Suddenly find yourself heading more towards a stay-cation rather then a vacay abroad this year?
Never has the time felt better to champion a few local business that I regularly visit when staying in Windermere.
A hot tub on your rooms balcony, overlooking the beautiful English countryside. Do i need to say much else? We've stayed at The Burnside quite a few times and keep going back. It's always a wonderful experience and they embrace old school qualities like a very helpful (and rather cheeky!) concierge gentleman who dishes out hot cookies upon arrival. Literally brownie points!
They have a huge spa and pool facility on site along with beauty treatments and a cinema room. You can grab a glass of prosecco from the little pool side bar while lounging around the pool and enjoy saunas, steam rooms and a plunge pool that I've never even dipped a toe in . . . too busy drinking prosecco!
The bedrooms are all gorgeous, very grande 'country living' style, many chandeliers knocking about and massive armchairs face the un-spoilt countryside and lake views.

Things to do in Windermere: Go on a boat tour of course!
Where to self-isolate!
The Fizzy Tarte:
A patisserie and a Champagne bar, what a winning combination!
