Sleeps

Pet Friendly

11 Marina View is a stylish first floor apartment set on the shores of Lake Windermere. Designer fabrics, modern marble and gorgeous furnishings combine to create a luxurious bolthole with stunning views across the marina to the Lakeland fells beyond.

Park up directly outside the brand-new Bowness Apartments and take the lift to the first floor where you will discover 11 Marina View.

Turn the key to your blissful retreat where a spacious entrance hall welcomes you, serenely decorated in sage grey, the perfect background for the Cumbrian artwork that adorns the walls. To your left you will find a handy utility room with a washing machine for those longer breaks.

Continue straight ahead to the heart of the home – the bright, light open-plan living space. The beautifully appointed kitchen is styled with herringbone flooring, sleek cabinets, teal subway tiles and chic marble worktops. With all the equipment you’ll need to whip up delicious dishes including an electric hob and oven, fridge, freezer, dishwasher, microwave and Nespresso coffee machine. A black marble dining table, comfortably seating 4, welcomes you for an evening of dining, conversation and laughter.

Flowing through to the lounge area, floor to ceiling bi-folding glass doors open to the private balcony, allowing the outside in on warmer days, whilst the 65” SMART television and sound bar provides the entertainment in the winter months. The stunning patterned curtains adds a sense of country luxe so you can relax in style.

Outside, on the glass fronted balcony you will discover two recliner chairs, a dining table and best of all, a yellow hanging egg chair – the ultimate place to relax with a good book (and take a staycation selfie)!

Retrace your footsteps and continue down the hallway to the two bedrooms. A sumptuous King size bed, dressed in soft linens and colour pop cushions awaits you in the Master bedroom. Soothing interiors promise the perfect nights’ sleep, with the addition of a dressing table, floor to ceiling window with serene marina views and 43” SMART television. Step through to the modern marble en-suite shower room, complete with a rainfall shower for wake-me-up moments, toilet, basin and large mirror.

Across the hall, Bedroom 2 offers flexible sleeping arrangements to suit your party – usually made up as a twin with two single beds but a super King can be requested prior to arrival. Dressed in soft shades of green and orange, enjoy morning lie-ins with a 43” SMART television.

Next door, discover the family bathroom containing a waterfall shower over bathtub, toilet, wash basin, large mirror and heated towel rail.

Nestled in the Lake District countryside, you’re wonderfully positioned to explore some of the most beautiful areas in this UNESCO World Heritage Site, just a stone’s throw from Lake Windermere and within walking distance of Bowness on Windermere. You’re just a short drive from Windermere, Ambleside, Coniston and Keswick. With endless options for relaxation or exploration, book your luxury Windermere Marina Village staycation.

Mid Week Stay

4.7 stars

We stayed at the Windermere Marina in a lovely 2 bedroom apartment. It was quite luxurious compared to most accommodation in The Lakes. And yet its still dog friendly so our 2 year Lab had a great time too! The staff on site were very professional and super helpful. The location is great as its just far enough away from the hustle and bustle of Bowness but still within easy walking distance. We had a great time and will definitely go back again in future.

Excellent throughout

Fabulous place with everything you would ask for. When you have more than 2 kids space, cleanliness, convenience and security become very important and this place provided everything.

Fabulous stay

5 stars

Lovely modern apartment in the Marina village. The apartment was clean, modern and had everything we needed for a relaxing break. Unfortunately the weather was really poor so we couldnt take advantage of the balcony but the place felt cosy and extremely comfortable. We would definitely stay again.

We had a very comfortable stay. The apartment was clean, well furnished and light. We would recommend it for a stay in the southern part of the lake district.

Lovely apartment

4.2 stars

This is a lovely apartment and we definitely could have stayed longer, although there were only two of us and I think the living area would be tight with four people. It has everything you need. There is more room for sitting on the balcony so maybe its more suited to summer! We did deliberately book an apartment with a covered balcony but it still got soaked in the rain. The beds are super comfy but the sofas not so much. Things that would make this place even better:- a shelf in the en suite shower to put toiletries on- a doormat or hard floors instead of carpet - more pillow options- this sounds odd but there is a really annoying humming noise coming from the sockets next to the beds!Overall would recommend - great location, customer service and onsite restaurant too!

Marina view 11 was exactly as described. The four members really enjoyed our stay and would stay again in the future.The Staff at the boathouse restaurant were very helpful and the food was of a high standard and well worth the many meals we had.One small criticism was the shower & bath need a soap/shampoo rack as my wife could not bend down and needed my help,this did not spoil our stay but could help other elderly people.Once again thank you to all the staffer a wonderful stay.

Lovely Apartment in the Lakes

3.8 stars

Stayed for 4 nights with our dog, family of 4 adults, lovely apartment, modern, very well-equipped and peaceful. Only negative being a dog friendly place is there is nowhere to allow dogs to go outside to the loo without a fair walk away from the marina, not great at midnight - plus would consider not having fully carpeted main areas in apartments for dog owners. Even a small grassy area on site would be helpful.

Relaxing break

4.8 stars

Very easy check in &friendly helpful staff. This is our 3rd visit to WMV each time in different accommodation. Apartment has everything you could need to enjoy your stay. Large covered balcony overlooking the marina with patio furniture allowing you to sit out even if the sun is not shinning . Its about a 10 or 15 walk into town.
