small tv stale biscuits weak shower pressure
paula and richard seemed alright, i guess.
The tv was ridiculously small. It was like watching a postage stamp. also, the biscuits left in the room were stale, a unforgivable crime. the shower pressure was so weak it barely qualified as a drizzle. I reminded me of i was being gently exhaled upon.

Richard and Paula are amazing hosts. The breakfast offered great value and was delicious. The location is excellent. Windermere town centre is to the right, and Bowness-on-Windermere is to the left.
The room I stayed in was lovely, but it was a bit small.
