Birthday break

The stay was booked as a 40th birthday present. From pre arrival to departure we felt very welcomed. The pre arrival information was vary useful. As this was for a birthday break there is an optional extra to have the room decorated and a cake supplied. A very nice surprise for any unsuspecting guest. The owners and staff are very friendly. I have to mention the decor, it's amazingly quirky and very well done, no matter which room you're in you're eye gets drawn to something interesting. Overall, a very classy place, great atmosphere and worth staying in

Great guest house in Windermere

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The room was large and spotlessly clean, with an incredibly comfortable bed. Breakfast was excellent, very good quality food and served in a friendly manner. It was also great to have the guests lounge which we used several times. We were given all the relevant information for check in and found the staff to be very helpful and friendly. I would have no hesitation in recommending Holly Lodge and would definitely stay again if we are in the area.

Breakfast, muffin with smoked salmon, without bacon. And I like the hot coffee very much.
At the Reception you can find the breakfast menu. There are several choices for you to choose from.

The B&B that just keeps giving 😊

Really lovely B & B just a few minutes walk into the centre which had plenty of independent shops, cafes and restaurants It’s also near the Orrest Head walk with spectacular views. We ate at Tapios one night for delicious tapas and highly recommended them. Our second night we ate at The Pig ( name changed to Tilly’s ) and had their Cajun chicken burger… yummy! We opted for a full English breakfast which was not the biggest one I’ve had but cooked fresh and nicely presented and the option of cereal and toast as well Our room (2) on the first floor at the front had a lovely window seat which was lovely to sit on and read for a bit. It was also very spacious and clean. And lastly the icing on the cake was the use of the pool at the local leisure centre which was literally a 5 minute drive. We spent a couple of hours in there both days and had the place virtually to ourselves !! The jacuzzi, steam room and pool were amazing. Thank you so much for providing a break that was sheer relaxation

Cosy and adorable B&B

Super friendly and welcoming host, we had a wonderful time staying here. The guest house is in a nice location, which just takes 7-8 minutes walk from Windermere station. The room we stayed in was clean and comfortable, and those breakfast options are all great, can’t wait to visit here again.

Pleasant guest house

Pleasant guest house. Good parking. Room and breakfast were fine. Unfortunately we didn’t sleep well due to it being located next to a food delivery company which started loading their vans at 5.30am. Perhaps other rooms would be less noisy (we had room 8).

A second home in the lake district

Great place to stop to see around the lake district. Very warm, welcoming hosts. Room was clean and spacious. Breakfast was nice and a good variety of options. Plenty of onsite parking for guests. Can be a bit tight to park around the back of the building but makes good entertainment for the hosts to watch
