The Westbourne

We had a lovely weekend away for my birthday. This is the 3rd time we’ve been to Westbourne and it was fantastic. We would never stay anywhere else when visiting Bowness on Windermere. The owners are so friendly and nothing is too much trouble. We stayed in the cottage which was spotless. The bed is so comfy - and after a long walk, it was just what was needed, along with the fabulous jacuzzi bath. We have previously stayed in rooms in the main house which are also of the same standard as the cottage- just without the luxury of the jacuzzi bath. I am not a big fan of cooked breakfast and am very picky when I do have it. However the breakfast at Westbourne is of a high standard with high quality ingredients cooked perfectly. Goes without saying that we would highly recommend staying at The Westbourne when visiting Windermere. Perfect ⭐️

Excellent area for the shopping centre and down to the lake. Bed for me was comfy. Lots of storage space. Good parking. Peacefull Good tea tray, nice toiletries, fluffy towels . Polite host.

Great location, about 100m from the main road through Bowness. The pictures provided don't really show how close the main street is. The marina is just a short walk down the main street also. Room was comfortable and clean. There was an opening window, which was appreciated. Breakfast was plentiful and very nice. Staff were very pleasant. Private parking was a bonus.

This was our 4th stay at the Westbourne, this time we stayed in the cottage, it was lovely....comfortable, clean, nice and warm and the jacuzzi bath was great! Breakfast is always very nice and the owners are very welcoming even when we are late! Nothing is too much trouble. It's always a pleasure to stay, and we'll certainly be back again in the future. It's close to all the amenities in Bowness but far enough away to be peaceful and quiet.

We've just returned from a 2 night stay. Convenient location to walk into Bowness centre, with the first pub / shop being around a minute or 2 away then you could stroll down into the centre & lake front. There are lake cruises which we took & went from Bowness to Ambleside. The area has plenty of lovely shops, bars & restaurants. It's only about 1 mile into Windermere which we visited also. Breakfast was pre ordered the evening before & served to you, but they always asked if you wanted more of things so you could if you wanted any. We stayed for our anniversary & I'd contacted them prior to ask if they could arrange a bottle as a surprise on arrival, which they did just the one I'd asked for & reasonably priced. I'd booked a small double but on arrival they informed us they'd given us a larger room as it was available, which was very much appreciated. There was also a comfortable lounge with some games in & an iron / board although we didn't use this area. The room had tea / coffee making facilities. The staff were all very friendly & approachable. There's no reason why I wouldn't stay here again or recommend it to anyone.
