B&B's Lake District
 

Any B&B recommendations for the southern Lake District? Windermere, Grasmere, etc.

If you would check Smoothhound.co.uk, there are quite a few good deals around.

Cedar Manor. Outstanding rooms, fair price. They have a web site (http://www.cedarmanor.co.uk/). Just outside of Windermere on the road toward Ambleside.<BR><BR>Also, I like the Sun (though a couple of the rooms are small) in Coniston.<BR><BR>I also like the Wateredge in Ambleside, but it doesn't really qualify costwise as a B&amp;B.

Biscuit-<BR><BR>WE stayed at Michael;s Nook Manor House last year-It was Fantastic--The restaurant is open to the public by reservation and the chef is as good as any Michelin starred chef we have seen!!<BR><BR>The Manor house is sooooooooo neat- the public spaces are filled with tons of antiques - all owned by the owners as are these wonderful GREAT DANES that have run of the house...<BR><BR>Our room had a fabulous 4 poster bed and overlooked the front of the property which were awesome gardens...<BR><BR>Breakfast can be served in your room on a silver service!!<BR><BR>Go back--YES-!!!

Biscuit: go to the top of the message board (currently #4) or search on &quot;Lake District Advice&quot; for my description of The Old Vicaredge at Ambleside (about two miles from Windemere). About $55 to $60 per night. Comfortable and homey rather than luxurious. Have a great trip.

Biscuit: Of course, that should be The Old Vicarage. Sorry!
