Where to Stay in Bowness on Windermere

There are many hotels and guest houses right in the heart of Bowness on Windermere – it’s a tourist town, and so you won’t be short of options for places to book.

Staying in this area puts you within walking distance of the Bowness Pier, where you can take boat trips around the lake, as well as the World of Beatrix Potter Attraction and a variety of shops, cafes, and restaurants. This area is perfect for those who want to immerse themselves in the vibrant atmosphere of Bowness-on-Windermere.

If you prefer a more tranquil setting with picturesque views, consider staying on the outskirts of Bowness-on-Windermere. The areas of Windermere and Claife Heights offer charming accommodations, including boutique hotels and cosy inns with beautiful views of the lake and surrounding fells.

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.

For a touch of luxury, the areas around Storrs and Bowness Bay are home to several upscale hotels and boutique guesthouses. These establishments typically feature elegant decor, excellent amenities, and personalised service. Staying in this area, you'll still be close to the lake and enjoy a higher level of comfort and sophistication.

If you want to visit Bowness but don’t mind staying somewhere a little less crowded, Ambleside’s a good option nearby. This gives you a more peaceful retreat with beautiful landscapes and outdoor activities.

This area offers various accommodation options and convenient access to public transportation for trips to nearby destinations like Kendal, Grasmere, and Coniston. Plus it’s only a relatively short walk down into Bowness itself.

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.
