Delightful stay at the Brown Horse Inn, 5 minutes drive from Lake Windermere in a quiet location. Very popular - always a good sign. We had a lovely room (No 5) with views over the fields and rolling hills. Nothing was too much trouble and David gave us some good advice about where to go, including Beatrix Potter's house, Hill Top and the flagship Lakeland store which were close by. Excellent dinner in the evening (including a truly amazing cheese & almond souffle) and a delicious full English breakfast the following morning. Our thanks to Jake, Lucy, Michael, Craig, David & Shaun the award-winning chef! Parking is available at the rear, there's a beer garden in front (great views from the terrace) and a play area for kids at the back. We'd love to stay again one day.

We booked a meal for Thursday 25th July. We were spending 5 days in Bowness. It had a good choice of menu. We all picked different meals.The Staff were very friendly and helpful. We all enjoyed our meals very much and would return again. I would recommend it.

We went here on Sunday for a roast dinner having had it recommended to us. We were very pleased with our meal, the food was amazing, it was the best roast we’ve ever had in the lakes! The staff were very friendly and helpful and the atmosphere was lovely too- we’ll definitely be back again- can’t recommend this place enough! The lady serving us was great as well, we ordered the Serrano ham croquettes to share for a starter and she took them off the bill- I was confused by this but when I asked she said they took longer to come than they had intended so they were on the house, we couldn’t believe it as we thought they came out in good time but thought this was very lovely of them!

The food is delicious and staff are lovely and friendly. Rooms are comfortable and clean . The bar area and restaurant are great . Breakfast is good although on a personal note , I would like to have avacado as a choice . Toilets in bar are looking a bit tired and old compared to rest of facilities .

Had dinner on high recommendation. However, I was so disappointed with my meal. I had a crispy chicken burger, which look fabulous, I May add, but OMG it was the most tasteless bland chicken burger I have ever eaten. Absolutely no seasoning or flavour in the chicken or the breadcrumbs! My husband had the haddock, which was nice, but too much batter. Staff very friendly, service spot on.

Tried this inn on previous posts on trip advisor nothing to blow your socks off just average pub food the menu isn’t that interesting .. the ale is very good though it was very busy and the noise was extremely loud with people talking loudly maybe it’s normal here certainly better pubs and restaurants around the area.

Pleasant room. Only downside very cold when we went in. Disappointing as we were asked, and gave, our arrival time to ensure 'a warm welcome'! Lovely dinner & excellent breakfast. The hotel looked very Christmas.
