Fabulous guest house with lovely...
Liked: Great location being close to the centre of Windermere and also easy access to some scenic walks close by to the summit at Orrest Head and also to lake Windermere.Guest house had lots of charm and felt very homely. Our room had lovely views and was spotlessly clean. The bathroom was very modern with a big walk in rain shower.The owners, Anita and Denis, were very welcoming and lovely people. We mentioned it was our wedding anniversary and when we returned to our room that night they had left us a lovely surprise gift from them both, what a lovely touch from them. Excellent breakfast, lots of choice …. freshly cooked and great service.So much to like about our stay that we will definitely be returning

Great weekend in the Lakes
Liked: Anita and Denis were fantastic hosts and made us feel very welcome as soon as we arrived, and throughout our stay. The room was very clean and well presented and we had a lovely view of lake Windermere from our window. We got a delicious slide of banana cake when we arrived which was a nice touch! The breakfast was also wonderful. We had the Caribbean breakfast both mornings because it was so good! It was fantastic value for money and would highly recommend staying at Archway guest house if you're planning a trip to the Lake District.
Disliked: Nothing!

Overall, many thanks to the...
Liked: The host was very nice and friendly. She provided amazing recommendation on the local restaurants and attractions. Breakfast was very delicious and freshly homemade on the day. I would recommend trying the Caribbean breakfast, which can't be found anywhere else in the region. I would also definitely consider staying here for my next visit to Windermere.
Disliked: Sound insulation wasn't that good. But I guess there isn't much one can do to an old house like this.

Exceptional
Liked: Wonderful guesthouse with everything you could possibly want for a special time in the Lake District! I had an amazing time. The room is spacious, super comfortable and light-filled with a gorgeous view of the mountains and lake Windermere! A highlight for me was the bathroom and luxurious tub which was perfect for soaking in after a big day hiking. The location is great - I visited several towns in the area and liked Windermere the best - it is cute and relaxed with easy access to lovely walks and the lake. Anita and Denis were fantastic hosts - they accommodated my dietary needs at late notice, serving up three delicious breakfasts which fuelled my Lakes adventures each day. They are also just super lovely people who make you feel at home!I would stay again in a heartbeat! Thanks Anita and Denis :-)
