Autumn Leaves Guest House enjoys a superb location in the heart of Windermere, making it easy to explore the town and Lake District. The rooms are generally considered cosy and comfortable, with some offering lovely views from large windows; however, some guests have found certain rooms to be on the smaller side.

Excellent Breakfast and Location

central location delicious breakfast
I appreciated the central location, a short walk to bowness pier. easy parking was available near the hotel. rob and tanya were fabulous hosts, very attentive to detail and they made sure i had everything i needed. breakfast was delicious. It really set me up for the day.
the pillow was not really comfortable. i had some trouble sleeping well because of it. perhaps different pillows could solve this problem .
