“A festive treat!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 December 2011

We stayed at Ravenscroft in the Superior Room in between Christmas and the New Year and had a fantastic time!

The room is very spacious and clean and the en-suite is also spacious.

Jackie is very welcoming and friendly and cooks a lovely breakfast. Breakfast is served in the lounge in front of a lovely fire.

Ravenscroft is situated about 5 minutes walk from Windermere and 10 minutes walk from Bowness so is in an ideal location!

Would we stay here again? Definitely!

Room Tip: For a special treat the Superior Room is perfect - very spacious with a sofa area!

“Didn,t want to leave !!!!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 November 2011

I have stayed in many guesthouses up and down the country but this one was by far the best , Jackie and Steve made us feel at home the minute we walked through the door . It instantly feels like a home , warm and very inviting , particularly the pot of tea and biscuits on arrival in front of a roaring fire !!! The two bedrooms we had were amazing with everything you needed and more ! Lovely bathroom and very comfortable beds . We also visited Jackie and Steves Deli in Bowness and stocked up on some wonderful goodies , ( highly recomend a visit ) We will certainly be going back as it really was hard to leave this fantastic place , If you are in the area you will not find a better place to stay or a bigger breakfast . Thanks so much to you both

“Excellent!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 October 2011

Having not stayed in a B & B for nearly 15 years, I was concerned that I would miss not staying in a hotel and therefore not enjoy my weekend away. I dont know why I was worried as the Ravenscroft is a fantastic place. We would never have got such a warm welcome in a hotel! Or, come to think of it, a lovely pot of tea in a comfy lounge in front of a roaring log fire. The house itself is beautiful and our room (no 2) was beautiful. The bed was so comfy. The breakfast was fantastic and you got plenty of it! I cannot recommend the Ravenscroft enough. It is ideally located, just a short walk (approx 10 mins) into either Bowness or Windermere, We were made to feel extremely welcome and I would tell anyone who is thinking of staying in Windermere to stay at the Ravenscroft. You will not regret it and I am sure you will enjoy your stay as much as we did.

“Cannot Fault”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 October 2011

If you are going to The Lakes and your budget covers it, look no further than this b&b for I cannot fault it. I have stayed in much worse 5 star hotels!
Definatly the best b&b I have stayed in, not just in the Lakes but anywhere. It will take some living up to.
I will never have to look around again for a b&b in Cumbria. Thank you Jackie and Steve.

Jackie and Steve made us feel very welcome. Lovely big room, very clean and well presented. A very friendly reception. Attentive but not over the top. Fab breakfast! Nothing I could fault at all and I will return for longer next year.

Probably the best B&B we have ever stayed at ,we were made very welcome on our arrival by Jackie and the room was excellent and beutifully presented with a good size on suite with a large shower ,the breakfast was also about the best we have had in any establishment ,
All in all the owners should be very proud of this fine accomodation and we would not hestitate to recommend it to anyone and look forward to returning soon ,
5 Star no it was better than that .
