Storrs Gate House

This is a lovely cottage! The dining room is well decorated and the room is comfy and clean. The host Glen and Susan are very nice and suggested us lots of good spots to go. Highly recommend. :)

Booked our little break at short notice and we were basically overwhelmed by the whole experience. Our room (3) was very tastefully presented with terrific furnishings and a four poster bed which was very comfortable. The hosts Susann and Glenn made us feel very welcome and were able to guide us regarding the local surroundings and what was on such as the Bowness Market and other activities. Our breakfast was cooked to order and was exactly as per our requests and was delicious. The other staff we encountered were again delightful. All in all a wonderful experience and we cannot wait to make a return visit.

We would give Storr’s Gate House 10 out of 10 if we could. With a very warm welcome on arrival, Glenn showed us to our amazing room - total perfection, no detail missed. The whole property is so warm & inviting making you want to stay much longer. Breakfast in the dining room overlooking the beautifully manicured garden was divine. We had the best fresh fruit, yoghurt & granola and perfectly cooked eggs. Other options were also available & nothing is a problem. Glenn & Susann were always on hand with great suggestions on sightseeing & local restaurants. We were so glad we took up Glenn’s suggestion of a visit & how to get to Beatrix Potter’s Hilltop Farm. Our stay couldn’t have been any better. It was total perfection in every way. Thank you Glenn & Sussan from Shelley & Peter

Lovely guest house in a convenient location. Short walk into Bowness. Hosts Glen and Susan are very welcoming and very knowledgeable about the area and places to eat out. Their staff are also very friendly and welcoming. Breakfast is lovely and lots of choice with local produce. We stayed in Jacobean Suite which was nice and spacious with separate lounge area, nice sized en suite shower room with lovely toiletries. The only comments I can make is that it really requires bath sheets rather than standard bath towels as they were just not big enough to wrap round after getting out of the shower. Unable to get hot water in the morning when all other residents are using their showers, luke warm at best. Had to get a shower in the evening when there was plenty of hot water as it wasn’t being used. Bed was comfy and slept well. The fridge in the room was great to have and would have been nice to have small bottles of milk for the tea/coffee each day instead of the tiny cartons . The gardens are lovely and we sat out with a bottle of wine at the end of our days out which was really nice to do. Parking is a bonus too Really enjoyed our 3 nights stay and wish it could have been longer. Until staying here, we have never found anywhere in Bowness that we would return to, but we have now found somewhere lovely that we will definitely return to on our next stay in Bowness..

This is the most beautiful place to stay when visiting the lakes, made to feel so very welcome as soon as you step through the door with an amazing reception from both Susan and glen.Rooms are impeccable with everything and more that you would need for a stay. Breakfast is amazing what a choice! Fruit,fresh yogurt, granola, cooked options and also pastries and muffins all freshly prepared. You will not be disappointed while staying.

First class from arrival to departure. Susan and Glen gave us proper old school hospitality, as did the other members of staff. Room was huge and spotlessly clean. Nothing was too much trouble for them and Glen even showed me his incredible vintage motorcycles. Breakfast was superb with plenty of choice and top quality produce. Couldn't fault it if we tried. Would 100% stay there again. Can't reccomend highly enough.
