To date, Albany House is the best B&B we have stayed in. Beautiful, comfortable rooms, excellent food (and I mean excellent!...the full English Breakfast was amazing) and truly wonderful hosts. They helped us above and beyond what one would expect. The location was ideal, especially for walking to the shopping center in the centre of town.

My husband and I booked in at the Albany whilst we were doing the coast to coast.We couldn't fault our stay. The rooms were clean, modern and very comfortable with personal touches (chocolate brownies) very welcome after a long day. The breakfasts were superb. We would recommend the Albany to any wishing to feel pampered and spolit to stay at... More

We stayed at this B & B whilst on the C2C and couldn't fault the facilities or service. Great welcome, very clean and comfy beds. The hot shower was lush after a long day on the saddle and the breakfast in the morning was amazing. The owner has gone out of her way to add touches like complimentary chocolate brownies... More

We arrived at Albany House on the friday before Easter. We were staying in the family room and were shown to the room only to find an (expertly chosen! Hello Kitty and Moshi Monster!) Easter Egg for each of our kids on their bed... so thoughtful and made us feel very welcome. There were so many lovely touches that really... More

Really enjoyed staying here. Nice owners, too. Just a short walk to town. Well worth going. Would def stay again. Brilliant breakfast! Nice views out back, too, over the church. Good for bikers on the c to c, too. Lots of nice touches, such as snack and sweet in the room.

The rooms were modern, clean and very comfortable beds. Excellent en-suite shower room. Lots of tea, coffee and bottled water. The breakfast was very high quality, lots of lovely fresh fruit, porridge and beautifully cooked full English. Lovely touch of chocolate brownies in the room. I would definitely stay here again.

As frequent visitors to the Lake District, this is our most favourite Bed and Breakfast. Archie and Susan are a genuinely delightful couple who always make you feel most welcome. They have invested a huge amount of time, money and effort in their business, which has resulted in a beautifully appointed and absolutely immaculate B and B that offers superb... More

A pity I only had one night here as I really enjoyed my stay. I was working in Penrith for one day so had to travel up from London the day before which is why I booked a guest house. The Albany was a real 'find'. So very comfortable and clean with lots of smashing finishing touches. Excellent breakfast too.
