Storrs Gate House

This award-winning family-run B&B is set opposite Lake Windermere in a 19th-century property which was the former gatehouse to Storrs Hall. The restored Storrs Gate House offers sumptuous bedrooms with free Wi-Fi, hearty breakfasts, and free, ample parking. A full English breakfast is served in the morning. Breakfast items include free-range eggs from a local farm, handmade Cumberland sausage, homemade jam, marmalade, yoghurt and muffins. The bedrooms are decorated with rich fabrics and colours. All rooms have a minibar and a hairdryer, and bathrooms feature power showers and The White Company toiletries. Storrs Gate is less than a mile from Bowness-on-Windermere, with a stunning lake close by. There is a lot to do in the Lake District, including fishing, walking and cycling.
