About Virginia Cottage Guest House
A breakfast menu that caters for dogs as well as guests sets Virginia Cottage Guest House apart from the usual Windermere stopover. This adults-only guest house on Kendal Road has ten en-suite rooms, each with tea and coffee making facilities, and a straightforward focus on getting the basics right: comfortable beds, well-kept rooms and a proper breakfast to start the day.
Beyond the bedroom, facilities are simple but useful, including free WiFi and luggage storage for those breaking up a longer trip through the Lakes. Pets are welcome throughout, which fits well with the surrounding walking and cycling country. The guest house is run with a personal touch, and staff are known for helping out with local recommendations and going beyond the basics of a standard check-in.
The location on Kendal Road puts guests within easy walking distance of Windermere's shops, pubs and restaurants, and the surrounding area offers golf, fishing, horse riding and watersports for those wanting to get outdoors. It's a practical, well-placed base for exploring the Lake District rather than a destination in itself.

What guests say
Stayed for 2 nights over this Easter weekend. Managed to jump on a last minute cancellation and we were very lucky to do so. Nice cosy rooms, very friendly people running this place and made us feel welcome during our stay. Room was traditional but nice, booked the spa room with the jacuzzi bath which was great. Great location, everything is within a couple minutes walk in the centre of bowness, meaning we didn’t have to get any transport during our entire stay.

Just had a fantastic stay with Angus and Sherri, located right in the heart of Bowness, the room was excellent, bed comfortable and the breakfast was first class. Will definitely be back.

The owner has thought of everything you could possibly need in a room while staying away from home. We would not hesitate to book again especially being able to bring our 2 four legged friends
