Very welcoming B&B, great hosts Georgeene and Mark made the stay delightful. Excellent spotless accommodation , and cannot fault the cooked breakfast and service. Very easy to find with great parking facilities, and close walking distance to all the delights of this Great Lakes town. Would highly recommend and look forward to staying again Many thanks

Our long weekend in the Lake District was enhanced by staying at the Sandown. It is well positioned on the edge of Bowness, a pleasant walk down to Lake Windermere. Our room was furnished to a high standard, with a comfortable bed and had everything we needed. The dining room and lounge are delightfully furnished and are light and spacious.... More

We were greeted with a warm welcome on our arrival and provided with useful information about the local area, such as good pubs and restaurants. Our double room was spotlessly clean, well-furnished in a modern style. Located a short walk from the Lake and town centre, Sandown is in an ideal position for the local amenities. Breakfast was really nice,... More

We stayed here for three nights with our dog (Dougal). Georgeene and Mark were very friendly and made us feel welcome, they also seemed very happy to allow our dog to stay, on the condition that he would not be left alone in the room. We were grateful to be given a dog bowl without having to ask for one!... More

I had a two night stay at this guest house over Easter and can not recommend it enough. I booked my stay through LateRooms, and once my booking was made, I received an email from Georgeene to confirm my booking and was given instructions on how to get there, which I thought was great service. The house is perfectly located... More
