I wouldn't dream of staying elsewhere than Oakfold House, in its quiet corner of Bowness. The proprietors go out of their way to extend a warm welcome to their spotlessly clean hotel and the rooms are charming. There's a cosy lounge or a lovely area for sitting outdoors next to a small pond in the evening sunshine. Add to this... More

This is a great B and B - tastefully decorated, spotlessly clean and everything has an air of quality about it. The hosts Michael and Michael are very helpful, recommending restaurants, cooking a fab breakfast and in our case helping us to dig our car out of the snow in the carpark and pushing us onto the road - thanks...

We only stayed for one night, but the stay was first class. Our room was lovely, comfortable and immaculate. The breakfast was very tasty and hot. Michael met us when we arrived he was very pleasant and informative. We will stay again hopefully soon.

This was our third return trip to Oakfold House and as ever it does not disappoint. Location is superb - an easy 5 minute walk down into Bowness or a slightly longer 20 min up the road into Windemere. Rooms are very clean and well laid out, we were on the top floor in Room 6 with a view over... More

We recently stayed at this B&B for our wedding anniversary. We found the B&B to be very comfortable. There was always plenty of choice for breakfast with a range of cooked food, continental style breakfast and cereals/yoghurts to choose from. The owner acknowledged our anniversary by kindly giving us a card and chocolates which was a nice touch. The location... More

Just had a 2 night stay at Oakfold House. Very good location - walking distance from Bowness where there's some nice shops, restaurants and the lake (for boat trips). B+B is nicely decorated, was very quiet and has off road parking. Room comfortable with a bottle of wine on arrival, which was a nice gesture (as we booked online). Some... More
