Located in a particularly attractive stone building, the accommodation is part of a conversion of a 19th-century former stables. The Stable Nest offers all the benefits of a hotel room but with the added bonus of a fully equipped kitchen. It is perfect for self catering, but with so many attractions, pubs and restaurants on your doorstep, you’ll be far too busy enjoying yourself to bother cooking! With dedicated parking behind the building, you can leave your car without having to worry about traffic or parking charges.
A wealth of independent shops, boutiques, cafés and superb international cuisine restaurants are all found within a short stroll along with the attraction of Lake Windermere itself. For the more energetic visitor, rowing boats are available on the lake, or you can enjoy a leisurely steamer ride on the lake to see the stunning landscape. Why not wander up to Windermere town where there is a choice of shops and eateries, as well as a traditional cinema and The World of Beatrix Potter attraction? There are regular boat trips over to Ambleside and Lakeside, the latter of which is home to the Lakes Aquarium. From here you can also take a steam train along the Lakeside-Haverthwaite railway. The bus and railway stations give scope to travel further afield and explore the wider area. Walkers can enjoy access to a variety of walks from Bowness. Take a gentle stroll to the lake, or a more strenuous hike to the peaceful valley of Kentmere, the landscape and surroundings are second to none. Shop, pub and restaurant 100 yards.

Disliked: Cleanliness
It was much smaller than we were led to believe, we had to clean mould off the bath taps, overflow and shower head. No ventilation in the bathroom as fan is useless and no windows to open.

Disappointed
We were not given the key code before arrival and were in very heavy rain trying to get through on the telephone to get the code, waiting for a call back. The cleaning prior to our arrival was poor- plus there were two pairs of underpants in the drawer from a previous visitor, whenever that might have been! It needs better heating than a storage heater and plug in radiators, it was cold.
