Storrs Guest House

Storrs Guest house was clean & comfortable. The owners were very friendly & helpful, nothing was too much for them. They were knowledgeable on places to see. The breakfast was excellent - sets you up for the day. I would recommend Storrs Guest house & it was only a 10 minute walk into Bowness which offered some amazing friendly pubs & the food was good, enjoyed the Sunday roast in the Flying Pig very good food.

Fabulous stay from start to finish

Absolutely fabulous stay from start to finish. Room and whole ambience were great. The owners both so hospitable and lovely. Met on arrival with a glass of port and a mince pie which was a lovely touch. The rooms were also lovely with extra touches which went above and beyond the usual. Lovely toiletries in the bathroom. And what can I say about the breakfast. Probably the best one we have ever had in a hotel before. Location is handy too, being perhaps a 10 to 15 minute walk from the centre of Bowness, the only thing to bear in mind was the last few hundred yards to the hotel there was no street lights and so was incredibly dark. But with a torch is no problem and shouldn't put you off booking this stunning little hotel. We would not hesitate to rebook if we were in the area in the future .

Beautiful property amazing hosts who cant do enough for you. Suzanne greeted us at the property and made sure to recommend local restaurants for our evening meals. The breakfast fruit starter is amazing and Glen cooks a mean breakfast with high quality produce. Rooms are spacious clean and individual. Highly recommended would definately stay again.

what an outstanding property! This was certainly in the highest class of a B&B, more like a luxury hotel. The ambience was excellent, the rooms and living areas so tastefully decorated. The owners are a lovely middle aged couple, friendly and always happy to advise on things to see and do. It was a pleasure staying here
