Great place to stay in good location.
Great place to stay. The views from window were lovely, staff were very helpful and friendly. The only slight problem is that parking is limited and could be tight.

We had a very pleasant stay at the Woodlands. Our room was a reasonable size and fully equipped. The bed was comfortable. There are some signs of age showing however, everything was clean and for the rate charged we felt we had excellent value. The breakfast was outstanding.

Great location and very charming
Really enjoyed our stay. Location was great in between Windermere and Bowness, easy walk to both. Lovely breakfast and charming room. Very quaint. About 15 rooms, they are not huge rooms and have a small bathroom.
Only weird thing was the hotels direction on map led us to a completely different place so we arrived at the wrong accommodation at first. Would recommend Woodlands, we liked it a lot.

Great stay
Beautiful stay. Great location, beds comfy and breakfast is great. All the staff are really nice and hard working too.
Only downside is the noise from other guests either walking around their rooms, banging doors or snoring next door.

I only have one gripe about my stay, our room was great, roomy and comfortable but was situated under the dinning area so we were rudely awakened at 7am with the sounds of footsteps, chairs scraping and talking from above and there was never anyone on reception to complain to, breakfast was great but beware of room 17

Delicious breakfast!
Woodlands is very cute and the beds were comfortable and the breakfast was delicious! The only issue is that I wish my bed was made, so housekeeping is not very good.
