Where to Stay in Bowness on Windermere

Here you can enjoy peaceful walks along the lakeshore, explore scenic trails, and relax in the serene environment while still being close to the town's attractions, and away from the heavy crowds.

Insider Tips for Bowness on Windermere

  • Make sure you choose a hotel with parking if you’re driving to Bowness. Public parking gets extremely busy during peak season and you don’t want to be doing laps of the town to find a space if you’ve been for a drive.
  • Take a boat trip on Lake Windermere, England’s largest natural lake. Various cruises are available, offering scenic views of the lake and surrounding mountains. You can also hire a rowing boat or kayak for a more active adventure.
  • Visit The World of Beatrix Potter Attraction, where you can immerse yourself in the enchanting world of Peter Rabbit and other beloved characters. The attraction includes interactive exhibits and a beautiful garden.
  • Explore the stunning gardens and grounds of the National Trust’s Wray Castle, located nearby. The castle offers fantastic views of Lake Windermere and is a great place for a family picnic or a leisurely walk.
  • For outdoor enthusiasts, take a hike up Orrest Head, a relatively easy walk that rewards you with panoramic views over Lake Windermere and the surrounding fells. It’s a perfect spot for photography and enjoying the natural beauty of the Lake District.
