Guest Reviews
- Simon (8/5): Beautiful place to stay, well placed to explore the lakes, would definitely return again. - Stylishly decorated, elegant, clean, large ceilings in bedrooms and luxurious bathrooms. Well equipped kitchen. Not the fault of the owners of the property or the bar/pub next door, patrons leaving the bar were a bit noisy. Place is in the high street, so traffic at night.

- Mihaela (10/5): - The stay at Cumberland house was way above our expectations. The house is superb and luxurious to the point that the pictures don't make it justice. We were welcome by the owners who were flexible with the check-in time. There's a generous parking space at the location, which is so convenient considering the central location of the property. Everything was spotless!! Beds very very comfortable! Warm and cozy with sky TV and a large variety of board games. The kitchen had everything we needed and more! There's are plenty of activity options, restaurants and bars nearby.
The house can sleep 6 people comfortably, with 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, kitchen/ dinning, living room and utility room. We had a little baby with us and they installed a cot for us. They were understanding and accommodated all our needs!
Highly recommend and we are planning to go again with the next occasion!

- Martin (9/5): -
- Smriti (10/5): An exceptional, spacious, and incredibly comfortable stay with a kitchen that made everything feel like home." - From start to finish, this property exceeded all my expectations. The kitchen was nothing short of spectacular – fully equipped with top-of-the-line appliances, cookware, and everything you could possibly need to create a home-cooked meal. Whether you're an amateur cook or a seasoned chef, this kitchen has it all!
The space itself was incredibly spacious, providing a sense of freedom and relaxation. The layout was thoughtful, and every corner of the property had been designed with comfort in mind. The beds were incredibly comfortable, ensuring a restful night’s sleep every time.
I truly felt at home during my stay – everything was designed to make guests feel pampered and relaxed. The attention to detail, comfort, and quality of this property really sets it apart from others. If you’re looking for a place that offers both practicality and luxury, look no further! Everything was exceptional.
- Michael (10/5): It was very comfortable. You like living with your dream - It was wonderful Nothing at all
- Betsy (10/5): Lovely house - Great house spacious welll maintained super lovely host! Nothing
- Yau (8/5): -
- Bessy (10/5): Clean and plenty space to stay - All over everything is good Nothing
- Simone (10/5): Enjoyable stay in a thought through house - The property is lovely, but is the host that really made the difference.
The host really thought about everything - from the air fryer to laundry, to dishwasher tablets and shower gel and shampoo.
They were also accommodating to our late arrival, for which we still really thank them
- Hasan (10/5): - The host was an absolute pleasure. Good city location with halal takeaway nearby. The checkout time was earlier than standard practice of midday and not mentioned anywhere until host messaged last morning, leaving limited time to cleanup and checkout which is not always easy with kids.
- Eve (8/5): -
- Yick Chong (9/5): Highly recommended - I’ve stayed in many Airbnbs across different countries, and this is by far the cleanest one. You can really feel the host’s care in every detail – from the tasteful decor to the variety of board games provided. Everything is super tidy and clean. The kitchen is fully equipped with appliances and utensils. Perfect for families. Highly recommended! There is no shampoo and conditioner provided.
- james (10/5): - Lots of space, great location and the host was fantastic
- Simon (9/5): Gorgeous property in a cute little town. - The property was beautifully presented and really spacious. Everything felt clean and crisp. The 2 bathrooms made it super easy as we were getting ready to go out. The parking on site was something id overlooked and that was a weight off my mind. The host met us and did a quick tour, giving us some local recommendations- all super helpful. It was reassuring that we had been contacted prior to our stay and knew the host was only a call or text away, on hand to help. The high street could get a little rowdy at night but thats not something that the host can control- plus we liked being central to the town centre and it's amenities.
We couldn't master the connection to upstairs tvs.

- dawn (10/5): -
- Karin (10/5): -
- Taugir (10/5): Great experience and highly recommended - Nice and clean property Nothing
- Alison (9/5): - The house is spacious, with a very well equipped kitchen. It is very nicely furnished and a thoughtful selection of food items were left for us. The host was very friendly and communicative. There was bike storage, which was great. The house is adjacent to a pub and, as it was a warm summer’s evening and we had some windows open, there was quite a lot of noise late into the evening.
- Trevor (10/5): A fantastic find for a staycation. - The property was fantastic. Exceptionally clean, and equipped with everything you could possibly need for a family getaway. The rooms are all a great size and beautifully decorated. The location is right in the middle of the town with a bar, bookshops and supermarket right outside the front door. Showers are brilliant and beds are all so comfortable. Off-street parking with secure gates so the dogs could have a run around. That we only booked for 1 night!
- Karen (9/5): -
- Jaesell (10/5): -
- Jaesell (10/5): Amazing - Very spacious and nicely decorated. The place was clean and fully equipped. Gillian was kind to move forward our check in time which we really appreciated. Left my watch at the place and Gillian was really kind enough to post it forward. Everything was perfect.
- Linda (9/5): Gillian is a wonderful host who has provided a beautifully appointed home with everything a holiday maker needs. - Absolutely fabulous accommodation- spotlessly clean, and beautifully appointed. One of the best self-catering houses we’ve ever stayed in. Gillian has provided everything you need for a relaxing holiday. She quickly responded to my questions and requests and provided an extremely generous welcome package. Our family loved it - especially our twin grandsons who enjoyed playing with the games and jigsaws provided. Its proximity to a lively pub on a Saturday night - we’re light sleepers but the rest of the family didn’t hear a thing! No fault of the owner though and didn’t spoil our holiday.
- Peter (10/5): -
- Stacey (9/5): This was our first time in the lakes and we will definitely be returning - The property was very clean and well renovated. We are a family of 5 and it was very spacious in a great location There was nothing not to like.
- Reema Rita (10/5): " Fantastic 2-night stay! The hospitality was top-notch, and communication was effortless. 100% recommendation! &qu - Clean property Nothing

- Trevor (10/5): -
- Helen (10/5): -
- Michelle (10/5): Fabulous. - Perfectly decorated and clean yet homely feel. Made us feel very welcome. Very responsive owner and super considerate.
- Wayne (10/5): Wonderful - Lovely comfortable stay, the owners are very accommodating and provide everything needed.
- Leon (10/5): - Everything was great, the place is in a beautiful town and it was perfect for having a laugh with friends after a nice hike
- Steven (10/5): Super place for a family trip! - Cumberland House was perfect for our family gathering! On arrival, we found ample secure parking for our 2 cars (at the property). We were then welcomed by the owners and made to feel at home! Extremely comfortable, with 3 bedrooms, able to accommodate bigger families than ours. Upstairs, the master bedroom was huge with a massive wide screen television plus 2 other good sized bedrooms and a shower room.
Downstairs, a pleasant, comfortable lounge and a large, well equipped kitchen -dining room with a spacious, additional bathroom (with a a large bath!)The whole house was modern, nicely decorated and with a very high standard of fittings and fixtures.
Situated in the Main Street of Cockermouth, with lots of shops and restaurants, (and nice pubs!) this is a great location from which to tour the Lake District!
- Scott (10/5): -
- susan (10/5): Beautiful house, very high standard, comfortable with all conveniences you need. Would highly recommend. - Beautiful old building, converted police station. Exceptional high standard, everything you need and then some. Central to Cockermouth and all facilities. Could not praise this property enough, would highly recommend. The owner Jillian’s was very friendly and helpful, on arrival it was a nice surprise to find some basic supplies, milk, bread etc.
- Martin (10/5): You have to stay here. Seriously!! - This is truly an aspirational property to stay in. Very high quality fixtures and fittings / decor and a really inviting place to stay. Truly a home from home.
The host was excellent and nothing was too much trouble. The only thing we felt bad about, was not actually taking anyone else to stay there with us, as this place can easily accommodate a family / a number of couples.
Cockermouth itself, also has everything you could ever need (and is very dog friendly) and there's even a cocktail / wine bar, right next door (though the slight downside is that they don't become silent until 11:30pm...albeit that they are across the archway, so not so bad...and the solution is to go and join them and have a drink or three. They make excellent cocktails...and you might also get a discount if you mention that you're staying next door 😉)
All in all, I can genuinely say that you need to stay here. It was fantastic!!
- Pamela (10/5): Perfect hidden gem 🤩 - Everything 🤩
Lovely friendly host. Couldn’t have been more helpful at such a short notice booking.
Gorgeous house, modern facilities and furniture. Well equipped, literally had everything we needed. Beds super comfortable.
Ideal for kids a range of puzzles, books and games to keep them entertained.
We absolutely loved it.
Thank you for a pleasant overnight stay, our only wish is that we were there longer. N/A

- Omkar (9/5): Satisfying and worth the money - The property is really well maintained. Spacious rooms and living area. Very clean and all the basic facilities/utlities/goodies were available of good brands, and which was exceptional. We travelled during Christmas so had a beautiful Christmas tree decor in the house with lots of children games available. Only thing I felt was it’s near to a pub and main road and I travelled with a two year old who is a light sleeper and it was a Christmas week which caused little inconvenience but after 1 or 2 o clock at night it was all quite and he could sleep better
- Moushumi (9/5): A fantastic property I have ever stayed - Everything was just immaculate. Parking was very secure. All grocery shopping stores were literally 5 mins walking distance.
I had only one reservation that the property was on a high street. So I was trying to check a few other properties in a quiet location. But finally I booked this one. And really, no regrets at all.
Though it's on the high Street also near the pub, I along with other friends could not hear any loud sounds. Overall a beautiful property with everything spot on. And yes also, a fantastic Gillian (the owner of the property).
- Colin (10/5): Exceptional house and Host - Has echoed by other reviews Cumberland house is exceptional. The photos do not do it justice, the space is brilliant, the fixtures and fittings are top of the range.
The location is excellent, great for all amenities and there are some great walks around the town. You are only a short drive into the heart of the Lake District.
Most of the host Gillian goes above and beyond to make you stay as comfortable as possible Nothing, can’t wait to visit again
- Andrew (10/5): -
- Jen (10/5): - Fab property, high standard finish. Clean and comfortable, everything you would need. Beds comfy. Photos don’t do it justice.
- Crazeenick (10/5): One of the best places I have every stayed - SUPERB - Fabulous property, extremely well equipped, highest quality fittings and interior, very comfortable and spacious, great location, tea, coffee, fresh milk, biscuits, bread provided, free parking for 3 cars Nothing really!
- Julia (10/5): Gorgous house in an ideal location. - Everything about the house was perfect - it was so clean and cosy. The owners were so friendly and helpful. We absolutley loved our stay here, and wish we were there for longer. The beds were extra comfy, and the main bedroom is just gorgeous. Everything was just superb - highly recommend a stay here.
We were a group of 6 - 4 adults and 2 children - and we felt we had so much space. The pub next door was a little bit noisey - other than that, it is a perfect accomodation!
- michal (10/5): - Spacious, welcoming, unique! Everything was great!
- Foley (10/5): Perfect - We had the most amazing weekend away for my mum's birthday, Gillian was so lovely and welcoming! She has a beautiful house and we had everything we needed there! She added an extra special birthday touch which we were so grateful for. We had more than enough room with having two young children with us and the house was very warm and comfortable. Will 100% be coming back! Nothing!
- Graham (10/5): - Beautiful spacious excellent location Nothing
- lezli ann (10/5): Excellent accommodation. Very well equipped.Spotlessly clean. Great location with parking. - Nothing!
