Wonderful people, genuine hospitality, and the most comfortable big bed. An historic house with lovely furnishings giving it an authentic experience of staying in a special home in this special part of The Lakes. Bev even took us on a walk which started with a boat trip and ended with hot soup and amazing view high up on a clear... More

WOW! How, or where do I start with my review? I've hit a hurdle, and stuck for words. What a fantastic place to stay at. A gorgeous property. On arrival, there were our hosts to greet us, with such warmth, and a lovely welcome. After a long drive, you couldn't have asked for more, as along came a smashing pot... More

Amazing hospitality from Sue and Bev. Great breakfasts and fantastic room (comfy bed!!) in their lovely Cumbrian home. Nothing is too much trouble. Evening meal provided on request - delicious..... The best in Cumbria.

Arrived relatively late at 20:30 to be warmly greeted with the offer of a hot drink. The room was great, nice size with... More

We stayed for one night and had a little boy with us. His lovely little bed made him feel happy and secure. Sue and Bev are lovely hosts, nothing was too much trouble for them. They even got toys out to play with. The award winning breakfast was superb, as was the evening meal. Nice selection of teas,cofee and snacks... More

Sue and Bev wonderful hosts and what a beautiful home you have. Our room was fantastic and the breakfast was to die for. Would recommend you try this lovely bed and breakfast if you are in Cumbria.

Unfortunately we only stayed one night, which is the only down side. All of us were made very welcome, including our 2 doggies! Gorgeous large en-suite room with views over the garden. Ideal location for touring or Coast to Coast, as my husband was doing. You must have your evening meal here too - food to die for! Very comfortable,... More

Sue and Bev make what is a very special house, a perfect place to stay. I have stayed in both rooms and both are beautifully decorated and extremely comfortable. The welcome is first class and the food cannot be beaten! If there is a better place to stay in Cumbria I will be very surprised. Unbeatable value £££ :-)
