Click for travel directions The Belsfield Hotel Windermere occupies a commanding location in Bowness, overlooking Windermere, England’s largest lake. Windermere possesses a mysterious and intriguing charm that enchants many thousands of visitors every year. Windermere is popular with yachtsmen and windsurfers. Traditional steamers and pleasure cruisers meander across the lake, offering the perfect way of viewing the lake and its surroundings. The Belsfield Hotel is in a prime location for exploring the Lake District. The pretty Lakeland resort of Bowness-on-Windermere and of course Lake Windermere itself are both within easy reach, and it is easy to see why The Belsfield is such a popular choice.

The Lake District is the UK’s largest and most frequently visited National Park. Its 900 square miles of rugged fells, plunging valleys and breathtaking lakes and tarns have been an irresistible draw for centuries, from the romantic poets such as William Wordsworth to the modern day visitor. Some come to conquer the demanding and unforgiving terrain, some come for the thrills of water sports and boating, while others prefer the gentler pace and come to simply appreciate the picturesque landscapes and old world charm of the area.

The Belsfield Hotel Windermere has been a popular Lakeland getaway since 1845. Set in 6 acres of beautiful gardens and commanding panoramic views of the area, its location means it gives hotel guests the option of exploring the delights of Bowness-on-Windermere, or escaping to a haven of calm and tranquility; the best of both worlds. The Belsfield Hotel has 64 traditionally furnished bedrooms, a popular restaurant with breathtaking views over the lake, well-equipped meeting rooms and excellent leisure facilities including a heated indoor swimming pool. With its attractive gardens, it is an idyllic setting for weddings. Pretty villages and towns such as Ambleside and Windermere populate the shores of Lake Windermere. The picture postcard village of Bowness-on-Windermere is a magnet for tourists and in summer is a bustling, lively throng with quaint shops, quintessentially English tearooms and well-known restaurants and Lakeland inns.
