“Windermere wonder!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 February 2012

people found this review helpful

This lodge is smack bang between Windermere and Bowness, 10 mins walk to either, we stayed here for 2 nights, we were made to feel very welcome from the word go, the room was spacious, spotless, and had everything we needed, it was modern and airy!
The en-suite was very bright and the shower was huge!
Breakfast was just divine, choices beyond choices....from simple cereal, fresh fruit salad, to full cooked English or the beautiful "gypsy toast"!!!
This was our first visit to the lakes and we will definItely be visiting again.....and the st johns lodge!....Many Many thanks for a wonderful stay!.....Lisa and Lou x

Highly recomend this well maintained establishment, very rare you find guest houses that are as clean as this. Bedrooms beautifully set out, well positioned foe both Bowness & Windermere. Food is excellent.

“Lovely Place to Stay Great for Veggies!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 October 2011

We stayed here New Year's Eve 08 and loved it. The owners were very friendly and down to earth. Our room was one of the budget/standard rooms - Lower Ground, although I was worried about it being on the lower ground before arriving I really don't know what I was worrying about it because it was comfortable and warm.... just what we needed after a long day of walking. I would recommend anyone to stay here. We are thinking of heading back up for our hunnymoon next year too! Great veggie breakfast..... I must say the best in the Lakes thus far!

Room Tip: Their website is pretty good showing the images of each room. Whether you go budget or luxury your s...

“A stay we will never forget!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 October 2011

Lovely b&b, perfect location and friendly staff! Rooms were cosy and comfortable, power shower was lovely. Breakfast menu was excellent, so much choice! We notified owners we would be arriving early, and our room was ready for us. I even had a candle in my breakfast in my birthday, nice touch! Great place to visit, my boyfriend proposed on my birthday so this is a special place we won't forget and we will definitely visit again!

“So glad we stayed here!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 September 2011 via mobile

person found this review helpful

Me and my boyfriend stayed here for my birthday in march and I am so glad we did! The room was large with a big tv and a ridiculously comfy bed. The service was great and the staff were friendly. It's close to the centre of Windermere (5 mins walk) and only a little further to the lake.

The best bit about this hotel, however, is the breakfast. We were there for only 2 days but I wish we could've stayed for 2 weeks just to sample everything on the breakfast menu!
