Room was clean and location was perfect. We headed to bowness for an evening cruise, was lovely and easy to walk back to hotel. If you’re booking through a third party then please be aware of a parking charge, we paid £10 for two days we stayed, was not too bad, although limited parking on site, and we could always use the overflow parking. Breakfast was nice too. Overall was a good stay.

This is our fifth visit here so, obviously, we like it. The staff are friendly, the breakfast is good, the rooms warm and beds comfortable. Parking tends to be the cause of anxiety so, usually, once we have secured an onsite parking space, we don’t use the car and rely on public transport to get around.

We were in room 13 this year and found storage space for clothing to be minimal. Also, I was unwell on this visit (nothing to do with the hotel) so we spent more time in the room than usual. We would have appreciated some seating in the room because of this.

Comfortable Stay with Modern Amenities and Parking

I had a very comfortable stay. The room was a generous size with an excellent bed, and I appreciated the in-room touches—tea and coffee, a fridge, and a smart TV with iPlayer and Netflix.
Parking spaces at the front were difficult to get, but the overflow car park at the neighbouring hotel is just a short walk away and worked well for me.
All the staff were very friendly and helpful.
Breakfast was very good. Overall, a smooth and pleasant experience.

Recommended - good location and friendly

Very friendly staff, comfortable, clean room and very convenience place within walking distance to restaurants and the lake. However, there are two things that need to improve 1) should have allocated parking for each room 2) we stayed in room #5 which is above the breakfast area the smell of burning toasts and burning smoke got into the room in the morning, should have better extractor fan in the kitchen area.

Great location!

Great hotel with beautiful food. Very clean and staff were brilliant. Perfectly situated next to centre of town and close to lake.
Only downsides were having to pay for parking because we booked away from their own site and room has no air con, just a very loud fan you can’t sleep with on. Also, very loud creaking of floor boards above our room every time someone moved.

We stayed for 3 nights in one of the standard rooms (all the other rooms were fully booked), the room was great & bed super comfortable. We ate breakfast in the hotel everyday which was delicious & there was a fantastic choice of different dishes. The staff were all super friendly & helpful & the hotel is located near to all the restaurants, bars & shops in the area.
I would love to return one day & try one of the other rooms

Our recent stay at The Cranleigh Boutique in Bowness-on-Windermere was an absolute pleasure and comes highly recommended. From the moment we arrived, the hotel exuded a welcoming and luxurious atmosphere that set the tone for a perfect Lake District break.

The hotel's location is ideal, offering easy access to the charm of Bowness and the stunning scenery of Lake Windermere, while still providing a peaceful retreat. Our room was beautifully appointed, combining contemporary style with comfort, and was immaculately clean. The attention to detail throughout the hotel is evident and truly enhances the guest experience.

A particular highlight of our stay was the breakfast. It is clear that The Cranleigh Boutique places a high value on starting the day right for their guests. The selection was extensive and delicious, catering to all tastes. As someone who requires gluten-free and lactose-free options, I was particularly impressed by the variety and quality available. It's often a challenge to find hotels that offer genuinely good choices for dietary needs, but The Cranleigh Boutique excelled, providing a stress-free and enjoyable breakfast experience.

The staff were consistently friendly, professional, and attentive, always willing to go the extra mile to ensure we had everything we needed. Their local knowledge and recommendations were also greatly appreciated.

Overall, The Cranleigh Boutique offers a truly exceptional experience. It's a place where luxury meets comfort, and

You definitely get what you pay for.

Fabulous customer service before our stay and the Receptionists were all extremely helpful and welcoming during our stay.

The Seduction Suite was fantastic and the addition of Breakfast served at a time to suit ourselves was a great extra as otherwise we maybe wouldn’t have bothered.

Would definitely stay again and hopefully will look into the Hideout house next time.

The discount in the Fizzy Tarté for us was a great bonus too as we spent far too much money in there, but when it’s so much fun, along with a discount then who cares !

It was our Christmas present to ourselves so what a fabulous start to Christmas.

The staff were extremely helpful and very accommodating. The breakfast was excellent and it was particularly nice to have it delivered to the suite. The only issue was the shower over the bath was a bit challenging. However our original suite had a walk in shower but the two flights of stairs were to challenging for my husband who walks with a crutch. If I had booked directly with the hotel I could have discussed our requirements with them. However the staff did everything they could to help.

Super autumn stay away.

Really good location, but located on a hill if anyone struggles with up hill walks, but an easy walk for those that don't. Short distance to all attractions with plenty of places to eat from close by. The Cranleigh is very welcoming and well ran, breakfast choice is good and done a great standard. You will not be disappointed if you choose to stay here.

There was no air conditioning in our room and this meant the room was uncomfortably hot. We were given an extra fan but the fans are too noisy so this meant we had a poor nights sleep. Although the room was very nice, for £245 i expected there would have been air conditioning so we would have got a good nights sleep.

Had two nights at the Cranleigh last weekend. Staff were amazing, especially at breakfast.
Room was comfortable with a very nice bathroom. Many led lights in the bedroom/wardrobe which had a mind of their own, randomly turning on in the middle of the night.
Breakfast was very nice with so much choice and of good quality.
Only downside was the weather but it is the Lakes and we didn’t have to walk very far to the pub or restaurants.
Will definitely be back.

I was looking for a really nice hotel to have a child-free weekend away with my wife for our anniversary. The Cranleigh hit the mark perfectly, it was spotlessly clean in a fantastic location to explore Lake Windermere - the pubs/restaurants of Bowness are about a 2 minute walk from the hotel and the quayside (where you can get boats to Ambleside and Lakeside) is about 5 mins away. The hotel also has parking out front and an overflow car park about a minutes walk away down the road. The breakfast menu wasn't vast but the food was of very good quality, and at all times I found the staff to be friendly and helpful. I'd definitely recommend the Cranleigh if you're looking for a couples break away in the Lake District.
