I expent two nights with my family in Fir Trees Guest House and I am very happy with the warm welcoming and the high standar of the rooms and service. It is in a lovely location and very close to town. Our room was massive, the house very beautiful and well maintained. Breakfast very nice and good choice. Thank you... More

This is a perfect place to stay mid-way between Windermere and Bowness. It is full of character, that includes our wonderful hosts Bob and Bea. Nothing was too much trouble even when we asked to put our Champagne in their fridge! and they weren't daunted by the fact we were on a girly weekend, and may giggle alot!!(we did) We... More

We were extremely disappointed in our experience with this B&B. After making our booking and having it confirmed we were informed just prior to our proposed visit that there was no booking. After forwarding the email confirming the booking from Bea, we were informed that we would be unable to stay as it was the weekend and we were only... More

Ideally situated mid-way between Windermere town centre and Bowness. Our hosts were very friendly and on our return from climbing Helm Crag in deteriating weather in the late afternoon we... More

As other reviewers have observed, spotlessly clean rooms, warm and comfortable. Wonderfully friendly owners and staff, who made a big fuss of us and our children - whose foibles (including wanting ketchup on toast for breakfast - which was a new one on us, too!) were coped with beautifully. We had Room 4 - a family room, with good-sized real... More

We have just returned from our 4th stay at Fir Trees. We stayed in room 4 (Family Room) and it was spacious, comfortable and spotlessly clean. Easily big enough for 4 people, Breakfast is great and there is lots of it, there's plenty of variety to suit anyone, including vegetarians. Bob and Bea are very accommodating, nothing is too much...

We stayed one night at the Fir Trees and were very satisfied. The room was clean and comfortable, with all the amenities we would expect. Bea is an energetic and gracious hostess who helped us a great deal. Specifically, we spent the day of our arrival on an all-day bus tour of the Lake District and Bea allowed us to... More
