Friendly owner with quality breakfast and cozy rooms. I spend 3 nights in Montfort Cottage Guest House in March of 2013. The house is strategically located in between of the train station and the pier, each way takes about 15 minutes of walking. In the house, the owner has a vast collection (a few hundred?) of DVD for lending, which... More

Everything about our stay was outstanding. We stayed for three nights at Montfort this week on our honeymoon, and it was a pleasure. Leigh the owner was a lovely host, friendly but never overbearing, happy to help with anything she could (reserving a restaurant on our first night and getting a premium red rose in the room for my wife),...

The rooms though small are good for a short trip. The bath is a squeeze too. However, neat and clean. The service is good but breakfast timing options are indifferent, as its served in the bedroom itself Overall, a good location with access to town centres, etc.

Tv with DVD player too a welcome addition for chilling out after a long walk, and in room tea & coffee as you'd expect (with real filter coffee a nice... More

We found Montfort Cottage to be well located for our visits to the Lakes and National Trust sites, lying midway between Bowness & Windermere and reasonably priced Parking on the road was not a problem. Breakfast in bed was fine but crumby, so we were excellently served with cooked breakfast the following morning. Our room was well equipped (see Visitors... More
