This was our 3rd stay at Rum Doodle but definitely not our last. The room was spacious and very clean, how they keep the glass so clean I will never know. We choose this room as you get your breakfast served in the room. There is plenty to choose from and it’s all very tasty. The lady who served it (didn’t get her name ) was so lovely and friendly. The B&B is only a short walk to the shops and the lake. It’s a very quiet place as well. We will book again when we come back to The Lake District. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a fantastic B&B

Had such a fab time staying at Rum Doodle. Stayed for 2 nights. Brilliant staff, great location, room was the perfect size for us, clean and all essentials topped up, breakfast was 5 stars alone (tasted amazing, great selection and set up). Walking distance to the main area with some great restaurants and bars nearby. Our favourites were Rum Nicky, Rastelli's Vinegar Jones and the Angel Inn. It's also a great location if your doing boat trips and Beatrix potter world. On the way home we also managed to do the lakeside aquarium which is only down the road. We really wanted to give the place 5 stars but unfortunately we didn't sleep on either night due to the couple above us. They were playing loud music from 1am - 6am with constant loud noises and talking. You could literally hear everything. We were in room 1 on the ground floor. To be fair it was a last minute booking so we knew it was a risk and the staff do give you a number to call for any problems but we assumed that meant problems with room (something not working / safety issue). We can't fault the staff or anything else about the hotel so will definitely return but in future will make sure we book a room on the top floor.

One of the nicest rooms (CHUTE Room 6) we have ever stayed in. The B & B is ideally situated for a short walk into Bowness and Windermere. The room was so lovely and clean. The four poster bed was very comfy and breakfast was just amazing. Everyone was so welcoming and pleasant. I wouldn't change a thing. Will definitely stay again.

Top floor room was like a suite with separate living room. Owner very kindly collected us as we got lost on foot on our way. Accommodation is up a side road up hill from the main drag, and steps up to the front door. Food was good. Nearest bus stop is at the bottom of the road.

Absolutely amazing stay at Rum Doodle B&B. Room gorgeous. Lovely decoration & beautiful old furniture. Breakfast to die for. Compliments to the chef Wasn't too sure about the bath in the bedroom, but it worked out OK, although some nights, a quick shower would have been preferable. The B&B is situated halfway between Windermere & Bowness, which was great. The only thing that would improve the room would be a full-length mirror. We will definitely be back. Loved every second ❤️

We loved our 2 night stay at Rum Doodle! Our room was beautifully decorated, bed and pillows very comfy and we particularly appreciated the small touches (Flannels, robes, wine on arrival, breakfast service on the room).. Service was impeccable, breakfast beautiful, location quiet and near enough to the Lakes. Our best room yet in Windermere - beautiful view whilst enjoying breakfast in our room - we'll definitely come back. PS: parking is a bit tight, but there are extra spaces at the front of the property and on the side streets.

A quaint and quirky B&B we absolutely loved it. We stayed in the Summit room top of the house it was amazing, views from windows were brill watching the jets flying through the hills was amazing. The whole B&B was spotless, the hosts were amazing, friendly and nothing was too much trouble. We were greeted with coffee and biscuits when we arrived and info given regarding our room etc. The bed was so comfy I didn’t want to get out of it. Everything you need including toiletries, towels and drinks were available our room. Attention to detail was amazing, we certainly will be back. The breakfast menu was plentiful but the cooked breakfast was the best ! Thank you for our amazing stay see you soon ! X
