Wonderful
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travellers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
Everything was comfortable and clean. Loved the extra space on our room. (And Mark even upgraded us!)
Location was steps from Bowness highlights. Would love to return if possible.
Arrived 15:15 where we met another guest in car park. He went 5mins ahead of us to check in. When we arrived he was sitting at a table outside. He said he'd rang the bell. We also rang bell. Greeted by Mark holding a baby (adults only?) saying "Yes" as though who are you? Taken aback we explained "we have a booking." "You better come in." We were then told, due to a bereavement the cleaner could not make it, so the room not ready and will be an hour. "You can wait here or go for a walk. "YOU DONT HAVE ANY OPTION REALLY." We then had to leave our luggage in an unsecure room with other luggage. The other guest had travelled for 5 hours and was looking forward to getting into his room, and having a cuppa. We were not offered anything!!!! We were informed mark knew about situation at midday over 3 hours earlier, but didn't think to text us. YET!!! On our last day he emailed and texted at 9am reminding me we had to be out at 10:30. Imo this text was intended to hit notification tone on my phone to ensure we were awake!!!!! We did not see him again throughout our 2 night 3 day stay, untill we were leaving. Where he stood by front door like some kind of guard ensuring you left by 10:30. The other guest like us was not impressed either, and like us won't be back. Yes understand unforseen circumstances! But he had 3 hours notice. Put tea/coffee juice out? You're in hospitality......Be hospitable? Disappointed as cheaper options were available at time of booking. Not impressed!!!!!!!
Friendly welcome and also farewell from Mark - Lovely place and well placed to do all we wanted to do at an affordable price. Maybe just needs a new firmer mattress on the bed.
Good communication from the host. Nothing to not like about the guest house. Everything provided for and lovely and quiet with close access to all amenities. Reason for the 4 star is that it is no frills. If you’re looking for a basic guest house at a reasonable price I would recommend it.
Mark was very friendly and accommodating to our questions or requests. The room was very clean and was everything that we needed for a base following our biking activities and a wedding evening do. Only downside was that you couldn’t eat breakfast on-site but we found plenty of places that did breakfast in Bowness within walking distance down the road.
Excellent location and the room was spotless, a great base to visit the lakes and the short walk down to the lake Windermere.
Mark and Grace are the perfect hosts would highly recommend.
Check-in was easy and very pleasant. My room was lovely and snelled fresh and clean. There was a hospitality tray with tea, coffee biscuits. Mark was very helpful in outlining the area, and directing me to the lake. As a solo traveller I felt safe and comfortable at Elim House.
