“Lovely :)”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 February 2012

person found this review helpful

We stayed in October 2011 for our one year anniversary and had a wonderful time. We'd never been to Windermere before, and Leigh couldn't help enough to make sure we made the most of our short stay. Our top floor room was spotless and very chic, with everything you could need for a few days away. The breakfast was fantastic, with a choice of as many or as few items as you fancied. Located right in between Windermere and Bowness, it was perfectly situated as only a short walk either way. Very good value for money and we'll definitely return if we find ourselves in the Lake District :)

“Simply the Best”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 October 2011

person found this review helpful

Time and time again this is the best b&b in the Bowness/Windermere area. Yes, we are regulars, and the reasons why, is cause the breakfasts is ace, you can have what you want, and seconds, the owner Leigh is brilliant, she can not do enough for you, even putting some champs in our room, for wedding anniversary, the rooms are clean, and there is ample room for all my luggage! You can not go wrong at Montfort cottage.

Room Tip: We always use Windermere room.

“Wonderful Stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 October 2011

We stayed at Montfort last weekend and really enjoyed our stay. Leigh puts a lot of effort into making your stay excellent, with lovely rooms and an absolutely superb breakfast.
As recommended, we took the taxi from Windermere train station for £3 to the cottage, which is located about midway between Windermere (where the train station is) and bowness (where lake Windermere is located). Both Windermere and Bowness were easy to walk to.
We have the breakfast in our room, called Butterworth I think, it is downstairs near the entrance.
We'd love to come back!
