The Terrace

Dining area outside with a view of the lake

Outdoor dining Windermere

The finest terrace in the Lakes, we think so…

Created by renowned garden designer Thomas Mawson, our terrace offers unspoiled views over his famed garden and towards the Langdale fells.

Take a moment to witness our gardens returning to their former glory and gaze across Windermere to see yachts gliding on the glistening waters, and wave at lake cruises ferrying passengers from Bowness to Ambleside and back.

Eventually, your eyes will be drawn to the majestic Lakeland fells on the horizon. From the left, the Coniston fells act as a barrier, protecting the Southern Lake District from the Irish Sea’s worst. Follow the ridgeline to the right to discover the Langdale Pikes, one of the most iconic mountainscapes in the UK.

Time it right to watch the sun set behind the rocky crags while enjoying a glass of something special.
