    comfy bed
    spacious bathroom
    enchanting views
    hard to locate
    dark paths at night

    We had a lovely stay in the Superior King Room with Shower. The bed was super comfy and massive, felt like sleeping on a cloud! The bathroom was spacious too, with a nice walk-in shower. The room was clean, warm, and had a great vibe. Honestly, the views from the window were enchanting. There was a cute window seat to soak it all in. Really enjoyed chilling in there after a long day out.

    yummy pork belly
    delicious breakfast
    serene garden
    late breakfast
    dimly lit paths

    Oh, the Pork Belly was simply divine—succulent and bursting with flavor! Coupled with the fab breakfast spread, we couldn't complain! Plus, the gardens were a hidden gem—seriously, why weren’t more folks taking advantage of those lush vibes?

    Alright, so we skipped brekkie for an early hike, but 8.30 felt a tad late for us. heading back from town at night needed a bit of caution due to the darkness, we ended up grabbing a taxi instead.

    spacious rooms
    tranquil gardens
    comfortable seating
    navigation aids
    signage

    I was enchanted by the spacious and beautifully decorated rooms, complete with comfortable seating areas. The tranquil gardens provided a perfect backdrop for relaxing strolls, and I appreciated the easy accessibility for seniors throughout the guest house.

    A few more signs for navigation would help.

    serene garden

    The location, quiet and secluded, was ideal. I mean, the gardens, they were lovely. And let’s not forget about that breakfast! A full Cumbrian cooked breakfast, to die for. You could say it was breakfast perfection.

    Sure, it wasn’t inexpensive, but we were okay with that.

    clean room
    friendly staff
    lovely breakfast
    limited parking

    Great stay for our wedding

    We had the best time during our wedding weekend! The rooms were super nice, clean, and really pretty. The breakfast was yum, and the staff were just so friendly and welcoming. We loved the picnic area outside, it was a nice touch. Just wish there were more parking spots, but it wasn't a big deal. Would totally come back!

    spacious room
    beautiful gardens

    great gardens and easy access to charming local attractions

    We had a wonderful overnight stay where our spacious room and superbly done bathroom made us feel right at home. Enjoying the beautiful gardens was a perfect way to unwind after a day of exploring. it's also great that it's just over a kilometer from St Mary's Church and Copt Howe, allowing for leisurely strolls to admire the scenery.
