Guests say
Granton Lodge receives glowing praise for its immaculate presentation, luxurious comfort, and well-equipped facilities. Guests consistently highlight the beautiful setting, spacious interiors, and convenient access to the Lake District’s attractions. The property is described as a true home from home, with thoughtful touches and friendly, helpful owners. While a car is recommended due to the location on a main road, the peaceful surroundings and secure garden are much appreciated. Overall, guests highly recommend Granton Lodge for a relaxing and memorable stay.
Multiple reviews describe the property as spotlessly clean, immaculate, and exceptionally well maintained, with particular mention of scrupulously clean bathrooms and overall high standards.
The location is praised for its proximity to Windermere, Bowness, and scenic walks, making it an ideal base for exploring the Lakes. Some guests note the need for a car and mention the property is on a main road, but these are minor compared to the overall positive feedback.
Guests consistently mention the cottage’s comfort, including very comfortable beds, spacious lounges with reclining sofas, and a warm, cosy atmosphere. Only a single minor comment was made about the upper floor bedroom being warm in hot weather.
The property is repeatedly described as extremely well-equipped, with everything needed for a stay, including kitchen utensils, secure bike storage, and modern amenities. Maintenance and attention to detail are also highly praised.
Many guests mention thoughtful touches such as fresh flowers, biscuits, chocolates, and even treats for dogs. While these gestures are appreciated, it should be noted that such gifts are not guaranteed for every stay.

Rubbing shoulders with prestigious properties in Storrs Park – a location known locally as ‘millionaires row’, Granton Lodge is a detached former lodge house set back on the edge of the manicured gardens of a substantial lakeside property. This fabulous location allows guests views of Lake Windermere across the neighbouring properties and the beautiful sunsets to be enjoyed this side of the lake. A typical early 20th century Lakeland lodge, the property has been sympathetically extended with the loft offering a spacious master suite enjoying lake views. Granton Lodge has elegant good looks, both inside and out, and careful attention to detail in offering guests well-presented comfortable accommodation.
Just a short drive from the centre of Bowness, Storrs Park is ideally placed to enjoy walks from the door to take advantage of its particularly picturesque location. The nearby Hawkshead ferry crossing offers easy access to the west of the lake and nearby typical Lakeland villages offer pubs with open fires, good beer and menus taking advantage of the excellent locally sourced produce. Head into Bowness, for an eclectic mix of shops, cafes, pubs and restaurants. Set on the edge of Lake Windermere, Bowness has a truly Lakeland feel and stunning views across the lake throughout the year. A wander up the hill from Bowness to Windermere offers guests further shops, many fine independent retailers, and an excellent choice of eateries. Shop 2 miles, pub 1 mile and restaurant 200 yards.

Really beautiful cottage just a 5 min drive to Bowness and Windermere. The cottage has everything you could possibly need including a peak of the lake! Lots of room to park next to the house and the A591 is not to intrusive even on a Bank Holiday Monday! We would recommend Granton Lodge to anybody wanting to take a holiday near to Lake Windermere.
