My girlfriend and I stayed at Storrs Gate House for two nights last weekend and we both thought it was brilliant. We stayed in room 5 which is on a floor to itself. At first I thought the room looked a bit small but my opinion changed during the stay as we found the room to be easily big enough for two. Both of the owners seemed really nice people, and were only too glad to help out if needed. It's only a 10 minute walk to the town, and there are plenty of places to eat and drink when you get there. I would definately go back.

Storrs Gate House
7 Oct 2007
Well what can we say?....... we stayed in the Queen Ann four poster bed for 2 nights and well the room was more than beautiful.
Vince & Shirley Byrne who are the proprietors of the Storrsgate House keep a very warm, pleasant and welcoming house.
The breakfast was second to none although we were told by our friend to try the warm muffins and croissants we could not give up the full english breakfast for them.
Vince was away the weekend we stayed but Shirley left us in no doubt that Vince was just as warm and welcoming as she had been.
The service at breakfast was lovely and the young lady who served us was very pleasant and friendly.
We will definitely be back and next time we will maybe give the full english breakfast a miss and have the home made muffins!!.
A beautifull place and the powershower was a real god send after a long day sight seeing and taking in all the beautiful and breathtaking scenery.
A really special place to stay!!!!...........we will be back!!

Had a wonderful stay here from 20 Aug 2007 - 27 Aug 2007. Fantastic breakfast, especially the homemade jam! Lovely people that made you feel you were not intruding on their fabulous home! Ideally situated as a base for exploring the Lake District as it was our first visit to the area. Loved the tips that they gave us on best places to visit and best places to eat! Would definately recommend to others and on our list of places to stay again in the future! Maxine & Mick, Worcestershire!

Booked as a result of reading other reviews.They are all right and more!Spacious rooms,exceptionally clean,comfortable beds,quality breakfast and genuine hosts who mix friendliness and local advice with an awareness of your needs for a relaxing break. We had some lovely evening meals as recommended by them(Jacksons in Bowness fantastic!).Great location for The Lakes as a whole-you feel part of the area as well as out of the hustle and bustle of Windermere. Would recommend to anyone.
