About Lakes Hotel & Spa

Lakes Hotel & Spa puts a spa stay within easy reach of Bowness-on-Windermere’s shops, places to eat and boat departures. Spend the day exploring Lake Windermere, then return for a swim, a treatment or a drink.

Accommodation ranges from compact bedrooms to suites and apartments. The choice makes it worth comparing the room descriptions carefully: views, outdoor space and the style of accommodation vary.

Rooms, hot-tub suites and apartments

Choose from snug and cosy rooms, larger doubles and suites. Private hot tubs feature in selected accommodation only, while lake views are available in certain rooms and may cost extra. Book the specific room type that includes the features you want.

Exterior rooms and apartments are in the spa building and offer a simpler style than the main hotel bedrooms. Some include kitchen facilities, but equipment varies. Check the room’s layout, access and facilities before booking, particularly for a family stay.

Time to unwind at Lakes Spa

Guest spa access includes an indoor pool, two feature hot tubs, sauna, steam room and cold plunge pool. Poolside seating and a bar provide space to relax between swims.

Elemis treatments are available separately. Reserve treatments ahead of your stay and check what your package includes. Confirm current opening hours and children’s swimming sessions when planning your visit.

Dining and drinks

Mizumi serves Asian fusion dishes, while the Cocktail Bar & Lakes Terrace offers a more relaxed setting for food and drinks. A traditional pub and poolside bar add further options during your stay.

Afternoon tea is also available by advance booking. Check current menus, opening times and any age restrictions for the venue you plan to visit, and discuss dietary requirements when reserving a table.

Before you book

Compare your chosen room, meal inclusions and cancellation terms. Parking charges apply to third-party accommodation bookings, so include parking in your budget. Check the provider’s current terms before paying.

Hot-tub accommodation has age and occupancy restrictions. Children have separate swimming times and require adult supervision. Contact the hotel about family arrangements, accessibility or any specific room requirements before booking.
