Guest Reviews
- James (9/5): - Very comfortable and the owners were delightful and super helpful
- Julie (10/5): Brilliant stay will definitely stay again. - Lovely place with fantastic view from the sitting room. Everything had been thought of and the homemade flapjacks was a bonus. Nothing
- Peter (10/5): The perfect place from which to explore the beautiful’Lake District’. - Beautiful house, both outside and in which is maintained to a very high standard. Rooms were spotlessly clean and extremely comfortable with pleasant views from most of them. The couple who run the guest house are a mine of information regarding the area and always willing and able to help you to organise your days spent in the area. Nothing!
- David (7/5): Warm and Welcoming. - The Owners were lovely and helpful. They provided a very useful guide for local services. The room said it had a shower, this was a sit in the bath shower not a full shower. I tried to have a bath and the water was luke warm at best.
- Anthony (10/5): Very nice - Lovely location , clean, nice rooms.
- Adjei Lukmann (9/5): -
- Charlotte (9/5): Perfect - highly recommended. - Clean, friendly, lovely cosy room with Mountain View, fantastic breakfast and accommodating hosts Nothing - maybe just that blackout linings on the curtains would have been the icing on the cake.
- Abby (10/5): -
- Flower (10/5): Amazing place and hospitality - We had a lovely stay. Everything was exceptional and the full English is well worth a mention.

The owners were extremely friendly, welcoming and very happy to share knowledge of the area. My single room was very small and the bed wasn’t very comfortable. But it was good value for the price.

Very clean and well maintained, we stayed in the tripple room, which was lovely, roomy and comfortable. Craig and Clare couldn't do enough and were very insightful about the surrounding area. It's close to Castlerigg Stone Circle and Keswick with the Farmers Arms around a 5 minute walk away We all had a wonderful 2 night stay and would highly recommend, so much so that we're already organising another visit next year. Nothing really hus maybe a later checkout

- Rukin (10/5): Outstanding. Spotlessly clean. Wondeful hosts - From the second we walked in to this outstanding B&B, we knew we would be back. The whole place is spotless and beautifully decorated. Home-made flapjacks welcomed us along with a wonderful tour and chat with Clare. Our room had everything we needed and was so comfortable. The newly renovated bathroom had a wow factor that is unusual for a B&B. Breakfast was to die for! Claire and Craig are a dynamic duo and between them serve up absolutely anything you could imagine. The views from the beautifully maintained gardens are incredible and Craig and Claire‘s knowledge of the local area means you’re never short of advice on what to do and where to go. This was the most relaxing stay we have ever had in a B&B And we recommend it highly to anyone looking to stay in the Keswick area. Nothing

Hosts were amazing, so friendly & happy to share their knowledge of the area - fantastic breakfast too 😁 - would definitely go back, even just to see Lego the pheasant 😂 xx Nothing!
- Rajesh (9/5): Quiet, comfortable. frindly. - Very convenient and quiet location. 15 minute walk to Keswick for food and shops. Host Claire showed me round and was very accomodating. It was easy to stay in touch via email and Whatsapp. Check in process very easy. This is really nit picking, but the toilet seat in my room would not stay up on its own, so gents have to sit down for No.1'. Otherwise everything was very comfortable and clean.

There was always hot water and the room was a lovely temperature. Even though we hadn’t booked breakfast they were able to facilitate us and it was most certainly worth it. The full breakfast was delicious and the coffee was spot on. They even had some lovely pheasants who roomed in the garden who even had names!! The homemade shortbread was delicious after a day of exploring.

Very, very, informative. The room was lovely, the view from the room was stunning, breakfast was amazing, the service, the choice, and the taste. (Thanks Clare.) We couldn't fault a thing. We really enjoyed our time at Dalegarth House. We will definitely return. There was nothing not to like. I can't see what more Craig and Clare could have done to make our stay more enjoyable.
- Brooke (10/5): Exceptional -
- Marc (10/5): Fandabydosy - Honest generous hosts-spacious house
- Carl (9/5): Dalegarth Guest House - A Little Gem in Portinscale - Craig and Chris were really accommodating hosts. My Wife and I booked at short notice and even though normal check in was not until late afternoon, we asked if it was possible to park our vehicle so we could take a walk-up Cat Bells. Not only did they allow us to park up early suggested we knock on the door in case a room was free, and we were in luck hence able to check in early and get on with our day. Chris is charge of the breakfast and it was lovely, choice of hot and cold, cereals, juice (cannot remember if any pastries were out - but fresh cake available free for guests) filled us up for the day. Also, if you want information about buses, restaurants, ferries across the lakes, walking routes Chris and Criag are full of local knowledge. After descending Cat Bells on their advice, we caught the ferry from Hawes End to Keswick only cost £12 for 2adults and saved us another 90mins walking. The location is gorgeous, quiet, spectacular views and lovely front garden. Coffee shop is close by with the Farmer Arms pub just down the road. Oh, and if you ask in advance, they will supply a packed lunch. We liked the location as it’s only a 15 / 20-minute walk into Keswick by foot. Recommend giving them a call as offer discounts direct. We will definitely be back. This was not our host's fault but our own as when we chose to book we forgot to check that the room had a shower and not a bath but will note that for next time.
- Tamal (10/5): Exceptional - Both Clare and Craig were very friendly, professional, and helpful. The breakfast was awesome, and the Flapjack left for the guests was yummy 😋 We enjoyed our whole stay and would strongly recommend all .
- Mark (10/5): Wonderful views - I really enjoyed my stay. The owners were really lovely people who made me feel very welcome. My room was really nice and comfortable. Breakfast was in a room with an incredible view of mountains. I would highly recommend a stay at this fabulous guest house.
- Ann-marie (10/5): Exceptional - Home baking added the little special touch Bar prices a touch high, shower door a bit small to get through
- Amanda (10/5): Kind, thoughtful owners with a desire to make you welcome. - Stunning location. Everything you needed you was there. Very welcoming with Craig taking the time to show you around the property. Breakfast was a relaxing experience with easy conversations and wonderful food to set you up for the day. Nothing
