Hermiston Guest House

We had an amazing time staying at Hermiston Guest House!!! The hosts were incredibly friendly, warm, welcoming and kind. We will most certainly be back :)

Prompt service at Breakfast. Very clean and comfortable. Quiet area, and good location. Felt welcome, was offered tea and cake after returning from a walk on the first day of our stay.

Phil was lovely and helpful at check in giving us all the information we needed and answering any questions. The ibstructions to the property were helpful and it was easy to find. Breakfast was included and everyday the food was delicious. The room was comfortable and quiet, they restocked the room supplies each day ensuring you always had a good stock of what you needed and enjoyed hearing about your plans for each day and offering suggestions.

It was very good taste and good options

A great location for Keswick and days out cycling and swimming in the lakes. Our room was very comfortable and the breakfast was excellent. A lovely week and well looked after as guests.

The hosts were very welcoming and the B&B was very clean and in a fantastic location.

Phil and Helen were excellent hosts. The breakfasts were amazing and the tea loaf and hot drink on arrival was a lovely extra touch.

A longer stay!

Very comfortable home from home. Fantastic welcoming hosts with a wealth of local knowledge

Phil is a great host, welcoming and hospitable. The house is very comfortable, all amenities provided, even a adapter for the power socket (forgot to bring my own).

Phil's a great host, and the rooms are cosy with a wonderful view. Breakfast's lovely.

I appreciated everything!

Beautiful cooked breakfast Lovely building and balcony

Breakfast felt rushed. Allocated a specific time but a time slot would be better. Couldnt shower after 10 or sit on the balcony after 10 (quietly) a little like being at your parents house not a grown up, in a hotel. No large bath towels one small towel each. Room wasn't cleaned after first night, stated in the booklet that rooms should be vacated by 11 or may not be cleaned, vacated at 10.50 room was not cleaned.

Guest house was a very high standard, Hosts were fantastic, breakfast was amazing, very clean.

The staff were so welcoming and the location ideal for us. It was such a comfortable stay and so easy to navigate as the guidelines for staying (for example door locking etc) were all brilliantly laid out. Highly recommended.

Fantastic room with great view. Great breakfast to set us up for the day and really friendly and knowledgeable hosts as well.

Nothing at all.

Good location, clean, accommodating and knowledge host.

Phil was super friendly and accommodating and Helen makes a wonderful breakfast (great selection to choose from). The rooms are spotless and have all the facilities you could need. Tea and cake on arrival was really appreciated after a soggy day in the hills. Shower was powerful and hot, bed was comfortable (pillows were amazing). Phil went out of his way to help us during our stay. We liked booking a breakfast 'slot' as it felt like we had almost exclusive use of the dining room, and pre-ordering the night before meant everything was ready and served within 10 minutes of sitting down. The location was ideal for our walking plans and was an easy, quick drive into Keswick if needed.

Nothing - we had a great stay and hope to return again soon.

Location

Nothing

Had a lovely two night stay at Hermiston guest house which is situated in a lovely location with stunning views to the front of the property and a short drive to Keswick. Hosts were very friendly and accommodating. Had a lovely breakfast and a good selection of food on the menu which is ordered the night before so there is no waiting when you go down to breakfast the following morning.

Very clean. Good breakfast.

N/A

Had a wonderful stay overall. The host was very thoughtful. The breakfast was delicious.

It was amazing, Phil & Helen made us feel so comfortable the views were great the breakfast was good, the hospitality was great.

It was clean and a lovely terrace you could use, also a welcome pot of tea and piece of cake on arrival.

Proper guesthouse with very friendly and attentive hosts. They get the perfect balance between being helpful and informative while not being intrusive. On top of that, the service is as precise as you'd expect from a good hotel. Our room was spotless and had a great view. The area is beautiful and less touristy than other parts of the Lake District. Even so, there's a good array of nearby options to eat and if that's not enough, you're still very close to Keswick which has everything and all the connections you might need. Very happy to have chosen accommodation close to Buttermere, which is unspoilt and great for hiking. Be aware that the guesthouse is part of a private home. It has been expertly adapted to provide accommodation, still the building is fundamentally not built as a hotel so residents and guests have to be considerate of each other. The accommodation part of the house is well separated from the residential side which works very well and there's also shared space providing amenities for the guests. There's a small terrace to unwind, a reading area, some board games in case you've forgotten to pack yours. All in all it was perfect and allowed us to have a relaxed holiday without resorting to self-catering.

Phil and Helen were so wellcoming. Even offering cake and a cup of tea on our return from walking the lakes. Fantastic breakfast. Lovely room with confortable bed. Wonderfully situated for walks.

The house gives onto a busy main road. Luckily our room gave onto the garden on the other side. Still doesn t really feel like being in the middle of the country side, somehow, and rooms that give onto the road would be noisy if the window is open. Wifi is quite poor.

Really good location, lovely breakfast

The bed was very uncomfortable, not great to be told I couldn’t use the shower for very long and had to have my breakfast at a specific time

The breakfast is fantastic with plenty of choice and always cooked nicely. The hosts are very hospitable and offer tea or coffee with lovely shortbread, which is lovelly. The rooms are all on-suite and comfortable. There is also a guest lounge to relax in.

Nothing, all good.
