About the Old England Hotel Windermere
On the shores of England's largest lake, the Macdonald Old England Hotel and Spa boasts unrivaled views of Windermere. Beautiful scenery abounds in this treasured countryside, much of it preserved by the foresight of children's author Beatrix Potter who invested her book earnings into buying parcels of land in the Lake District, ensuring its preservation when she bequeathed it to the National Trust.
The Old England Hotel Windermere is a grand building of magnificent Victorian splendor with an extravagance of space and height rarely seen in later establishments, built when British industry dominated the world.
Rooms and Dining
The elegant Victorian mansion at the heart of the Old England Hotel Windermere is superbly furnished with fine antiques and period features and its 106 bedrooms offer you a relaxing nights sleep. Enjoy a drink in the bar, then dinner in the candlelit Vinand Restaurant, which provides panoramic views as well as fine fare. Gardens (with outdoor games of draughts) lead down to the Old England Hotel Windermere's own jetties.
Meetings and Events
This Windermere hotel offers conference and training facilities that can be tailored to suit your needs. The reconfiguration and total refurbishment of former conference rooms have created four different sized meeting rooms, from small syndicate room seating four to a large training room holding up to a hundred. The meeting spaces at the Old England Hotel Windermere all contain state of the art technology including plasma screens, electronic screens, video, the very latest sound systems including hearing loops for the deaf, and high speed internet access.
Leisure
