Outstanding views, warm welcome, well looked after
From the moment I arrived I was made to feel at home. Fresh biscuits and cake greeted me, and the room was made up every day. Breakfast was really tasty, particularly nice sausage - and an abundance of fresh juice and fresh bread. It felt like home from home, and by the end of the third night I felt I'd made a new friend. And the views of Skiddaw are amazing.

It was the most beautiful place to stay. Old worldly charm, delicious cooked breakfast and a little plate with cakes when we got back from a day out. There was a cozy open fire to sit and read by and our hostess was friendly and helpful. Would love to return one day.

Best BnB ever
It was one of the most comfortable stays I’ve ever had. From the cozy cottage to the home cooked breakfast with the stunning views of the Lake District from the garden. There were baby chickens running around and cows just over the fence. The room was comfortable and the house was very nice and warm. I could not recommend enough.

The host was very welcoming. The house and gardens were stunning and steeped in history. The breakfast was plentiful and home-cooked. We look forward to returning in the near future.

Thoroughly recommended
Stayed for a week, wish it could have been longer! Host was faultlessly polite and helpful. Wonderful accommodation, fantastic location and stunning scenery. Breakfast was so tasty, I bought some eggs to take him with me. On site dogs were well behaved and friendly. Great base for exploring the Lake District, with quick access to Keswick and surrounding area. Room was comfy, en suite was clean, and the gardens were beautiful. Will come back.

10/10 Exceptional

I wanted somewhere peaceful away from tourists and crowds and I got it. I also wanted a place that wasn't as commercialized as most other places in The Lakes, and I got it. I found, to my great delight, something largely unchanged by commercial pressure and time. Sunlit oak floors and furniture and deep plush furnishings that echoed the sounds of birds and hens running free in the sumptuous gardens that tumbled down to the view of the lake. Two old rescue dogs that minded their own business unless engaged, each seemingly unconscious of their great fortune in having been rescued by the owner, Mrs. Lockwood, who is as diligent with her visitors as she is with her beloved canines. A breakfast room that wouldn't look out of place in a period English drama, to complement the rest of the immaculately-maintained ramshackle long house that weaves and curves around entwining stairs, whose delicate scents preserve in some places the woodsmoke tang of generations of family winters around elegant fire grates. The house is unblemished and unencumbered by tasteless tat and modernity; no TV's to annoy other guests, but with quality Wi-Fi that keeps visitors connected, if they must be, in such a space of peace and quiet. It's perfect for combing quiet relaxation with the frenetic pace of Lakeside tourism.

The host was lovely and welcoming. The area was super quiet. And the private drive was available for parking car, keeping car safe. The room was clean, spacious. Walk to nearby lake in less than 10 min. Close to Keswick area. The bed was comfortable (I stayed in twin room).

Wonderful, traditional B&B in a rambling, Tudor-era house; really easy to get to from the main A66. The fire was lit and Karen was feeding the chickens when I arrived. It's that kind of a place, and feels like a family home: come if you hate corporate, soulless uniformity. Beautifully maintained, extensive gardens, including a former tennis lawn. There's a footpath that leads to Bassenthwaite Lake in 10 mins, views of the surrounding hills from the house and garden, and the wonderful Karen who couldn't be kinder or more welcoming. Feeds the soul!
