffee facility in the room. Breakfast was really good lots of choice hot and cold. The only disadvantage was not many parking spaces and it is very steep to get to. But staff very friendly and courteous. Handy for walking down to get the Ricercruise to Ambleside.Nearby activities: Lots of lovely shops near by and plenty of places to eat. Would definitely recommend The Royal Oak. Really friendly staff and the food delicious and plentiful and reasonably priced.

I liked the friendly atmosphere, and particularly appreciated the home made gravy with the Sunday roasts. I have to avoid gluten, corn and yeast which usually means I can't have gravy, but they catered for my needs perfectly, thank you ?Dietary restrictions: Just tell your server your needs and they liaise with the chef. Your meal comes with a little allergy flag on it so you can have confidence that the staff have taken care.
