"If I could give more than ten points, I would!"

10.0

I can wholeheartedly recommend Lorraine and Simon’s accommodation. The B&B has a wonderfully warm and homely atmosphere. Everything is very clean, cosy and tastefully decorated. My bed was incredibly comfortable and I was pleasantly surprised to find a sink in my room, even though I had a (wonderful) private external bathroom. The breakfast was one of the very best I’ve ever had in a B&B as a gluten-free vegetarian. Unfortunately, I spent most of my stay in bed with a fever, but Lorraine and Simon were extremely kind and caring — they even left a small breakfast and freshly made ginger tea outside my door. Communication before and during my stay was excellent. Guests are kindly asked to observe certain quiet hours, which I found very relaxing. There was also a lovely atmosphere in the breakfast room with the other guests. I heard how warmly and affectionately Lorraine interacted with the local children on Halloween, which I thought was really lovely too. If I ever visit the Lake District again, I know exactly where I’ll stay! Thank you so much for everything!

"Wonderful Stay"

9.0

Lorraine was the perfect host, from arrival to departure. We stayed in room 8 which was cozy but all we hoped for during our stay. Beautifully decorated, lots of hot water with beautiful toiletries. The breakfast was lip smacking! Central location perfect to explore shops, restaurants and pubs. We were able to park on road without any problems. Will definitely return and recommend.
