We arrived at Boston House tired after a long drive from Inverness on the return leg of our holiday but John 's welcome was genuine and we immediately felt at home. Our room was spotless (and stayed that way throughout our stay) and the bed extremely comfortable. The shower was excellent and solidly installed - unlike many we've encountered on... more

We booked Boston House for a long weekend break to celebrate our anniversary. As this was a special occassion I was hoping for something a bit special and while Boston house is lovely it did not quite meet my expectations. Our room was tastefully furnished and cleaned everyday and the breakfast which was served was delicious. However, while some reviewers... more

Our first visit to the area, and one to remember. Boston House shows all the signs of a keen eye on detail. This may come from John's considerable skill as an artist. When talking to our host he is more than happy to give you some ideas on where to visit, and we werent disappointed with any of them.One word... more

We stayed at the Boston House over a Bank Holiday weekend when there were not many rooms even available in the Lake District. The B&B was clean, quaint, and the owners were helpful and nice. The breakfast each morning was hearty and good. The Boston House is conveniently located next to a grocery store and the train/bus station, as well... more

We have just come back from a wonderful and friendly stay at Boston House. The hosts Pauline and John were so helpful from the moment we walked in the door. We could not believe the quality of our room. We had a lovely 4 poster bed. Everywhere was spotless and so nicely done. The breakfasts were so well presentated and... more

We will never forget our Easter break at Boston House. The Guest House is ideally situated minutes from Windermere and the Lake at Bowness. John and Pauline are the perfect hosts; friendly yet unobtrusive. The bedroom was immaculate and the bed wonderfully comfortable. John in particular was always forthcoming with a recommended walk or restaurant - all of which were... more

We have just arrived back home after our first trip to the Lake District, and we have had a lovely relaxing time, made all the better by the high standard of accomodation at Boston House. From the lovely breakfasts to the little touches such as fresh flowers in our room, nothing seemed to much trouble, and the hosts were perfect,... more

Boston House was lovely. We took advantage of a mid week break offer and stayed Wednesday-Saturday in room 3, a 4-poster room on the first floor. The room was average sized, not particularly big but not small and very clean and cosy. The en suite was GORGEOUS!!! Fully tiled and very pretty, comprising a shower W.C and sink. The key... more

We have now stayed with John and Pauline at Boston House once or twice a year for the past 8 years since we rediscovered the Lake District when our daughter went to College in Ambleside. We were bowled over by the quality of the accomodation and the friendly reception we received. The rooms are pristine and the attention to detail... more
