Haisthorpe Guest House

We had a fantastic stay at Haisthorpe House. Tim and Cathy were kind and attentive hosts that kept the entire place immaculate and had great local recommendations. The room was well appointed and comfortable, and the en-suite bathroom was really nice as well. We will definately stay here again.

The best Guest House in which I've stayed, over many years of visiting the Lake District. Bringing a partner to Windermere was a first for me, and Cathy and Tim went out of their way to make us both feel welcome and comfortable. We were given the "penthouse room" at the very top of the house, and it couldn't have been more perfect. Snug and cosy but with ample space and furnishings, it was super-clean and comfortable with a 5-star bed and bathroom. The house was quiet and peaceful, and struck me as very well sound-proofed: no chitter-chat or snoring from others coming through the walls! Haisthorpe House is situated right in the heart of Windermere and has a very attractive front yard, full of plants and flowers which invite you in visually, before you step inside the warm and well-appointed house. The breakfast was tasty and wide-ranging, and Cathy and Tim catered for both dietary and timing requirements without the blink of an eye! Their helpfulness with suggestions about local activities led to us having a fabulous day out, boat and steam train and all, at the Lakes Aquarium. We were able to leave our bikes in a secure and easily accessible spot at the back of the house, and it was as much fun coming back to the lovely Haisthorpe House as it was setting off to explore the beautiful Lake District! Thank you so much, Cathy and Tim, from both of us!

Thank you Cathy and Tim (proprietors of Haisthorpe House) for providing everything we needed for our stay in the Lake District. Ideally situated in Windermere and a stroll from the lake at Bowness. Our room was perfect and the whole guest house spotlessly clean. A very nice Continental breakfast had lovely touches such a home made preserves. Cathy and Tim were on hand and were very knowledgeable about the area which was a great help. Definitely highly recommend
