I did not realise how close they were to Bassenthwaite Lake, which is a bonus. The view from my window was amazing!

Lovely location, beautiful house, great views.

Owners very welcoming and friendly. Breakfast was very good and arrived on time. Parking on the accommodation private driveway was a real bonus. Location was good for walking and around 7 miles from keswick.

Unfortunately, the room we had (6) was very tired and dated. I completely get that it's an old house and take that into consideration, but I would not stay here again. The bathroom is in dire need of refurbishment. It's old, dark, rusty radiator and wall hangers. The shower gives little more than a trickle, leaks onto the floor and the whole bath / shower looks grubby with old lose trims. A real disappointment. The bedroom was better but the bed was so hard, both my wife and I struggled to sleep. The view from our window was lovely but the actual windows were drenched in condensation to the point of pouring water down onto the sills and carpet. This appears to be an ongoing problem as there was quite a bit of black mildew all around the frames. I'm not sure what time the heating is turned off during the evening but it was really cold during the night. Again, I completely understand this is an old house, but it wasn't a cheap weekend away. We paid a fair price for the accommodation and expected a lot better. When you book a hotel / guest house, there's a few things you expect to be right. A comfortable bed, warm room, good shower and a nice environment. Unfortunately this was not our experience. Sorry for the negative review but I hope this feedback assists you in the future. Best wishes.
