House holiday rentals in Bowness-on-Windermere

We had a lovely stay at Francesca's home to celebrate my wife's 40th birthday. 6 adults and 3 children were easily accommodated, and the space allowed us to have a fun catch-up. Fran's printed information sheets were great, and allowed us to make the most of our time there. Friendly, responsive host. We hope to be back!

Home from home, lovely welcome basket of goodies, will definitely be back

We had such a fabulous stay at Carole’s place in Warton. The lodge was immaculate and so well equipped with everything we needed. The location was quiet, private and set around a lovely small lake. 30 minute drive to Windermere and 15 minutes to Lancaster. Would highly recommend and look forward to staying again in the future.

Lovely house in a great location near Lake Windermere. We visited with younger children and there was lots to keep them entertained. Although local play parks and the town of Windermere were not in walking distance to the house, this did not make any difference to our holiday as we would have driven with the children anyway. Brockhole park and estate being a great local spot for the family. The access to the local health spa was a great addition to the house.

Our group of 7 adults and 3 kids really enjoyed our stay. The place was cozy, comfortable and had everything we needed. It provided the perfect getaway and we will definitely be back.

This was the perfect place for exploring Kendal and the surrounding Lakes. We parked the car on the drive and didn’t move it for our entire stay, choosing to walk and use the very handy public transport to get around instead. We arrived at the spotlessly clean and very well equipped house around 3, then had a lovely sunset walk up to Kendal Castle before using the amazing lounge for a family games night - loads of room on the coffee table and very comfy sofas! The next day we caught the 555 bus to Windermere for £3, it took a very scenic 30 minutes and we had an amazing day exploring Windermere and Bowness before returning to use the pool and hot tub at the hotel 2 minutes away, then using amazing kitchen facilities to cook a family meal and have have a poker tournament! On our final full day we packed some lunch and had a walk to Scout Scar - amazing views. We then had the one of best meal’s we’ve had at Pappy’s Texas BBQ - would definately recommend booking in advance. Amazing!

Family of 4 stayed 3 nights in October 2024 and it was just what we needed. Had some beautiful long walks along the beach. The caravan was home from home, clean and cosy. It had everything you could want for cooking a simple breakfast to Sunday Roast. Clean and respectful surroundings around the park. I would definitely recommend to family and friends.

House was as described, beautiful setting with wonderful views of the hills and mountains. Rooms are spacious with comfy beds and bathrooms are nicely finished with good showers. Kitchen is a good size and has all required implements. A great location for exploring the central lakes and soaking up all that Ambleside has to offer.

This is a lovely town house in a central, but quiet part of Millom. Check in was straightforward and instructions very clear. It was clean, well presented and the rooms were very comfortable. We usually stay in properties outside Millom to get this amount of space and be able to park close by, so it was a great find and one we will definitely use in future if it is available.

First time we used a airbnb and what a good place to start with. Easy flexible check in. Kelly communicated well. Thanks for your hospitality

We had a great time at Canny Brow Barn. Everything you could possible think of or need for your stay, Ian and Anne-Marie had thought about, from a cocktail shaker to cleaning products to games. Would highly recommend!

Absolutely loved our stay, was very homely and cosy stay. Super close to the centre, nice stroll down the hill and you’ll find some fantastic places to visit. We really enjoyed, Brew for amazing coffee, Journey Social for breakfast, Go Burrito for a quick evening meal and Williamson park for a lovely stroll in the sunshine to name a few. The kitchen was well stocked if eating in is for you, they even provided a slow cooker, mixer and toasty maker! Highly recommend staying here ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I had a wonderful relaxing stay with my elderly parents. Georgie gave me so much information and loads of tips during the week, and generally was super friendly and helpful. Her place was warm, welcoming, and very well kitted out for a family week. The location in Bowness village is ideal, just on the edge of the busy tourist area only a few minutes walk away, and very close to everything. The bus stop is right outside the guest house which is spot on for the 599 which goes around the Windermere and Grasmere area and is a great sight-seeing option. Thanks Georgie for a lovely stay, highly recommend your lovely place and hospitality!

Great location for Barrow and the lakes. Bus stop near to property providing access into Barrow and the shops. Good access to the train station. Walney Island has great views. The property is cosy and warm.

Myself and my friends had an excellent stay at Sue’s property with our dogs. It helped that the weather was lovely but the cottage would have been so cosy and comfortable regardless. Sue’s instructions were helpful in finding the property and the cottage itself was spotless and well equipped. We have had a very relaxing stay and will definitely look to visit again next time!! Thank you very much!

The details are what separate good stays from great ones. Hause Hall has thought these through to the last inch and it boasts unbeatable charm with a location that provides spectacular views and proximity to nature. It would be a mistake to keep searching for a better stay!

Had a wonderful weekend here with friends. The house and view are even more stunning than the photos. Plenty of space for everyone to do their thing and a great location to explore the South and West Lakes area. The directions and house instructions were clear and we had a wonderful meal at the recommended pub.

Great large house in a close proximity to the beach and local tesco.

An absolutely amazing place. We found ourselves at home and with all the convenient amenities required for a great holiday. Very spacious and situated in a perfect location. Above all, Brenda was simply amazing, taking time to explain everything and giving us excellent recommendations. She was so helpful and always contactable. We will certainly be returning to this beautiful cottage.

Had an amazing stay at Tarn Croft. House is gorgeous and is in a peaceful and tranquil setting. Couldn’t recommend highly enough.

Rosie’s place was definitely one for the list to come back to. It was very clean, warm and had everything you needed. The garden was nice and enclosed so suited our little border terrier well. The decor is lovely, definitely taking a few ideas home … particularly the bathroom. The wood burner was a great cosy addition to come back to after a walk. A great village location, so quiet and peaceful.

Fantastic place, beautiful location, everything we needed available for a great weekend stay

a beautiful home had everyting init, loved the hot tub and games room. it was spotless and so clean. Hosts were always on board and gave so much info and it was reassuring to know they were available if needed. we loved our stay and hopefully will visit again.

We had a great family holiday here, beautiful bedrooms, great living space and the hot tub was spot on! It's within walking distance to Windermere and only a 30 min walk down to the pier.
