Thank you very much for taking the time to review your recent stay at Cedar Manor. All our rooms now have king or superking beds with the exception of Claife Heights, which is a double - a cosy but well appointed room. We look forward to welcoming you back for another relaxing break in the not too distant future. Best... More

Owners Jonathan and Caroline make staying at this intimate, lovely hotel a real treat. Even in busy Windermere Cedar Manor is enough off the street to make you think you are in a rural setting. Had a wonderful dinner and as others have noted the breakfast is plentiful with many delicious options. Very romantic setting. We had hoped for a... More

This first visit to Cedar Manor proved to be as wonderful as it's reviews stated. Every aspect from first welcome from Jonathon and Caroline, to the beautiful flowers which they sourced for my wife's birthday proved to be a master-class in Customer Care. Dinner and breakfasts were superb and attention to detail second to none. Caroline's personal touch has gifted... More

We couldn't have scored a better place for our brief stay in the Lake District. I'm not sure how many rooms the Cedar Manor has but it couldn't be too many, which made staying here a bit like staying at your cousin's house, combined with the facilites and privacy of a hotel room, combined with the food of your favourite...

We stayed here October 2012 and really enjoyed it. Staff were genuinely nice, room was beautiful, location was good, food was high quality but very expensive....breakfast was divine with lots of choice, it is expensive to stay here but worth it.

We had a wonderfully enjoyable stay at Cedar Manor. Caroline and Jonathan, together with their team, did an excellent job and we really appreciated the great service they provided. Our room was very comfortable and cosy, and it was a pleasure to spend our time relaxing in it when the weather proved uncooperative. The food in the restaurant was wonderful,... More
