A modern restaurant with rooms located in one of the most spectacular venues in the country is having a good time with both a 4 yellow star, AA Highly Commended rating and an AA Red Rosette accreditation for culinary distinction, as it firmly places itself on the list of must-stay locations in Britain.

The yellow stars show that the Windermere-based Hideaway's property is in the top 10 per cent of its kind, black stars being the signs of grade given by this highly appreciated inspection system.

The Hideaway, at the heart of the charming Lake District, is not completely stunned by this appreciation from outside for its product's excellence.

The restaurant, with eleven bedrooms, is an ideal choice for those who want to be close enough to the main tourism centres of Windermere and Bowness to benefit from their attractions, but away enough to be untouched by their hustle and bustle.

The Cumbrian location definitely lives up to its name, pushed away in a quiet and green cul-de-sac where tranquility and calmness rule and the noise from the traffic is barely detectable.

A renovation has fitted the Victorian Lakeland home, constructed in the year 1890, with elegantly decorated rooms.

Top quality furnishings, cosy duvets, crisp, white sheets and new electrical appliances put the last touches on the picture, making sure that the renovated rooms adding to the restaurant are really excellent.

Further refurbishment work will be conducted for the next year's season.
