Lovely stay with great hosts.
Pam and Collin were very accommodating especially waiting for our check in when we were delayed. They provided excellent breakfasts and descriptions of where to go and what to see in the area. We were in Room 3 which faced the street and we anticipated street noise. However, the room was surprisingly quiet and a portable fan inside the room helped out. The room was comfortable with several amenities that exceeded hotels we had stayed at in other locations. A Wifi extender was added to the room which provided exceptional speed. Convenient 10 minute walk into Windermere or longer into Bowness.

An amazing hotel in an amazing place to visit
Firgarth combines the friendliness of a B&B with the service of a great hotel. We have literally zero complaints about anything, and only good things to say about it. The first moment we arrived we were greeted and offered coffee/tea. Since it was our first time in Lake District, they gave us great information and leaflets on the area and helped us get the best out of our trip. The breakfast was superbly done, probably the highlight of the trip. A highly recommended hotel!

Outstanding, 5 stars!
Me and my girlfriend were looking for a last minute long weekend and this hotel caught our eye due to the height rating and proximity to Windermere and it did not disappoint! The owners of the Firgarth were exceptionally welcomeing, friendly and knowledgable of the local area. Located just a 5/10 minutes walk from the top Windermere town centre where there are a number of pubs and places to eat to suit all tastes, this was perfect for us on an evening. For only a few pounds you are able to get a taxi into Windermere centre. Also having a couple shorts walks in close proximity means the car isn't always required. The breakfast and cleanliness at the Fargarth is outstanding! I've never been in such a clean guest house! The breakfast was very well stocked with fresh fruits, fresh hot croissants, as well as the usual cereals, juices and English breakfasts options ordered to your requirements which were from quality ingredients. All in all an excellent place to say can't recommend the Fargath enough!

Better than home from home
Just excellent - wonderful welcoming hosts who cannot do enough for you. From the moment you first walk in and are greeted with fresh tea and coffee ,whilst your bags are brought to your room until you leave and they bring your bags down, nothing is too much trouble. I have complete confidence in recommending Firgarth and Pam and Colin.

We had a wonderful stay from the very fist time that we entered through the front door. We were warmly welcomed and provided with a tea and biscuits, at the same time giving us information and leaflets about things to do in the area. We were shown to our room and our cases were carried up stairs for us. Our room was bright and airy and very well furnished and maintained to an extremely high standard. The bathroom was beautifully clean and light. The towels provided were a very high standard. There was an excellent choice for breakfast and nothing was too much trouble for mine hosts Colin & Pam.

Gem of a hotel
One of the best hotels we have stayed at in 35 years of travel. Attentive to all your needs. Immaculate room, superb breakfast and a great nights sleep. Also ideally located with parking. 10min walk into centre of Windermere, or 2min in car.

Amazing Bed and Breakfast
Staying at the Firgarth was wonderful. It is perfectly situated about a 12 minute walk outside of Windermere (and from the primary train station). The breakfast was fabulous every single day, and I always looked forward to it. It is an easy walk down to Bowness-on-Windermere with lots of amazing views of the lake, pastures, and hills to climb. I had lots of fun just walking around that area. The only potential issue is the internet in the region can be a bit sporadic at times. Having lived in similar remote locations, I doubt this is limited to the Firgarth. Also, if you are visiting Windermere for good internet service, you really have the wrong idea about visiting a place known for its natural beauty. On a brief customer service aside, the owners were always willing help me find my way around. Further, I was offered a free upgrade to a larger room after the first night without any prompting from me. I actually declined it as I loved the smaller room (this should tell you how good the rooms are). The bottom line? Stay here. It is amazing, and the owners are simply fabulous.

Amazing little B&B!
What a fantastic stay! Pam and Colin were extremely welcoming and gave us good advice of things to do, local walks, buses to take etc. Room was spotless and comfortable, bathroom very modern and clean. Cooked breakfast was delicious, including the vegetarian options. We will definitely be back very soon, we were sad to leave!

Brilliant B&B! Me and my other half stayed here 2nd- 4th of September. Rooms extremely clean. Lovely Breakfast. We weren't sure what attractions and views to visit. Pam gave us leaflets for everything and explained where were the best places to visit and how to get there. Pam and Colin were great hosts.

Excellent B&B in Windermere
We spent 2 very enjoyable nights at the Firgarth in Windermere last weekend. From our arrival Colin was extremely helpful as it was our first trip to the area, he took lots of time to go through Maps with us so that we could plan things to do during our stay. The weather was terrible and we got very wet and they dried our clothes for us overnight. The room we stayed in was exceptionally comfortable with a lovely bathroom. They also had lots of restaurant recommendations in the information folder in the room. The B&B is well located within easy walking distance of Windermere & surrounding areas. Breakfast was great each morning. There was lots of choice and plenty of everything! We were particularly impressed with the interest each staff member took in our trip and how they remembered our plans & asked each morning how the previous day had been. We will definitely stay at the Firgarth again next time we visit the Lake District!

Excellent in all ways, some hotels I have stayed in don't reach the standard of this B&B, super clean, great service and local knowledge. Super breakfast Colin! a lovely couple who gave you the time and nothing was to much trouble for them. Parking is good and just by the side of the B&ab. Lovely walks from here which Pam can advise you on. Well worth a visit. Highly recommended
