Beautiful place to relax

Pros: Everything, it’s our favourite place to stay in the Lake District!

Cons: Pillows were too big for me but that’s preference.

Salma 10/10

United Kingdom 🇬🇧

Pros: The location is amazing! The hotel is immaculate, the staff are friendly and welcoming. The breakfast is cooked to order and is superb. I would 100% recommend it to anyone who would like to visit this property. The beds are very comfortable and after a long day of hiking, it is much appreciated.

Cons: I do not have anything negative to say. It's a 10/10.

Bronne 10/10

Netherlands 🇳🇱

Pros: A great room plus luxurious bathroom including a huge walk-in shower plus separate bath, the layout of this converted barn was well thought out, and the facilities were top-notch. Very friendly staff and owners. The car battery failed, and the owners kindly came to pick us up from where we were stranded. Just around the corner of Wasdale, with one of the best hiking options and dramatic scenery to be found in Lake District/England. Would recommend.

Cons: Nothing.

Lovely perfect place

Pros: Love, thought and care have gone into everything here. Faith and her team were exceptional - combining diligence with genuine friendliness. Very comfortable and peaceful room (great shower too!). Nice to sit in private outside area listening to just housematins and distant sheep. All the breakfast options I tried were delicious. The immediate area is quiet rolling farmland with some lovely walks, and upper Wasdale, just along the road, has the most dramatic scenery in England. This stay was to be a one-off treat for me but I'm now planning a return visit!

Cons: n/a

Relaxing, luxurious, tasteful, quiet gem of a place, with the best breakfast and helpful staff.

Pros: Everything was wonderful; location, clean and comfortable room, hot tub, professional and friendly staff, delicious breakfast and welcome cake.

Cons: The only thing I can mention here is the fact that the boiler had broken so there was no hot water for showers but Faith gave options to reschedule/discount/give kettles of hot water etc and we recognised this was a one-off and unpredictable event.
