“At The Bay House Lake View, the proprietors Phil and Jill cultivate a welcoming atmosphere that's immediately apparent. Its prime Bowness-on-Windermere position places you steps from the lake and town amenities, while rooms, often with lake views, are notably comfortable and spotless. The Cumbrian breakfast, prepared with care, provides a robust start to a day exploring the Lakes.”
