In Bowness village, a 10-minute walk from Lake Windermere, this award-winning Victorian guest house still retains many of its original features. It offers free off-road parking, free Wi-Fi, and peaceful private gardens.

  A Stellar B&B. Wow. Oakfold House is a premier choice for staying in The Lake District. The hosts are very kind and generous, while constantly working to maintain their very high standard. There is nothing to fault here, we had a thoroughly enjoyable time during our 4 day stay at Oakfold House. The rooms are very nice and well kept, and for the breakfast the hosts absolutely crushed it, every time. Every single meal we had at Oakfold was incredible. Everything was consistently perfect (literally). Highly highly recommend Oakfold House, and many thanks for making us so welcomed during our wonderful stay with you.

    The customer service was superb as soon as we arrived, we were welcomed with glasses of prosecco and got a free upgrade for my boyfriends birthday which was brilliant! The hotel was absolutely gorgeous and the room was extremely clean, spacious and comfortable. You are provided with Elemis products which are luxury, as well as a robe, slippers and towels. The spa was fantastic and very romantic. Overall, we had the most romantic time and we were gutted when we had to leave. Definitely planning on coming back in the Summer.

    Everything was superb. The building has old world charm but is kept in top condition - no faded grandeur here. The room was exceptionally comfortable and well-appointed. The food was excellent; we have eaten at Michelin-starred restaurants that were nowhere as good as this. Finally, the staff were fantastic, so friendly, but also discreet and quietly efficient, they made our stay.
