The White House in Bowness-on-Windermere

Restaurant with rooms

Join us at The White House, a superb location in the heart of Bowness-on-Windermere. The perfect base to discover the Lake District.

A visit to The White House provides the opportunity to encounter the Lake District's most popular destination whilst being wined and dined in a tranquil oasis, merely a minute’s walk from Lake Windermere. With cruises by Lake Windermere Cruises and the Beatrix Potter attraction minutes from us!

We are located in “Old Bowness” – a warren of quaint lanes, nooks and crannies dating from the Middle Ages – yet only a few yards from the bustling heart of the town with its huge variety of shops and attractions.  You can watch the world go by with a coffee or meal on our attractive terrace or eat inside in our extensive yet intimate dining room.

In addition, we offer twelve rooms with ensuite facilities at competitive rates – an ideal base from which to sample all the Lake District has to offer.

The White House, now owned by snooker legend Tony Knowles has a new, enthusiastic and ambitious management team eager to provide a memorable and enjoyable experience.

We look forward to welcoming you to the Lake District!
