Just stayed at this B and B for one night, rooms were lovely, yummy breakfast and also the location was ideal. Owners were also brilliant, my partner left his Tag watch in one of the rooms and they brought it 10mins away from the hotel to where we were so that we got it back, lovely people. Highly recommended.

Just returned from our first trip to the Lake District and Orrest Cottage made the trip even more perfect! I knew I had discovered a lucky find even before we arrived as David was so helpful with advice of the area and making sure we arrived okay. The amazing flapjacks on arrival in the room made the long journey from... More

We stayed at the Orrest for two nights and the level of service and attention to detail were brilliant. The Penthouse was perfect with the lounge being a great place to relax.
