The Old Courthouse

Built in 1843, The Old Courthouse is one of the oldest and most charming buildings in Bowness-on-Windermere. Just minutes from Bowness Bay, the hotel offers colourful rooms with en suite facilities.

Made from Lakeland stone, The Old Courthouse was once the village police station and jail. Just a short stroll from Lake Windermere, the hotel is centrally located for exploring the hills and fells of the beautiful Lake District. Windermere Steamboat Museum is just 10 minutes’ walk away.

A freshly cooked full English breakfast is served each morning in the traditional dining room, with vegetarian and lighter options also available. There are also a number of restaurants and pubs within comfortable walking distance.

The large, airy rooms offer tea and coffee facilities, hairdryers and a radio. All rooms also feature a TV, and are individually decorated with wooden furniture and bright linens. Free Wi-Fi is accessible, and private parking is also available.
