Paula was a delight! Loved her advice and helpful tips. Our little family room was perfect and so cozy. The house is perfectly located close to the Badderley Clock Tower bus stop, and perfectly situated between Bowness and Windermere. Breakfast is not to be missed! Everything was locally sourced and delicious. Highly recommend!

A very pleas stay
Overall - very good and would recommend. The DVD remote wasn’t working, but the chap was straight on to it, and the next guests will have a new remote. The breakfast sausages had a burnt layer on them, but we think that’s the way they fry them. Nice people and great accommodation.

The stay at Kirkwood Guest House was everything we could have asked for, Paula was so attentive and the breakfast service was exceptional. The location was a 10-minute walk between both Windermere and Bowness. Couldn’t have asked for anything more from a guesthouse.

A very nice, quiet place in a good location, a reasonably short walk to both Bowness and Windermere. The host, Paula, is very kind and helpful and I really enjoyed the wonderful breakfast! If I come back to the Lake District I'll stay there again.

The owners (husband and wife) are friendly and helpful. After we checked out in the morning , we left our luggage there for being picked up late evening. The owners kindly gave us a key for the front door, so we can come back to pick up luggage’s in our convenience. We appreciate their kindness.
