I stayed at The Gateway for one night last week & was absolutely delighted with the whole experience. When I arrived I was warmly met by the owner Angela. She showed me to my room, with my mum who I was visiting in the area, but wanted to know where I was staying, & was delighted with my room. It... More

My partner and I went for a day out on our motorbikes, we hadn't planned it just your usual spontaneous adventure. We road from St Helens, up to rivington, on to devils bridge, over to Kendal then on to lake Windermere, we stopped at each location and had us some decent weather (not the greatest, but decent all the same)....

My partner and I stayed at The Gateway for one weekend night during a scuba diving weekend. We arrived later than planned but were still greeted by Angela (and her cheeky little dog Bubbles) and had a nice little chat about the place and what we had been up to. The place was very homely and warm and the rooms... More

Found this place after ringing round and being told about it being dog friendly by another B & B and Angela was very helpful in sorting out what we needed.

My husband and I recently stayed 6 nights at the Gateway; and could not recommend it more. The location is convenient to the Lakes District. Our room was spacious, clean and lovely, with tea facilities we never used, but sweet treats we did (unfortunately!) Angela is a lovely, gracious hostess. Her breakfasts are huge & delicious; and she is more... More

The Gateway at Hest Bank is an outstanding B&B with good rooms, nice patio, serving a fine breakfast. The location is excellent for exploring Morecombe, Heysham, and Lancaster. Angela Wain is good host and her able assistant, Bubbles the Springer Spaniel, is quite a greeter.

Stayed over with my wife, my son and his partner and three grandchildren. We had adjoining rooms which was great. The rooms are of a very high standard and the proprietor could not do enough for us! Lovely breakfast and cannot wait to go back! Highly recommended.

Angela was a welcoming and attentive hostess, rooms were spacious, contemporary decorated and well appointed. Good hearty breakfast sets you up for the day (maybe black pudding?) Excellent value. Recommended
