I loved our room with a bath in the room. When we came, it was a very rainy day, so that was a perfect way of relaxing after a long drive to the Lake District. Breakfast was great, fresh and good quality.

Loved our stay here. Bed was very comfortable, lots of space in the room and we appreciated the kettle/tea/coffee/biscuits in the room. Breakfast was delicious and the hosts were lovely. It was really nice to have a home cooked breakfast. Location was great being only a 10min walk from the train station where we could catch buses to the other towns. Couldn't have asked for any better really, and for a good price! Would definitely stay here again.
