Guest Reviews

Andrea (10/5): -
Julia (9/5): Warm, friendly, spotless B&B in a great location - Beautiful house. Lovely decoration and toiletries. Spotlessly clean. Great location. Very friendly hosts. Breakfast on our 2nd day was a little chaotic with mixed up orders. However the food was great, especially the fruit, yogurt and granola. I believe a new member of staff was being trained up.
Duncan (10/5): -
Christopher (9/5): -
Michael Connick (10/5): - Friendly
Daniel (9/5): Great stay - All was really good thank you Nothing
SJ (10/5): Great place to stay! - Very friendly and helpful staff who made us feel relaxed. Breakfasts were excellent and always cooked fresh. Rooms were very clean and bed was very comfortable. Location was perfect. Will definitely stay here again when we visit the Lake District! Everything was excellent!
Butler (10/5): Excellent break away in the Lakes... - Susanne greeted us on arrival She showed us our room which was delightful.. Loved the Juliette balcony that overlooked the garden The breakfast was awesome & cooked to perfection. Racheal was delightful & both herself & Susanne were very attentive all through breakfast.. We didn't like that we only booked one night as it was so peaceful 😄
Sukhjinder (10/5): “Good Stay, But My Taste Buds Missed India 🇮🇳😂” - Excellent hotel with very friendly staff, clean and comfortable rooms, and great service throughout the stay. The atmosphere was welcoming and relaxing. I really enjoyed my experience and would highly recommend this hotel to others. Hotel was nice and breakfast was actually good… but my heart was searching for Indian food the whole time 😂. After two days, I started missing spicy curry more than my family! Please add some Indian dishes next time and I’ll happily give 5 stars.
Linda (10/5): - The decor was lovely, the mattress was super soft and body molding tissues and handcream in bathroom , the gardens were a treasure to sit in .The owners very chatty and knowledgeable, definitely go again Breakfast was waitress served, maybe a few more items, like porridge or pancakes, waffles, but what we had was delicious
Emma (10/5): - Warm friendly welcome. Lovely room. Delicious breakfast. Nothing not to like.
Lee (10/5): Very impressed with all. - “Everything.” From the warm welcome and introduction, to being shown to an immaculate, well-equipped room that truly impressed, every detail stood out. Breakfast was a delight—exceptional quality and variety, made even better by the welcoming atmosphere created by Susann, Glenn, and the team. We left thoroughly impressed by the entire experience. The weather. Everything else concerning Storrs Gate was excellent.
Graeme (10/5): Lovely hotel in a great location. We will visit again! - Great location, lovely breakfast, lovely staff and hosts. Room was big and beautifully decorated too! Bed was a bit creaky!
Steve (10/5): -
Elizabeth (10/5): Fabulous hotel where the staff are so hospitable - Very clean lovely staff delicious breakfast and cosy room
Julie (10/5): -
Nefeli (9/5): Excellent, cosy, clean - The house is in a great location,very close to everything with parking. The house itself is beautiful, so well decorated and so cosy. I absolutely loved that we couldn't wear our shoes around the premises as it made everything super clean and cosy. The room was great with a very comfortable bed and great mattress and pillows. Had a fridge which was great and super useful. The bathroom was also great, big and had everything we needed. The lotion, conditioner and shower gels were great quality as well. The room, bathroom and the whole house was super clean and fresh. The breakfast was also fantastic and the little room you have breakfast in was so beautiful, bright and cosy. Our hosts were very sweet and accommodating! I can't really find any faults! The only thing was that sometimes the traffic could wake you up at night but we like to have the windows open to get fresh air and nothing can be done for it. It is a busy tourist place.
Andrew (8/5): - Good location and excellent breakfast. Nothing
Sam (10/5): It was our first time staying last night and it’s fair to say we will 100% be back! - As soon as you walked in the front door you felt at home. It was so clean and the staff are beautiful people! The breakfast was really nice too. We loved everything about the property
Phillip (10/5): Excellent, would definitely stay again -
Ali (8/5): Attractive, well located and traditional B & B - A warm welcome from our host, very clean room, and comfortable bed. Shower was powerful and there were good quality toiletries available. Delicious yogurt and fruit at breakfast, and my partner enjoyed the porridge, which was made to order.The cooked breakfast looked good, but we didn’t choose to have any. The window for breakfast was quite limited, and personally, I prefer to help myself to the continental elements of breakfast and didn’t find the waited on format relaxing. That’s no reflection on our host, who was very friendly.
Jaime (9/5): - Nice size rooms. Lovely breakfast. Friendly staff
Mark (10/5): - Great little BNB. Lovey location and staff were very attentive. Wonderful breakfast, even homemade yogurt! Nothing
Chris (10/5): - We enjoyed it that much we revisited the following weekend for another 2 nights stay .. I would highly recommend a visit. Best wishes Chris Mills
Mya (10/5): Wonderful - Felt just like being at home! We felt extremely welcomed. Very large clean beautiful rooms and a lovely breakfast. Also in a perfect location right near the marina. Thank you!
Philip (9/5): Host were welcoming and very friendly. Room met our expectations and were clean. - I liked the location, it was far enough away that you didn’t hear any of the hustle and bustle of the nightlife but close enough that you could walk to the lake and not have to worry about parking. Breakfast was nice with a good selection and plenty tea and toast if you wanted more. Room was a good size, very comfortable and tea tray was well stocked with milk in the fridge. Plenty parking available at the property. Only issue was windows single glazed let in noise from the road and a bit of a draft. Small issue would not stop me from going again, Next time I’ll pack my ear plugs.

khalied (10/5): - الموقع جميل والتعامل الممتاز من اصحاب الفندق والنظافة الجيدة الديكور للغرف وسع الغرف الاثاث ممتاز ومأخذ الطراز القديم وجود مواقف للسيارات مجانا لايوجد
Eric (10/5): - Glenn and Susann were lovely hosts who showed us great hospitality. The bed was very comfortable, and breakfast was skillfully cooked to order, full of options and served with great attention. We enjoyed our stay at Storrs Gate House during our time in the Lake District.
david (10/5): - Near the marina
mark (10/5): - What a pleasure to stay at this beautiful property, with fantastic hosts. The quality of the breakfast is top draw and without a doubt the best egg and bacon sandwich I have ever tasted. A short beautiful walk along the lake leads to bars and shops. We will definitely be back.
Ella O (10/5): Amazing stay, great location, definitely recommend. - Me and my partner stayed here in August, and it turned out to be one of our favourite places to stay. The room was in perfect condition and the toileteries that came with it were amazing. Susan and Glen were the loveliest hosts. They provided a delicious breakfast and went above and beyond regarding customer service. I would definitely recommend staying here and would love to visit again.
Helen (10/5): - We had a fabulous stay in the Storrs gate bed and breakfast. Everything was wonderful. Our room was lovely and the breakfast was very nice. It's just a short walk to lake Windermere and all amenities. Really lovely!
Akriti (4/5): - The place and rooms were nice but the experience was overshadowed by the bad behaviour of the hostess. We were 15 minites late in checking out coz i had bumped my head. She never offered to help while my forehead was swelling up, refused to give ice or anything to help and just wanted us out of the room. She closed the door to the living room area when we came down the stairs and made us wait for our taxi out in the cold..
Graham (10/5): - What a little gem of a guest house this is, just yards from the shore of Lake Windermere opposite the marina and just a 20 minute walk from Bowness ( or a couple of minutes max by car ! ) Owners Susanne and Glenn are lovely warm friendly hosts and are very welcoming and more than happy to give you any help needed with info on the local area. The guest house is bright and beautifully clean with a slightly 'chintzy' decor, but at least it has character rather than the sterile corporate identikit look of many hotels. Breakfast choice is excellent, fresh berries, granola, cereals etc etc, all the usual, and the cooked food is delicious and freshly prepared for you when you go down to breakfast. Our bed was on the firm side but nontheless was very comfortable and lovely and warm and the pillows were excellent. All in all with the guest house very good EXCEPT the road noise was awful ! The windows were of the sash design which do not seal well even when closed so we got the roar of every car, bike, van etc that went past in our room, usually falling quiet around 1.00am. For me, this made sleeping difficult and was the only real negative to our stay.
Cortland (10/5): Pretty -
Diann (10/5): Wonderful Storrs - Best stay ever at Storrs Gate House cosy friendly well looked after stay can’t wait to go back! Very central location and Storrs only too pleased to give us the best advice possible where to visit in the area.
