Reveal review

Stretching for more than 10 miles between Ambleside and Newby Bridge is Lake Windermere, the largest natural lake in England. As well as being incredibly picturesque, it's also a centre for all forms of water sports, making it the perfect summer destination...

The 4* Beech Hill Hotel and Spa which is set on the eastern bank of Windermere, offers dramatic views across the lake to the Western Fells and is nothing short of breathtaking. If you're looking for a place with old school charm, friendly staff and top notch facilities then this is the place for you. Travel by car though if you can as the nearest town, Bowness, is about 10-15 minutes away by taxi. B&B flexible rates range from £75.90 to £349.80 per room per night. 

The hotel has a newly refurbished Lakeview Spa, which is unique in that whether you're in the indoor pool or the vitality spa pool you have unrivalled views of Windermere and the snow capped ranges beyond. Inside, there are two treatment rooms, a sauna, a steam room, an outside vitality spa and a 40ft indoor pool. Go for a dip in the hot tub and you'll feel like an A-lister!...
