    Having to go home.

    This is a spectacular b&b in many respects. Set in a period house one should not be put off by it not being so called modern, it is in a beautiful setting, very comfortable, extremely well appointed and the staff/owner are lovely. It's a great place to stay.

    Would have like the baths in the room to have a shower attachments on the taps so that we could wash our hair.

    Very good breakfast and friendly staff. Location if you are able to walk a short distance to Pooley Bridge. Charm of the property.

    No locks on the doors, so didn’t feel possessions were that safe when out for the day.

    It’s a very grand house, with the comfiest beds I have ever slept in. The property is very clean and has a lot of charm and character. Would definitely look at staying here again. The rooms are amazing! And so is the service.

    Beautiful house, vary large comfortable rooms, super comfortable bed. The en-suite bathroom was as large as some hotel bedrooms. It had a cast iron bath which you can stretch out in. The breakfast was excellent with a Huge selection of cereal’s and fresh fruit. The owner was lovely and couldn’t have been more helpful and the staff were lovely. They took us a tour of the house which was very interesting. We will definitely return probably in the autumn.p

    The only real thing missing in the bathroom was a shower attachment on the bath to rinse my hair but I managed with the jug!

    We loved the spacious room and comfy beds. The welcome was wonderful and the breakfast a great start to the day. We were all well looked after, including our dog. The personal touch was really appreciated and it was a pleasure to meet Ailsa & Jackie!

    Nothing. Just the way things should

    Absolutely fantastic, just the way hotels should be run, everything was top notch, the staff were amazing and very attentive, the owner was out of this world, really about a character she is wonderful, real old school and absolutely spot on, I'm 6'4 and 19 stones and she scared the living daylights out of me. Such a lady, and completely in command of everything, the staff were also amazing, very attentive and very professional, can't praise the place high enough!! GREAT.

    The short walk To Pooley Bridge at night was scary as the road has no street lights or path to walk on. In winter take a torch.

    The house was lovely, and the breakfast was good. Our room was fabulous and had everything that we needed. Also the staff were very welcoming and made us feel at home.
