The room was stunning, I couldn’t have asked for anything better and I had the best night sleep. The guest house is very safe and secure, which made me feel 10x more comfortable on my first solo trip. Barely a 5 minute walk down to the lakeside, with plenty bars and food places to choose from nearby

I’ve been travelling to the Lake District for years, and this is by the far the nicest hotel, best location, best service and comfiest rooms I have ever experienced. If you are at all undecided about where to stay on your next Lake District, and the Hawswater Hotel is available, book it!!

Superb communication pre-stay from hosts. Very clean apartment - cosy lounge, modern kitchen & bathroom, really comfortable bed. This is a lovely place to stay even if you went in the winter months, the whole apartment had homely cosy feel.

Great location, quiet and picturesque. Very handy for visiting Bowness & Windermere. The staff were friendly and accommodating. The room was nice and the very large bed was comfortable. The breakfast was excellent, as was the food in the restaurant. All in all it was a great place to stay and would visit again. Would definitely recommend the Cuckoo Brow Inn.

This property is in a really good location for those wanting to do activities in both Ambleside, and the surrounding areas in the lake district, due to it being less than five minutes away from two bus stops. The house itself was really cozy, and although we only stayed for a week, it really felt like a home. The facilities are great, and the amount of cooking equipment that was available was very welcome! Overall, Acorn Cottage was a really lovely place to stay.

The room was perfect. So beautiful and the bath was amazing. We loved having a little kitchen as well, everything you needed for a short stay. Check in was easy. Location was amazing you could get to everything within walking distance. The owners sent a list of recommended places to eat for dinner and breakfast which really helped! We chose one of their recommendations and the meal was perfect. Thank you so much for a lovely stay! Would definitely stay again.
