“Stayed for a couple of nights here in Windermere. Cathy & Tim were excellent hosts, very friendly and helpful. The guest house was absolutely spotless and had great facilities. Breakfast was spot on; simple but high quality and local produce was used. Location is ideal: quiet and everything is within walking distance. I highly recommend this guest house to anyone looking to stay in Windermere!”
