On first entering it felt a little clinical and having stayed in boathouses before we were a little disappointed. However the boathouse grew on us and the sun sets were amazing to watch over the lake.
The boathouse has everything you need except wifi or any DVD’s to watch. The TV speakers are not great either and a new TV in the living area would help. The shower is amazing also.
All in all now one of our favourite places to stay due to the above.

Internally very clean, a little let down by many spider webs outside, and external glass not clean.

Fabulous private location on Lake Windermere with stunning views from the living area. The underfloor heating meant we were never cold. We used a mobile broadband device and firestick to get internet, netflix etc and it all worked well. Would love to go back.

Lovely boathouse beautiful views
One thing I would suggest is the settee in the living room would be ideal as a bed setee very romantic looking at the stars at night, bigger tv and maybe WiFi
