Christine welcomes you perfectly in her nice house, only a few hundred meters from Grasmer touristic center. Easy to find on the main road with a convenient small but private car park. Room is large, well equipped, very clean and the beds are comfortable. The bathroom is also with all what we need Christine cooks a full English breafast well... More

West View is one of our favorite places on the C2C - or any time we visit the UK! Christine and Dennis could not be nicer hosts and will provide anything you could possibly need (and over the many years we have stayed there, we have needed MANY things all of which have miraculously appeared!) Wonderful breakfasts, homemade bread, and... More

Stayed here on the C2C I think at the same time as the couple returning from Inverness. We rated this as one of the best places to stay on the C2C. A great welcome,very kind and helpful. Food was great and nice towels. I would stay here again definitely.

We stayed at West View last year when we did the Coast to Coast, and when we were looking for somewhere to break our journey from Inverness this year, it was an obvious choice. We were made to feel so welcome, with tea and cake as soon as we arrived, and home made biscuits and fresh milk in our lovely... More

My Dad and I stayed here while we were walking the Coast to Coast. Grasmere is a lovely village with really pretty shops and great places to eat. The West View B and B is a short walk from the main village centre and is very close to various eating places. When we arrived at West View we were made... More

We'd had a lovely days walk over Helm Crag and could see our B&B nestled in front of Fairfield most of the way down into Grasmere. OK so it's on the edge of town but this is no bad thing. It's just a gentle leg stretch to walk into town for a beer and an evening meal and it does... More

A return visit as I think this b & b is really special . Nothing is too much trouble . The rooms are lovely and the welcome after a days walking just what you would hope for. I love the home made cakes, cookies & jam.

This was no 4 of 17 B&Bs we stayed in on the C2C walk so our score is based on our range of experiences. We had a great welcome from Christine: arriving in a howling gale and pouring rain we were offered somewhere to hang our soggy waterproofs and given tea and homemade cakes in front of the fire.

Walking pal and I had the pleasure of staying here on our recent Coast to Coast adventure. Christine welcomed us with the invitation to drape our wet gear over the clothes horse and promptly served us coffee and home made biscuits in the lounge/dining room. Our twin bedroom was a good size (far better than many we encountered later on... More
