We had a delightful stay at lovely High Wray Farm in the beautiful Lake District. Sheila is a wonderful, warm and welcoming host who really looked after us. She provided a delicious generous breakfast and lovely little extras like tea & cake. We loved staying here.

The property was perfect. There was absolutely no faults. Sheila was an amazing host with a cracking smile and very welcoming. The breakfast was exceptional, the location was great, the views were amazing. If you like walking, then this will be a great location to walk down to the lake and walk up to Wray castle. The pictures below tells you all. A typical English cottage is what’s needed.
Absolutely nothing!

The house which dated back to the 15th century was immaculately kept by Sheila & as well as a room each we had access to a lounge & dinning room where our beautiful breakfast was served each morning.
Nothing at all.

This is a traditional farmhouse, in a quiet area with minimal distractions. The breakfast was fabulous and the staff/owners super friendly.
There did not appear to be much wall thickness between adjoining rooms. I was unlucky on the day and had to listen to a very long…and very intrusive…..telephone call in the neighbouring room just as I was trying to relax. Not sure what the owners can do about this!?

Breakfast was fabulous and service perfect. The old fashioned style of the building and decor was perfection for me. Sheila was a fantastic host, friendly, helpful and communicative. Always available either on site or at the end of the phone. I was very happy that there was no tv in the room, but I point this out. Tv is in the lounge/breakfast room. No food or supplies within easy walking distance but a 15-20 drive to Ambleside or Hawkshead providers all you might need. The location, scenery, comfort and friendliness more than compensates to any of the other facilities you may feel are missing.
Nothing. It was perfect.

Great food. Lot's of choice for breakfast. I had the really excellent full farmhouse breakfast. Very friendly atmosphere. Comfortable accommodation and lots of nice touches, eg the landing fridge with fresh milk and the decanter of sherry 'for tired walkers' on the landing. Lovely sitting room and garden available for guests on this working farm. Couldn't ask for more really and very good value for money.
Nothing comes to mind.

The breakfast was superb. Different “specials” each day or fruit/yogurt / juices OR full English breakfast. The quality of the fresh food and the wonderful attention to detail makes this breakfast so special.
Nothing .We could not be happier!!

I've spent the last five or six years on the road due to my job. I have stayed in high profile hotels and B&Bs. High Wray Farm is the most welcoming and beautifully cared for place that I have had the good fortune to stay at. The host goes above and beyond the call of duty and the attention to detail in every aspect is incredible.
That I didn't find it earlier.

The cooked breakfast was exemplary! The location has excellent views of the mountains and is so quiet. Sheila does an extraordinary job of keeping everyone happy and well catered for.
I can't really think of anything!

scenic, and a place with a very homely feel
door heights, but that’s more of my issue!

Absolutely fabulous breakfast, I haven't had such tasty bacon and sausages in a long time!
Not a big deal but it would have been good to have the option of a half hour earlier breakfast, to get an earlier start on the day

Staying at High Wray farm was like being a guest at a friend's home. Sheila was welcoming and provided many lovely welcoming gestures such as tea and cake in the dining room each afternoon when we returned from our adventures. Breakfast was fantastic, well cooked with daily specials and plenty of choice. A small fridge was available for guest use
Bedrooms are upstairs which did not prove an issue for us but could be problematic for anyone with mobility issues

Loved the 1641 house, decor, shower, cosy living room area, fridge. Bed was very comfortable. Breakfasts were delicious. Sheila, the hostess was kind, helpful and unobtrusive.
Would appreciate conditioner for hair.

Absolutely fantastic staying on a working farm with Chris and Shiela, their working dog Floss and the cat Pippin. A very cosy place, beautiful food, lovely rustic and authentic rooms with modern facilities. Almost like staying with extended family away from the ambleside bustle but only a short boat ride from Wray Castle down the road. Definitely recommended.
Nothing.

The breakfast was fantastic and so was the company of the other holidaymakers as well as the landlady's welcome. We appreciated a glass od Sherry from her decanter. The afernoon lemon cake waiting for us after a walk by the lake was delicious! Very peaceful hamlet, perfect area to look at the night skies and to appreciate the silence of the countryside.

I have not stayed in many Bed&Breakfasts there is no television in your room I would have liked a television in the room I stayed in also if you were watching television downstairs and you wanted a cup of tea you would have to go up to your room and make it there then bring it down to the living room
