About Rum Doodle B&B
Rum Doodle B&B suits couples and adult travellers looking for a peaceful, no-fuss base in the Lake District rather than a family holiday spot. Set on Sunny Bank Road in Windermere, it's an adults-only property with nine rooms, each en-suite and individually styled, giving it a more personal feel than a standard hotel.
Breakfast is a genuine highlight, with a good variety on offer and the option to have it brought to your room. Free WiFi, drinks in room and a garden add to the comfort, while 24 hour reception and free on-site parking make arriving and settling in straightforward. Staff are consistently described as attentive and welcoming, which shapes much of the stay.
The location works well for walkers and cyclists, with routes right on the doorstep, and the town itself is within walking distance for pubs, restaurants and shops. Further afield there's golf, fishing, horse riding and watersports nearby, making it a practical base for exploring the wider Lake District National Park beyond the immediate area.
What guests say
We stayed for 2 nights. The room was clean and well presented on arrival. We were greeted and given an over view of our stay. Ellie guided us through day trips and where to eat in the evening. It was lovely and quiet and the perfect spot to commute from. Highly recommend. Thank you again for our stay 🙏🏻

We had a really lovely stay at Rum Doodle! The rooms were very clean, tidy, and modern, which made it feel comfortable and relaxing throughout our stay. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, always happy to help with anything we needed. One of the highlights was definitely the breakfast as it was excellent!!! The only slight downside is that it’s a bit of a walk to the local town, which might not suit everyone. However, for us, it wasn’t a dealbreaker at all. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and would definitely return as we absolutely loved it! :)

Stayed here 11 years ago and still as good. New owner since then but he and his staff could not have been more helpful. We had room 6 with the four poster bed and breakfast was brought to our room in the morning. We were lucky with the weather so it was nice sitting there watching the world go by. Breakfast was amazing with proper butter which felt very extravagant. Room 6 is very spacious which suited us. There is a small carpark so for us it was a matter of parking up and then bussing everywhere. The stops are about 5 minutes walk away. Hope to return again sometime. Thanks to everyone for looking after us so well.
