My wife and I have been to the Lake District 4 times and each time have stayed at the Ivy Bank. It is a fantastic B&B with excellent food, large, clean rooms, and very accommodating hosts. Dick is able to give great advice on walks in the area and Sue makes the best porridge I've ever tasted. We look forward... more

Ivy Bank is my second stay in a B&B in England. This is a very good accomodation near the trainstation and restaurants of Windermere. Dick and Sue are the owner and Dick has good contact with the travellers in the B&B without exaggerating. It is a guesthouse what you could expect with a good room with magazines about the Lake... more

My partner and I wanted a 2 night affordable break in the lakes to relax and do a bit of mountain biking. Having never visited the Southern Lakes before, we really couldn't have picked a better spot. Ivy Bank is ideally located off the main road, just a couple of minutes walk from windermere centre and a short stroll away... more

We had a wonderful time during our stay. Our hosts were very kind and made us feel like we were visiting family rather than just staying in an accomodation. There were several nice hiking paths as well as the town and lake all within walking distance. Our rooms were very well appointed with comfortable beds, nice shower facilities. The full... more

Me and my partner had a lovely two night stay in a snowy Windermere in March. The room was beautifully furnished and extremely cosy. It was immaculately cleaned, with a handy folder of information contained in the room. The owners were both extremely friendly and helpful. In fact, they changed our room as it became obvious that my 6'6" weren't... more

Delightful!

The Ivy Bank is a great find. We stayed here with our three year old daughter. The hosts are vey welcoming. The rooms are tastefully decorated. The place is spotless. The location is walking distance from Windermere. One great thing about the Ivy Bank is the parking which is not on the street like a lot of B&Bs in Winderemere.... more

We always stay at Ivy Bank B & B when visiting the Lakes. In our opinion, it is quite simply, and without exaggeration, one of the best B & B's in Windermere and probably in the whole of the lake District. What you get is value for money, clean, tidy, cosy and very comfortable rooms and the owners are extremely... more
