"hotel very handy for shops etc. very good room (3) surprised really. all the usual bed bath shower etc but this room included a lounge area and a bit of a kitchen area. sink fridge and for some reason a dish washer . in the cupboards was one plate . no glasses so we was baffled. the room was a bit warm but wasnt a problem . The bar is ok but could do with more choice of real beers breakfast we had Washington grill which was very tasty. for those visiting Cumbria this hotel is 30 min drive from keswick or you can go via a bus which goes via Cockermouth.Train station is 15 min walk and you can go to Carlisle, 25 mins roughly,or along coast ,repair works permitting, to barrow seeing places like st bees , drigg or grange over sands. overall a good nights stay. a big thankyou to all the staff"

"Fabulous location. A lot of renovation work is being carried out but it didn’t affect any of the comforts of our three night stay. "

" From the moment I arrived, my entire experience at this B&B was exceptional. Every interaction with the team felt warm, genuine, and professional — nothing was ever too much trouble, and I truly felt looked after throughout my stay. My room was spotless, beautifully presented, and incredibly comfortable. The attention to detail was clear from the fresh linens to the thoughtful layout and amenities. It felt like a perfect space to relax and unwind. The B&B itself is in a fantastic location, and everything ran smoothly — check-in was efficient, the facilities were well maintained, and the atmosphere throughout the building was welcoming and calm. What really stood out, though, was the level of customer service. The staff went above and beyond to ensure I had everything I needed, including a lovely pot of tea, offering great recommendations and checking in with me without ever being intrusive. Their professionalism and friendliness genuinely elevated my stay. I left feeling refreshed, valued, and incredibly impressed. I would not hesitate to return — and I will absolutely be recommending this hotel to friends, family, and colleagues. A truly brilliant stay from start to finish. Thanks Peter 🌟"
