Bowness On Windermere Cottages

Just show me Bowness-on-Windermere Cottages

For lots to see and do amid breathtaking scenery, our Bowness-on-Windermere cottages promise all kinds of holiday fun for everyone come rain or shine.

This bustling tourist resort nestles on the shores of Windermere, so there's a strong focus on activities on and around the lake. Many excursions run from the bay, whether you opt for a traditional steamer or a wooden rowing boat. Learn how to sail, enjoy the thrills of water skiing or enjoy a relaxing day's fishing. Back on dry land, outdoor pursuits range from golf and horse riding to some wonderful walking routes. There are some great panoramic viewpoints - e.g. Orrest Head, Biskey Howe and Post Knott - all offering outstanding Lakeland vistas. If your stay in a Bowness-on-Windermere cottage is to celebrate a special occasion, treat yourself to a trip in a hot-air balloon - the views will take your breath away!

Facilities and attractions close to your Bowness cottage…

When you fancy a bite to eat, a welcoming brew or a pint of real ale, Bowness pulls out all the stops with numerous eating and drinking establishments. Shopping is great, too, so finding a keepsake or filling your Bowness cottage larder is never a problem.

Children will love The World of Beatrix Potter Attraction. You'll find some interesting old vessels at the Steamboat Museum. Blackwell is a superb example of an Arts and Crafts house. Add the Royalty Cinema, Old Laundry Theatre, plus fabulous gardens and heritage sites all within a short drive - no wonder Bowness cottages are such a popular choice!
