A Cosier Side of Windermere โ˜”

Not every Lake District day comes with blue skies, but thatโ€™s part of the charm.

A rainy Saturday is a good excuse for a slower wander around Windermere, a cosy cafรฉ stop and a little less rushing around.

Then head back to The Howbeck, get comfortable and enjoy a properly relaxing evening.

Relax your way...
There isn't one perfect way to relax.
Maybe it's coffee in the garden before the day begins.
A lakeside walk through Windermere.
A few hours enjoying the Hydro Wellness Club.
Dinner at one of the town's wonderful restaurants.
Or simply returning to your room for a peaceful night's sleep.
Whatever your perfect day looks like, we're here to help you enjoy it.

Midweek Escapes

There's something special about Windermere during the week.

The pace slows, walking routes feel quieter and you'll often find more space to enjoy the cafรฉs, shops and lakeside views.

If you're able to travel Monday to Thursday, a midweek stay offers the perfect opportunity to experience the Lake District at its most peaceful.

Take a well-earned break and let us do the rest.
