A great place to stay

A beautiful location, very peaceful and a welcoming host who was very attentive. A lovely spacious bedroom, great bathroom. Breakfast was substantial and I enjoyed the short walk down to the lake, along with the gardens which added to the vibe, along with the hens! Thanks again for a wonderful stay.

Wonderfully charming

Wonderfully charming quaint b&b. Greeted on arrival by the very welcoming host who immediately set the fire away and brought me cake and biscuits, she was very helpful and informative regarding local walks. The property and grounds are superbly maintained and it was so peaceful watching the chickens roaming freely from my bedroom window and listening to the birds.

Outstanding views, warm welcome, well looked after

From the moment I arrived I was made to feel at home. Fresh biscuits and cake greeted me, and the room was made up every day. Breakfast was really tasty, particularly nice sausage - and an abundance of fresh juice and fresh bread. It felt like home from home, and by the end of the third night I felt I'd made a new friend. And the views of Skiddaw are amazing.

It was the most beautiful place to stay. Old worldly charm, delicious cooked breakfast and a little plate with cakes when we got back from a day out. There was a cozy open fire to sit and read by and our hostess was friendly and helpful. Would love to return one day.
