Just back from our stay at Mylne Bridge and had the best weekend-even though the weather wasn't great. Jim is the best host and goes out of his way to make you feel welcome and will give you info on the local area and things to do. He advised us on where to eat and even offered to book us a table. The bedrooms are lovely and clean and having a fridge in your room
(with water and chocy biscuits) is a massive plus for us. Although we didn't get to met Jim's wife ,her breakfasts were excellent and Jim's shirts at breakfast are entertainment in themselves. so if your staying in windermere this is the place to stay!!

Six of us travelled in the UK for two weeks in July and stayed with Jim and Lorraine during our 3 nights in Windermere. After the trip we all agreed it was our favorite place that we stayed on the trip. They have put a lot of effort into making the rooms comfortable and clean, and it shows. Every one of our rooms was great. The breakfast was incredible. I've seen several people comment on the porridge, and it deserves mention, but all the food we had was great. The best part about the bridge house was Jim's knowledge of the area and his recommendation of restaurants and trips. Great all around, and a great location in between Bowness and Windermere.

My wife, myself, and our two teenage boys stayed at Mylne Bridge House for a week in August 2007. The full-English breakfasts were terrific. So terrific, in fact, that I had to "bottle out" once or twice and opt for a fresh fruit alternative in order to ensure that I could still get my trousers on by the end of the week!

Our fifteen year old, Stephen, smashed the previous 19 pancake record and raised the ante to 24 pancakes. The accommodation was excellent, and the daily-replenished goodies in the silent fridge in the bedroom were also much appreciated.

All in all, a very enjoyable stay, and if we're in Windermere again, we will certainly look up Jim and Lorraine. One word of warning: watch out for Jim's shirts at breakfast time. Complimentary sunglasses are not included.... <grin>

We registered with Trip Advisor for the sole purpose of sharing our story of Mylne Bridge House with fellow travelers. It was the highlight of our England trip and ranks at the top of our month-long vacation in Europe. Our hosts were incredibly friendly and helpful, the food was great, and the room was spotless. For us, it was the perfect way to experience the scenery of the Lake District. Not all B&B's have been a positive experience for us, but this place was just about perfect.
