Room 8

Rum Doodle was almost everything we could of asked for. Was a beautiful building with off road parking available. It was located half way between the busy lakeside and the top of Windermere. The staff were very friendly and the breakfast was a great way to start the day. The only issue we had was in room 8, that we had booked, the bathtub was in the corner of the bedroom. This was against the slanted ceiling, which made showering impossible. This was not mentioned in the room description, otherwise we would have selected a different room.

Our stay was enjoyable, however the room had a bath with shower attached within the bedroom . This would have been ok had my husband not been very tall. This is not an ideal room as the ceiling is on a slant and low.

The Rum Doodle was in a great location with easy private parking. The hosts made me feel welcome and the room was exactly as shown. Great breakfast menu and they made a packed breakfast for my last day due to an early start.

Gorgeous Stay

Absolutely gorgeous stay at Rum Doodle. Staff couldn’t have been nicer, felt welcomed from the moment they met us at the door. The room was decorated beautifully, exactly what we needed for a few days away. All sorts of amenities and extras - the breakfast options were vast and really tasty. The only thing worth mentioning is parking is up a very tight small hill and when there is a lot of cars in it does get a little difficult. Nothing that would stop us from making a return though. Will absolutely be booking again in future. Thank you for a thoroughly lovely stay!
