We first came last year to this hotel & loved it that much we stayed again this year.
The hotel is in a perfect location for us to explore Windermere where there are lovely restaurants & shops.
As soon as you arrive you are greeted with a smile & quick check in there is no reception as such you just ring a buzzer.
All staff are very friendly & chatty & help you as & when necessary.
The breakfast choice was plentiful catering for all diets, breakfast made fresh to order was hot & good produce from the local area.
The room was a decent size,clean & everything you needed.
Bathroom spacious & clean.
Thank you so much for another great stay we will be back

Overall, we had a nice stay. The room was spacious and comfortable, and the bathroom was large and modern. One thing to be aware of is that there’s no elevator (that I’m aware of), so carrying heavy bags up the stairs can be challenging. Breakfast doesn’t start until 8am, which may be inconvenient for early risers. Clearer instructions would be helpful for guests not from the UK, especially for things like turning the heated towel rack and heated floors on and off. The TV was a bit unreliable and didn’t always work consistently, possibly due to the remote or the TV itself being outdated. On the positive side, breakfast was enjoyable and freshly cooked to order. Overall, a pleasant stay with a few small areas that could be improved.

Had a lovely stay at the Hawksmoor. Check in with Pamela was stress free. We could walk (uphill) into Bowness and Windermere in 15 minutes, so location was perfect. The rooms were well equipped with toiletries, tea & coffee and ironing boards a readily available on each floor.
Breakfast was very good, options were perfect with fruit, yogurt, cereals and cooked on offer.
The staff were all polite and helpful.
Access to our room (5) was via fairly narrow & steep stairs, which was hard work with a heavy bag (we were away for 8 days in total, I don't overpack, regardless of what hubby says :)), so if you are taking luggage or have mobility issues may be worth requesting a lower floor room.
All in all, had a fabulous stay, loved Windermere & would definitely recommend. We would love to return.

Hawksmoor exceeded expectations

We had a fabulous stay at the Hawksmoor. The hotel was beautifully decorated and very clean. There were tea, coffee and hot chocolate making facilities, as well as biscuits and the nice little addition of a fridge for our wine ;) Even the toiletries in the bathroom were top quality products.

We were given a room right by the main entrance and dining room, so we were concerned about noise but there was nothing to worry about. We slept very well, undisturbed in our very comfortable beds.

The breakfast was delicious with lots of choice.

Special shout out to Pam, who provided tea and homemade biscuits on our early arrival, while were waiting for our room to become available. She looked after us really well and even made some useful recommendations for day trips.

Thanks so much for making our girls weekend away extra special.

Fantastic b&b

We loved our stay here over New Years Eve.
Its a little walk to the centre, either Bowness or Windermere but worth it to have off road parking
The room we had was a good size with a modern feel
Breakfast was great and kept us full for our planned walks on the fells.
All of the staff we met were welcoming and friendly.

Pleasing couple of nights

We spent two nights here and loved it. The convenience of the spacious car park was our first joy - there's nothing worse than trying to park in a busy area.
Our room was lovely. It overlooked a bubbling stream and the two lounge chairs overlooking it invited us to sit and enjoy.
The bathroom was modern and clean, the room comfortable. Breakfast the next morning was good too. Shout out to the lovely lady who was serving us in the breakfast room each morning. We didn't get your name but your smile lit up the room.
Thanks for a very pleasant stay.

Very good.

Great location.

Room was newly refurbished and very clean and comfortable.

Cooked breakfast was very good.

Only downside was that after a day walking in the wind and the rain on a cold December day, we checked in at 3pm and were told the heating come son 6pm.

Very underwhelming on arriving after driving past so many properties looking so festive and it looked closed. Check in was very easy and the twin room 7 was nice and very clean and it was lovely to have a balcony looking over the countryside. Nice products in the bathroom with heated towel rail but the room was very cold with the heating turned off. The beds were very comfy and quilts were great, pillows were too hard for me but that’s personal choice. Breakfast was beautiful, cooked fresh with quality ingredients and nothing was too much trouble. The guest house was located between Windermere and Bowness-on-Windermere 10 minutes walk to either but because of the torrential rain over the weekend we used taxis that were plentiful and cheap

Amazing

Beautiful stay for an early birthday treat. Place is fantastic, we had a little balcony that was lovely. Breakfast was gorgeous both days lots of choice. Hosts were absolutely fantastic really friendly. Half way inbetween both bowness and windermere. Take a visit to the tap rooms that was lovely. 20 mins from ambleside to then take on the loughrigg fell walk. Hoping to come back in 2024. :)

Perfect stay

The second time we've stayed at the Hawksmoor and yet again we couldn't fault it. Excellent and friendly service, very nice freshly cooked breakfast to start the day in very pleasant surroundings.
It is also perfectly placed between Windermere and Bowness for the many shops, bars and restaurants.

A small hotel, well managed and clean. Breakfast is included and we really enjoyed the qualities of the food we had. I definitely will choose this hotel again if I would be visiting Windermere again.

Pleasant stay with lovey staff.

Nice room but furniture a bit tired. Bed very comfy. Bathroom fab. Big windows facing a busy road but no blinds to draw for privacy. Had to draw full curtains to get in and out of bed and to visit bathroom. Good choice of breakfast served by with friendly and cheerful staff

We could not fault the guest house. The room, No 14, had everything we needed and the bathroom was lovely, everything was spotlessly clean. Pam greeted us on arrival and was very friendly and welcoming.
The breakfasts we had were of a high standard.

This is the first time I stay in a guest house, B&B as I am a high end hotel customer & to my utmost surprise I was delighted with the reception received by Pamela & her staff, her willingness to locate areas I wished to visit and her all round helpfulness. The breakfast was stunning which included Eggs Benedict with smoked salmon fruit, yogurt etc etc…I would highly recommend a stay @ this Guest House.

Hawksmoor Guest House was immaculately run by the owners. The very friendly staff couldn't do enough to make our stay a joy. Would highly recommend a visit if you are in the Windemere/ Bowness area.

Perfect stay

My wife and I have just returned from a short trip to Bowness, staying at this lovely guest house.
On first impressions it is a nice looking property with a good, spacious carpark, and central between Windermere and Bowness which was a relatively easy walk to both.
The room was lovely and spotlessly clean, the service by Pamela was exceptional, and the breakfast was freshly cooked and plentiful.
I would highly recommend a stay here, we will certainly be back soon.

Overnight Stay

Exceptional guest house. Warmly greeted, room was spotless and recently modernised. Breakfast was cooked fresh and was piping hot. We have stayed at several guest houses and hotels in the area and this was the best by far. Parking was a great benefit.
