“Excellent Guest house”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 July 2011

people found this review helpful

We loved our stay at Kenilworth Guest House in Windermere. The rooms are spacious with an ensuite. The breakfast is excellent. But what really makes the difference and leaves a lasting impression is the hospitality of Chris and Christine.
They are a lovely couple, very warm and welcoming. Very helpful too. They gave us very valuable suggestions and tips on what to do where to go to eat . The location of the guest house is brilliant. The city centre is about a 10 min walk. We loved Windermere and if we ever get a chance to go back, would love to stay at Kenilworth Guest House.

This was my 5th year staying with Chris & Christine at Kenilworth. You are made so welcome on arrival, very clean & tidy. The breakfast is form local produce & wide choice.
Room great. Nothing is to much trouble & local knowledge is great. Would recommend every time, I've booked for 2012.

“Recommend to future visitors to Windermere”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 June 2011

person found this review helpful

My daughter and I have just returned from a 5 night stay in Windermere, staying with Chris & Christine at The Kenilworth.
From arriving at the guest house to our departure we were made to feel very welcome, and their friendly nature helped to break the ice with other guests at breakfast time etc.
If in the future I plan to pay another visit to Windermere, then I wouldn't hesitate to book at The Kenilworth, or recommend it to others wishing to visit The Lakes.

“A wonderful stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 June 2011

Kenilworth Guest House is a wonderful B&B in Windermere in the Lake District. Our hosts Christine and Chris were very warm and welcoming. They run a very cosy and comfortable establishment and the breakfasts are great! The rooms were very clean and comfortable and both the rooms and en suite bathrooms were quite large. Christine and Chris take great care to look after their guests well and have a lot of helpful tips about places to visit and places to eat. My family and I had a wonderful stay at the Kenilworth Guest House and I will definitely look no further if I go back to the Lake District.

Thank-you for your review - it was a pleasure having you all stay with us. A pity the weather couldn't have been a bit better - the one thing we can't influence!

“5* in all but the price!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 February 2011

I and my husband returned to the Kenilworth as we had enjoyed our previous stay so much. We weren't disappointed! The cleanliness and comfort were just as we remembered. The breakfast is excellent, locally sourced good quality bacon and eggs to name but two! The owners welcomed us back, and were very helpful when we asked for advice on where to go and what to do. I think we will definitely becom 'regulars'!!
