Cleanliness is widely praised, with a few housekeeping misses like dusty spots or stained towels. Guests often commend quick, helpful communication and responsive fixes, but a few reported unanswered messages or less flexible policies. Expect a well-located, good-value base with comfortable rooms and mostly hassle-free, self-service stays.

Facilities
On-site parking is available but limited and tight, so late arrivals may need to use nearby street or overflow spaces; one guest noted poor lighting in part of the car park. Other facilities are rarely mentioned.

Latimer House is in the perfect location for Bowness & Windermere. The property has 5 parking places on a first come first basis (the accommodation has 7 rooms) but the block has many free parking available and so parking was no problem at all.

Great stay at Latimer House. We booked because of the brilliant price but wow it was an amazing room, one of the best I’ve stayed in, in the UK. There was a gorgeous second room with a lovely sofa. I wish we had stayed longer. Great location, very clean and easy parking which they were happy for us to use before check-in. Entry was keyless and didn’t require any effort.

The room was great. Comfy bed and clean throughout. I was disappointed with the parking situation. I was under the impression there’d be parking, and there is, but it’s very limited. Only 4 spaces and they have 7 rooms.

Lovely stay and i would highly recommend it. Clean, quiet, and nice pillows. The only problem we had was when I booked I booked with parking knowing we would have a car. There is only 4 parking spaces so if you come in after 5 or maybe earlier you will be parking on the side streets (no parking in front) which wasn't the best for us as we are seniors and carrying luggage up and down hill can be challenging.

Overall comfort great shower kept going hot and cold as seemed to be affected by water use in other rooms. Bathroom needs a towel rail and somewhere to put toiletries as no cupboard or shelf for this. Asked for extra milk sachets by text as instructed was told no house keeping until 10.30 am so we had to go out for milk so we could make a drink - when I chased up the milk later was told it had been left on hall table. No attempt was made to clean our room on second day of our stay. We had to park on a nearby street as it was unclear where the overflow car was.wouldn’t stay here again as felt ignored really

We stayed in the double room for one night. Hotel was immaculate, parking was great, furniture in the room was lovely, shower room spotless. The location was a 5 minute walk from the lake, bars and restaurants. Although no host is on site, the hotel is extremely secure. We will defiantly stay again. Thankyou so much for a fabulous stay.

A lovely Easter weekend stay at Latimer House We had a fantastic stay at Latimer House in Bowness. The location is ideal—just a short walk from the town centre, which made it easy to explore the area without needing the car. Our room was clean, comfortable, and felt like a real home away from home. We visited over the Easter weekend and were delighted to find Easter-themed truffles waiting for us on arrival—a thoughtful and charming touch that made the stay feel extra special. Would definitely recommend for anyone looking for a cosy base in Bowness with great access to everything the Lakes has to offer.

We really enjoyed our short stay at Latimer House. The bedroom (room 5) was roomy and very clean, as was the en-suite bathroom. Access was easy using the code provided, and the owner was very helpful when we rang her about parking. All in all, an excellent find and very reasonable, we certainly hope to return again!

Property was in a good location not far to walk up to Windermere or down to bars and restaurants, small amount of parking. Stayed in the coach house. Check in was good. Cleanliness of banister there was settled dust, cracks in the cabinets. TV quality wasn’t great. Bathroom shower was good. Heating wasn’t an issue at all, warm in November. overall was a good stay. On the last night we got back late and car park isn’t lit very well my partner fell walking from the coach house to the car, there is a big drop which should be lit where it slopes down next to the garages, which did dampen the stay. Takeaway policy seems excessive after being out walking all day and booking that sort of place you would expect to be able to relax in the space of you wanted too.

Positives: Room was clean and tidy and very spacious. Well located in Bowness, only a short walk to bars/restaurants and the lake. Plenty of free parking in the overflow carpark too. Check in was easy, no issues with codes getting in etc. Negatives: Mattress was quite uncomfortable, could feel a lot of springs when moving around, although bedding was cosy enough. Room was not sound proof, so heard every noise from other guests, which unfortunately were very noisy in the middle of the night - we were located on the ground floor so may have been different upstairs with no one above us banging about and shouting. Bathroom was clean, but very cold and a bit tired. Overall our stay was okay. The guesthouse was considerably cheaper than other b&bs, so probably provides a good base for an evening, but wouldn’t be inclined to stop for multiple nights again.

This is our 3rd stay at Latimer House, and it’s perfect for us. The location is good and the rooms are big enough. The only problem we encountered this stay was the radiator wouldn’t heat up fully so of a morning the room was very cold, the radiator probably just needs bleeding but in 3 years we have stayed here that’s the first problem we’ve ever had. The bed as always was very comfy and the tv allows you to log into your Netflix and Amazon prime account which is nice. There is no check in procedure here which we love, you get sent your room number and entrance codes an hour or so before check in time and you just let yourself in there’s no waiting in queues to go through check in. We will 100% be back again.

The room was bigger than expected, modern, clean and quiet, check in was simple with clear instructions for the digital locks. We will be returning in the future.

Great location and check in was easy. Very spacious with amenities such as tea/coffee making facilities and a stocked up minibar. The jet tub was a nice addition to the room and the bed was very comfy. The only trouble was there was a green light shining brightly from a box attached to the ceiling which made it difficult to sleep. However apart from this we enjoyed our stay.

Not staffed, you receive a code for entry on day of arrival, all worked great. The room was clean, decorated nicely, had a huge bathroom with large shower and free toiletries. Internet was fast and reliable. It was very quiet. The heart chocolates on the pillows (it was Valentines the day after our stay) were a cute touch.

Latimer House is in the perfect location for Bowness & Windermere. The property has 5 parking places on a first come first basis (the accommodation has 7 rooms) but the block has many free parking available and so parking was no problem at all.

A lovely Easter weekend stay at Latimer House We had a fantastic stay at Latimer House in Bowness. The location is ideal—just a short walk from the town centre, which made it easy to explore the area without needing the car. Our room was clean, comfortable, and felt like a real home away from home. We visited over the Easter weekend and were delighted to find Easter-themed truffles waiting for us on arrival—a thoughtful and charming touch that made the stay feel extra special. Would definitely recommend for anyone looking for a cosy base in Bowness with great access to everything the Lakes has to offer.

Excellent choice of accommodation. Within walking discharge of the lake, bars and restaurants. Lovely room with tea and coffee facilities. Hair dryer and towels for use. Easy access via the key pads and excellent communication from the hosts.

We stayed for 2 nights mid-week, and had a lovely time. Latimer House was easy to find, with parking available on site and well located, communication ahead before arrival was helpful and responed quickly to a question I had. The room was bigger than expected, modern, clean and quiet, check in was simple with clear instructions for the digital locks. We will be returning in the future.

Great modern room, lovely and warm especially in the freezing temperatures of November! Such a great find in the heart of Windermere. There was no noise throughout our stay and free parking is a bonus.

Unusual cottage. No kitchenette. Not allowed food in the cottage. No WiFi even though the host put the password in the book and via text message. Tv channels are limited. Spa bath is a nice touch but not enough hot water to fill it. Shower was nice once the hot water was restored in the morning… Sofa was so worn it had zero padding. Broken/cracked mirrored drawers and bedside table so posing sharp cut risk to people staying. Bed was comfy enough which was something. Wouldn’t come back.

Beautiful property in a really ideal location. Great as a base camp if you’re in the Lake District for walks etc. Only thing we’d change is not being allowed take aways in the room, we understand why but it made us eat out for all meals which isn’t ideal for a budget break. But as I said above, location is ideal and offers lots of choice for restaurants and cafes etc. No complaints about the property and would definitely return!

Property was in a good location not far to walk up to Windermere or down to bars and restaurants, small amount of parking. Stayed in the coach house. Check in was good. Cleanliness of banister there was settled dust, cracks in the cabinets. TV quality wasn’t great. Bathroom shower was good. Heating wasn’t an issue at all, warm in November. overall was a good stay. On the last night we got back late and car park isn’t lit very well my partner fell walking from the coach house to the car, there is a big drop which should be lit where it slopes down next to the garages, which did dampen the stay. Takeaway policy seems excessive after being out walking all day and booking that sort of place you would expect to be able to relax in the space of you wanted too.

Everything about our stay was excellent, good communication before we stayed. The room was beautiful, very clean and cosy. The bed was very comfortable. The room had everything we needed including a fan which was appreciated as the weather was very hot. Was impressed with the little snug area with a small sofa and a large enough tv, a mini fridge to keep our drinks cold and coffee making facilities. If I was in the area again I would definitely rebook.
