Staveley is a lovely, working and historic village with a celebrated gastro-pub and the Hawkshead Brewery, with good food available in both as well as in the much-loved café and the fish and chip shop. There is a grocer, a butcher, an award-winning baker and pizzeria, an artisan ice cream maker, a coffee roaster, a cycle super-store, a garage, a railway station and more. Here the River Gowan flows through the village and meets the River Kent, which provides a peaceful backdrop to the main street. Staveley is located just 12 miles off the M6, 4.5 miles from Kendal and 3.5 miles to Windermere and the popular tourist magnet of Bowness-on Windermere, offering a wide range of restaurants and gastropubs serving every possible type of cuisine you could want, from takeaway food to fine dining. You’ll find there an abundance of bars and pubs offering locally produced ales, cocktails and guest craft beers. Here you can take the Windermere steamers to Lakeside at the Southern point of the Lake and Ambleside in the North. You’ll also find several popular tourist attractions including The Beatrix Potter Attraction, which is great fun, or Brockhole where older children can enjoy a treetop safari on the high ropes. In Kendal you’ll find more of the major high street brands and supermarkets. It is itself a lovely market town and excellent for a day of sightseeing and shopping. If you love the outdoors, you’ll find wonderful walks from your doorstep, and a short drive will open up the best the Lake District National Park has to offer with an abundance of picturesque mountain landscapes along with some of the most stunning scenery, arguably, anywhere in the country.

Very good
Reviews are presented in chronological order, subject to a moderation process, and verified unless otherwise labelled.
We've stayed at this property several times in the past 18 months or so and have always rated in highly in reviews. This time around we felt that the fittings need refreshed. The sofa is stained and the carpets are in need of a clean/renewal.
But we'd still come back again. The fittings are modern, the location is peaceful and local amenities are just a short walk away.

Wonderful location - woods, rivers, fells all available from the doorstep.
Wonderful location - woods, rivers, fells all available from the doorstep. Swam in Gurnal Dubs on New year's day! Dark sky area so fabulous stars. Well designed, warm, studio and furnished to a high standard. The air fryer was a revelation!Few details would have made it 5 star- plates are cracked, some items were not clean on arrival (chopping board, teapot) and an extra blanket/more logs would have be nice given it was winter. Handsoap, toilet roll, 1 teatowel was available but not enough was provided, especially as no washer available. Teabags and oil or any kind of welcome pack would have been nice. Small things but they do make it feel more welcoming.
