“Windermere Central operates more like a well-maintained, centrally-located hostel than a full-service hotel, offering a no-fuss arrival process that's perfect for independent travelers; dog lovers will also appreciate the pet-friendly policy, payable via an honor system. The rooms, though compact, provide comfortable lodging near shops and restaurants, making it a solid base for exploring the Lake District.”
