Tail of two sides. Plus - perfect location, staff friendly and food excellent. Negative - the room we had, a garden view room was tiny, very tired with heating, air con and towel rail not working and due to trees was very dark. Carpet worn and dirty I have seen better and bigger rooms in Premier Inns at a fraction of cost. We did talk to reception who offered another room for one night but we would have to move back next day. Overall impression of hotel was lovely in a great location, just in need of an update which even the staff kept talking about for later this year or next

After paying £450 for 2 nights B&B which included an upgrade for lake view, we felt the room was small (you could not enter/exit the bathroom if the wardrobe door was open) An additional cost was £15.00 per day to park in the hotel car park. We felt the room could have had more small touches ie tissues, biscuits with the tea/coffee and then be replenished after use. The room carpet looked like it needed a good cleaning. Overall we did not think it represented value for money, it is clearly relying on its location for the cost.

The hotel surroundings are beautiful and the inside is very nice. Unfortunately, I did not have a good experience. The staff was curt and rude. They didn't inform me when housekeeping would be closed and not accommodating. It was very disappointing.

Perfectly situated hotel, easily walkable into Bowness and all its attractions. The Belsfield has beautiful grounds and although maybe could do with a slight refresh it’s still a beautiful hotel with lots of charm and character. Breakfast was good and speedily served. The staff are polite and attentive and big shout out to the barman on Saturday evening who made me the best mai tai I’ve ever tasted. The only issue we had was parking related, we arrived at about 3.30pm on the Saturday and the car park was full. We managed to get a space later once the late lunch visitors left. Next time we visit the Lakes we would choose to stay here again.

Great location . Friendly staff. Good breakfast. But I was annoyed at having to pay £15 parking in what is a public car park so difficult to find a car spot. I was insulted to have to pay £15 for half litre of still water to take to room, for these 2 reasons We wouldn’t stay there again.

On arrival, hotel was beautiful from the outside. Very clean reception/bar and restaurant area. We were very pleased and excited! Just to add, £15 parking for guests for a 24 hour period, which we knew about and fair for the area. Safe car park. Great location, walked into Windermere in the evening and had some tea out. 10/10 for location. The fire alarm sounded at 3:00am, which wasn’t an issue as this is health and safety, and as a suspected fire we evacuated straight away. Everyone was gathered in the car park and reception area, there was no communication from staff in hi-vis, they just allowed us back in still with alarm sounding. I got an update from other guests to inform us they were still looking for the cause of the alarm?? Information appeared to be given to guests sat in reception, those in the car park was left to find out themselves. The walls are paper thin, at 0600 we were woken to next doors shower on, upstairs floorboards & the neighbours talking getting ready for breakfast. Breakfast was lovely, beautiful room and good service. Nice view from the window. Got back up to the room after having breakfast, and thought we’d have a nice coffee looking out of our lake view room. A maintenance man was in the room next door, with his tool box outside our door, drilling, knocking, making all sounds. Check out is 11am, so please, if you want a nice chill out morning this hotel isn’t for you.
