5 star housekeeper 5 star food 5 star location 5 star rooms Robert is very kind-hearted and is ready to help you out. The house is just in town centre and is about 10 mins walk from rail station. The breakfast is very tasty. I'll definitely recommend any travellers to Ulverston to book Sefton House.

I stopped at Sefton House before starting the Cumbria Way. The staff were friendly and helpful. The room fit exactly what I needed - a nice soft bed before a very long walk! I am planning on stopping again some time this summer - and I am genuinely looking forward to it.

We stayed for a week while attending the Buddhist festival at Manjushri (a very pleasant walk down the road). Heaving my overpacked suitcase up the steep and narrow stairs was quite the workout, and the room seemed very small to this American, but turned out to be very comfortable. Sefton House is a delightful place, with delicious breakfast, and will... More

The house is comfortable and welcoming, as are the hosts. The location is excellent for access to Ulverston and out to the lakes and peninsulas. The breakfast was excellent with a good choice. My husband is allergic to wheat and so we brought our own supermarket loaf. The next morning, Rob the chef and proprietor had made a gluten-free loaf... More

Interesting place, very bohemian and in terms of decor and furnishings a throwback to times past probably around the late 60s Woodstock and all that. The cafe concept is unique and the Sefton is ideally located in the centre of Ulverston which is a nice town, like the Sefton though it seems stuck in a time warp, which isn't necessarily... More

We travelled to Ulverston to play golf.We spent two nights at Sefton House right in the middle of the town convenient for everywhere.The room was a throw back to the seventies (furniture wise) with nothing matching.The whole house was a bit like this but had plenty of character. The food was vegetarian which we didn'nt know before we booked.We were... More

This interesting b and b is in the centre of town but Robert, the welcoming owner can guide you to excellent nearby parking. The b and b's breakfast room also houses a coffee bar which is open during some evenings and if you're musical, then they have open mike nights which look fun. Our room was clean and quite comfortable.... More

We were impressed with this place at first, whilst we thought £70 for a twin in February was quite a lot we were generally impressed with the place and thought the townstairs cafe was well set out. Whilst it wasn't warm outside we didn't have an issue with bedding as the post in 2009 had reported. However the breakfast was... More

The downstairs room has clearly had lots of love. It is tastefully decorated with mismatched furniture. The downstairs is an art gallery/cafe, so plenty of great pictures to look at while having your breakfast. Couldn't fault the food, plenty on offer and all really fresh. We stayed in room 7 which from prior reviews looks a popular choice. The decor... More
