Great location, very friendly and helpful staff, cosy atmosphere, hearty English breakfast, great value. Thank you Paula and Richard.
Dheeraj
We had a very pleasant stay at Kirkland Guest House. The property was clean, neat, and well maintained throughout our visit. The hosts were extremely helpful, welcoming, and genuinely kind, making us feel comfortable from the moment we arrived.
While it isn’t a luxury or fancy property, it offers excellent value for money and has everything needed for a comfortable stay. The warm hospitality and attention to guests really stood out. I would happily recommend Kirkland Guest House to anyone looking for a clean, friendly, and affordable place to stay.

The property was spotless & breakfast was good. Paula & her husband were very helpful & knowledgeably. The ground floor room we had room would benefit from more drawer space
Sarah
Paula was a delight! Loved her advice and helpful tips. Our little family room was perfect and so cozy. The house is perfectly located close to the Badderley Clock Tower bus stop, and perfectly situated between Bowness and Windermere. Breakfast is not to be missed! Everything was locally sourced and delicious. Highly recommend!

Richard and Paula the hosts were very pleasant and helpful. Place was clean and immaculate. Safe off road parking. Top marks for where the property is sited, with in walking distance of the lakes, shopping and dining.

Yuanchen
Fantastic stay in Windermere! Thanks for Richard and Paula, we had an amazing time for 3 nights. Great taste breakfast provided everyday, the room is classic furnished and the location is good. With impacted introduction from Paula, we explored most of areas of Lake District. We enjoyed our holiday here and will definitely choose Kirkwood for the next time.
Angus
A very pleas stay
Overall - very good and would recommend. The DVD remote wasn’t working, but the chap was straight on to it, and the next guests will have a new remote. The breakfast sausages had a burnt layer on them, but we think that’s the way they fry them. Nice people and great accommodation.
Megan
The stay at Kirkwood Guest House was everything we could have asked for, Paula was so attentive and the breakfast service was exceptional. The location was a 10-minute walk between both Windermere and Bowness. Couldn’t have asked for anything more from a guesthouse.

Lovely, relaxing break in the Lakes.
Really enjoyable 2 night stay. Room warm and comfortable. Had the option to eat breakfast in our own room or the dining room. Breakfast was exceptional, all local produce with a vegetarian option. Richard and Paula were very friendly. Would definitely recommend and would 100% stay again ☺️
David
One night stop over.
Very friendly, excellent breakfast, extremely comfy bed and great hosts. Loved it.
Sheila
We really enjoyed our stay here, breakfast was delicious and plenty to choose from, there was a low beam in the loft room which I banged my head on in the middle of the night. I wouldn’t let this put me off staying here again though as the building is a old cottage style so features like this are expected in a loft, bed was a little on the small side too but again as expected in the loft room.

What a lovely place to stay!
We stay around Bowness a few times every year and staying at Kirkwood was our all time favourite.
The location is perfect, peaceful and quiet, yet a 5 minute walk to Windermere town and maybe 6 or 7 minutes walk to Bowness.
The owner was so friendly and chatty, and was there to give suggestions and advice about lical places to visit, places to eat etc, and the breakfast was perfect, you could just tell that high quality ingredients were used throughout.
The room was lovely too, spotlessly clean, nice decor without trying to do too much.
Shower was perfext- modern, easy to use and was immediately the right temperature.
Having stayed at over a dozen guest houses in the area, this is the one that got everything just right for us and is our new favourite.

Wonderful Windermere!
Wonderful stay, arrived by train straight forward 15 min walk to B&B, warm welcome, lovely comfortable room on ground floor. Breakfasts were perfect and Paula really looked after us. Great location only a 15 min walk to the lake and plenty of dining outlets, although it is best to book in advance. Bus stop only a 5 min stroll away and you can get a day ticket to explore the southern lakes. Thank you Paula & Richard for a memorable stay.

We didn`t spend much time indoors since the weather was wonderful, but we did appreciate how welcoming, kind and helpful Paula was - and we also enjoyed the breakfast each and every day, so many thanks!

Lovely guesthouse in Windermere
We loved our stay at Kirkwood Guest House. Paula and Richard went out of their way to look after us- making a packed breakfast when we were going out early, and giving us plasters after a fall on one of the fells. Parking outside or on the street easily available. The rooms are very comfortable - divine beds and pillows and a small tea/coffee station that was very nice to have in the room. Lovely furniture and the arm chairs were a really nice touch. Only slight thing was the temperature dial in the shower was super sensitive so would go from cold to scalding very easy. But got the knack of it. The actual shower was strong, clean and amazing.
Breakfast was outstanding especially the gluten free waffles. I loved the veggie full English and my husband loved his sausage with toast. They are very covid safe and very clean. It is in easy walking distance (10-15min depending where you are going) to either Windermere or Bowness-on-Windermere. So many lovely restaurants in the area. Our best was Sunday roast at Lamplighter Dining Rooms and Tapios for amazing tapas for dinner.
Highly recommend a stay in Kirkwood Guest House!

great location
Excellent location, Easy walking distance to both Windermere & Bowness. Our room was perfect & our hosts were very welcoming.
Paul
A very nice hotel indeed.
Given the current covid situation our stay was faultless, breakfast was on a time rota so no issues with social distancing etc, it was enough to keep you going all day and plenty of choice. The owners were very warm and welcoming and our room was spacious and clean.
We stayed on the second floor and the only small issue was that the bed was under the eaves of the roof which could be problematic for the taller guests. It was not an issue for me ( 6ft) i just made sure i ducked.
The room and hotel were well appointed and there is plenty of parking nearby including a two car carpark attached to the hotel.
There are two schools nearby but again it was not an issue the children did not disturb us at all when in the room during the day.
A throughly decent hotel and i wouldn't hesitate to return and excellent value for money.

Excellent breakfast with good produce. Easy walk to the centre of Windermere and not so bad of a walk to Bowness. Free parking and Wifi. Can provide an iron/board

Service was great and we really appreciated the hosts' flexibility to customise breakfast options. However, wouldnt recommend the triple room as the third bed only has a thin lumpy mattress compared to the double bed. Toilet sink was also very small which posed some inconveniences. Towards the end of our summer stay, the room was also getting stuffy because there was no aircon. Location wise is ok (around 20 mins walk) but we took a taxi to and fro from Windermere station with our luggages as the pavements are pretty uneven.

PERFECT STAY
We had a lovely, lovely stay at The Kirkwood. We were looked after throughout our stay, including lovely breakfasts, friendly advice and a very comfortable room. The mattress was a little softer than we are used to at home but it was still comfortable, and we loved the TV having a built in Dvd as we could watch a couple of films.

A weekend at the lakes
On the whole a nice stay. Location was great for us. Lovely breakfast prepared fresh every morning. We stayed in room #2 on the ground floor right next door to the breakfast room and entrance hall, consequently we heard every word said in the hall....a thicker or soundproofed door would help massively.
