Windermere Manor Hotel
About
Windermere Manor Hotel sits proudly on the edge of the Lake District’s shimmering Lake Windermere, surrounded by three acres of manicured gardens and sweeping views of the Langdale Pikes. The historic manor house, originally built in the 1850s, is complemented by a charming cottage annex that houses a heated indoor swimming pool, a vibrant bar and restaurant, and a landscaped terrace with glass‑roofed pergolas that overlook the calm waters. The hotel offers 35 unique bedrooms, ranging from cosy standard rooms with en‑suite facilities to larger club and superior rooms that open onto private patios. Every room is thoughtfully fitted with modern conveniences – electronic kettles, hairdryers, TVs, and complimentary tea and coffee supplies – while maintaining the original character and warmth of the historic setting. Guests can start their day with a leisurely breakfast in the bright conservatory, enjoy lunch or dinner in the elegant restaurant featuring seasonal menus and vegetarian options, or indulge in traditional afternoon tea in the Chapel or Drawing Rooms. During the warmer months the indoor pool is open 8 am–8 pm, providing a tranquil escape after a day of exploration. The hotel also offers a complimentary Wi‑Fi, free car parking, electric‑vehicle charging, a private dog‑friendly run, and accessible facilities for guests with mobility or visual impairments. Designed with families and pets in mind, Windermere Manor welcomes dogs of all sizes – a dedicated dog‑menu, water bowls, and a fenced grassy run are provided. Assistance dogs stay free of charge, and all staff receive specialised training to support visually impaired guests. Bookings can be made directly on the official website, ensuring an easy and secure reservation process.
