From my personal experience, this hotel is one of the two best hotels in Windermere. The hotel building was built in 1896 and has a history of 126 years. The hotel is close to the lake, and the scenery is excellent. Whether sitting on the grass next the lake, on the terrace outside the hotel, or in the room, the lake and mountains in front of you, and the misty sunset, is just like a dream, making people look forward to the time stop at this moment. The restaurant of the hotel is excellent and every dish does not disappoint. The hotel staff are very friendly and make you feel just right. Of course, I also visited the towns of Ambleside, Bowness and Windermere recommended by many people, and also experienced the restaurants in the towns. But to be honest, in comparison, the hotel's scenery is far better than the scenery in these three towns, and the restaurant is much better than the good restaurants in these towns I’d tried. If you don't hike around the lake, in fact, it is the best choice to enjoy the scenery of the lake and mountains quietly and taste delicious food in the hotel.
