    scenic cruise
    delicious breakfast
    warm welcomes
    slight noise

    Had a fantastic time with friends! We enjoyed a scenic cruise on Windermere Lake and explored the fascinating Windermere Jetty Museum. The hospitality was top-notch with warm welcomes, and the rooms were incredibly clean. Don't forget to try the delicious breakfast. it's a highlight of the stay!

    Only downside was the slight noise from other guests during the night, which disturbed our sleep a bit.

    Perfect getaway in the Lakes!

    Just enjoyed a lovely 3-night stay in the Victorian suite. Glen and Susan were super helpful with local tips, and the breakfast was delish! Only thing is, breakfast times felt a bit rushy, but it’s understandable for a small place. Short walk to Windermere was a plus, and the gardens are gorgeous.

    comfortable chairs
    great breakfast

    I had a great time exploring the area. I was in a room with a four-poster bed and a separate area with comfortable chairs. It was nice to unwind with a film after a long day of exploring. Breakfast had a great variety, and the food was properly prepared. The lake and ferry were a short walk away, along with a nice town with many bars and restaurants. I look forward to going back soon.

    None.

    check-in rush
    breakfast overwhelming

    I had a lovely stay at Storrs Gate House. The room was beautifully decorated and very clean. I loved the quality toiletries provided, and the comfortable bedding made for restful nights. Breakfast here was a highlight, with a generous offering that kept us full throughout the day. The hospitality from Susan and Glenn stood out. they were incredibly welcoming and full of helpful local tips. Only issue was a slight rush during check-in and breakfast arrangements. It felt a bit overwhelming after a long journey. a charming experience where the positives significantly outweighed the negatives.
