This was the first time we have stayed over at the Lakes and spent two nights at the Rayrigg. It was superb and suited our needs perfectly. We were not hiking or walking but simply wanted a couple of day to eat beautiful food, drink and absorb the scenery. For this reason the Rayrigg suited us brilliantly. We were perfectly... More

Stayed here one night to attend a wedding nearby. Wills the owner kindly allowed us to access the rooms early.When we asked about local taxis he offered to drive us to the wedding in his own car (which was fast and delighted my husband!!). We turned heads on arrival!! Rooms were comfortable and the breakfast was delicious nad very filling.... More

Smells like someone has been smoking for 200 years! Very old fashioned, shower was black, bathroom smelt like urine. Tiny room! Do not stay here! More

We had been driving and arrived in the afternoon. We are 2 women on holidays and Wills greeted us at the door. Carried our bags into the clean, cosy room and even parked the car for us. He drove us to the lake in his car and we went on a cruise of the lake. The bed was very comfortable... More

The room was the size of a single room, but with two single beds crammed... More

We had a lovely warm welcome from Wills and Pauline when we arrived, after a very long journey. Lovely clean rooms, comfortable beds and fantastic freshly cooked, hot food! Yum, Yum! ( Don't... More

Friendly owners, clean rooms & hearty breakfast. The en-suite was a little cramped (we stayed in rooms 5 & 7), but preferred that to a bathroom on a landing. More
