Situated within easy walking distance of Lord Street and the town's main attractions, the Bowden Lodge was ideal for my weekend stay. The public rooms - lounge and breakfast room - are spacious and show off the building's character; the single bedroom was modern, very clean and with all the usual facilities. The couple who run the Bowden Lodge were friendly and welcoming. Breakfast was nicely cooked. There is parking at the front and a bus stop right outside. There is a small fridge in the room with fresh milk for tea and coffee making- a nice touch. A minor point is that the shower could perhaps be a little more powerful. Overall a very comfortable and welcoming establishment.

First time stay, over three nights. Not only could we find nothing wrong or anything to make a negative comment about, our experience possibly eclipses anything found anywhere else. The proprietors have thought of everything, from facilities in the room to the layout and offering at breakfast. The bedroom and public areas are decorated and maintained to a very high standard and the cleanliness is excellent. Well done. Will be pleased to go back any time and recommend the Bowden Lodge to anyone.

Just fabulous!!

Had a very pleasant stay, a lovely friendly family run business. The hotel was spotlessly clean and served a very nice choice of breakfast, with the added addition of homemade eccles cakes and flapjacks. Another great addition was a stocked up fridge where you could get wine, beer, water, soft drinks and chocolate, you write down what you have taken and pay when checking out. Fabulous!! A short walk into Southport, a perfect location. I would highly recommend you to book and stay here.

Support local

On arrival we were welcomed by Jane, everything from breakfast, the mini bar, local discounts for guests and parking was clearly explained. The property is beautifully presented, with quality furnishings and many original features. Our room was spotless and spacious for a family of 4, with a kettle, biscuits and a selection of beverages. Breakfast on both mornings was freshly prepared and exactly as ordered. Andy and Jane have restored our faith in using a B&B over a faceless chain of hotels, by giving us a very personal and pleasurable stay. We will certainly be recommending and staying again. Thank you
