The Bowden Lodge

I visited Bowden Lodge with my son and we had a lovely warm welcome from Jane the host. We were over visiting family and my sister came with us to check in and drop off our bags. Jane very kindly allowed my sister up to our room to drop the bags off as we were going straight out again. Our room was a twin. Quite compact but lovely and cosy and very clean. We were in room 7 on the top floor and we had no rooms near us so very peaceful. The rooms are serviced daily and they do have a sign about towels being changed. If you want them changed then leave in shower but they also ask that if you are happy to re use them to keep them hung up. Great idea as it's better for the environment. We were there 3 nights and were happy to re use. There is a mini bar down on the first floor and very reasonably priced and I would have been happy to use it but we were out most nights till late. It does beer,gin,chocolate bars and wine . Really peaceful nights sleep and down for a delicious breakfast, Breakfast was served between 8 and 9. You have a choice from fresh fruit and yogurt,cereal,pan au chocolate and can also have a cooked breakfast. Cooked breakfast was gorgeous. You can also try a Chorley Cookie freshly made by Jane. OUT OF THIS WORLD! There is a carpark on the property too but we did not use this facility. We actually stayed at Bowden Lodge a couple off weeks after the terrible tragedy in Southport. This did not put us off going and we felt very safe. Lovely people in Southport and well worth a visit. Thank you once again Jane and Andy for your hospitality and hope to see you again soon.

Have just returned from a 2 night stay at Bowden Lodge. I am so pleased I found this gem of a B & B. My friend and I couldn’t fault anything. The room was very quiet, spotless and had everything we needed. Fresh milk was provided instead of the dreaded UHT you normally get. There were lovely touches as in chocolates and a little box containing things you may have forgotten. It was in a great location to access Southports attractions. Jane and Andy couldn’t have been more friendly and helpful. Thank you. We would love to stay again. Oh and I forgot the great breakfast!!
