    The best B&B we have ever stayed in! Idyllic setting. Amazing view of the lake and mountains. So peaceful and relaxing. Room great. Bed and bedding very comfortable. Decor first class. Such attention to detail. Karen and Tim, fabulous hosts. Very helpful and knowledgeable. A lovely, approachable couple. Got to say, the best breakfast ever! Especially the porridge 😁 You definitely will not be disappointed if you choose this Guest House.

    Comfortable place to come back to after a long day out, the cottage was clean and warm and very pretty too. Right on Bassenthwaite lake it is just off the main road so a convenient place to get around the lake District from. Hosts were very accommodating and make a lovely breakfast

    The cottage was perfect. Very well equipped, nice decoration, comfy sofas and bed. In general it felt cozy, homey and beautiful. We loved it. Tim and Karen, the hosts, went the extra mile for everything and we felt more guests than clients. They really are the best hosts ever.
