I was very impressed with the cleanliness and comfort of the guesthouse for the price we paid (£65 pn for double ensuite) Breakfast was very good and the two brothers were extremly helpful with any enquires that we had. The house is in a decent location about half a mile from the lake,ignore the reviewer who said it is a 20 min walk, he must be walking backwards, it's about 8-10 minutes. The only downside was the on street parking which can be a nightmare, but no blame is attached to the guest house for this. On this subject make sure you draw your life savings out of the bank before you visit the lakes because the car park rates have to be some of the worst in the country. Love the lake district and would recommend this guesthouse.

FIRSTLY,do not under any circumstances, attempt to book to stay here.The place should not even be trading,We payed upfront for 3 nights and checked out after 1 night. freezing cold everywhere in the place ,workmen on the roof,plaster on the stairs and in our room from roofers working,tv not working, toilet would,nt flush,stains on the bed sheets.No staff apart from 2 alien brothers who look dirty and scruffy, they cook your breakfeast, say no more,be carefull,you have been warned.Also it is in a very bad location about 20 mins hike back from lake up a very very very steep hill.Also had a lot of problems getting my money back for the 2 outstanding nights they tried to not give me a refund. they are horrible conmen,Beware,you have been warned.

I booked a room for 3 nights through bookdirectrooms.com. The rate per night was discounted to half the normal price per night. I was called up a few days later by the owner and he said that the rate i had paid was wrong and he wanted me to pay him double per night. I phoned up bookdirectrooms customer service and they said that they could do not do anything as the owner of the B&B can change their mind and this is stated in their terms and conditions. They did state that the discounted price I had paid was agreed by the B&B, and it was not bookdirectrooms mistake. I had booked for bank holiday weekend and I am guessing that the owner had desperate people willing to pay the full rate last minute. I cancelled the booking and recieved a full refund.

This is probabaly one of the best Band Bs we have used
It was beautifully decorated, very comfortable beds and Geoff and Howard were so hospitable.
Of course the breakfasts were the MAIN EVENT - good local food - fabulous bacon and sausages and more. Thankyou Howard.
We also appreciated their local knowledge, being able to use the lounge in the evenings
and the friendly atmosphere.
Parking in the street was good.
Hope to be able to visit again.

We had a lovely time and
