“They treat us like dogs! (they love dogs!!)”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 July 2010
1
person found this review helpful

From the historic monument, a stoney path leads up to this hidden jewel of a B&B. It has a large low roof protecting a lovely old stone farmhouse. Outside there are ducks sat in a shallow stream and a baby rabbit chews grass where we parked. The house is appropiatly furnished with real antque pine, and lovely old clocks and a piano.
Our room was simple, a really comfortable bed with a beautiful quilt, and lovely wall hangings and pictures. En-suite, tea & coffee, and views of the garden.
Breakfast was faultless, good ingredients bought by Steve, and beautifully cooked by Linda. She laughs a lot, but she can't help it, this is such a happy place, heavenly.

“A lovely, people/dog friendly B&B”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 June 2010

people found this review helpful

Steve and Linda make this a very relaxing and comfortable place to stay and couldn't be more helpful and friendly. We stayed for 3 nights and would have stayed longer if we could. They are real dog lovers so it was a great place to take our dog Nell, except for her cat aversion! Sorry Pandora. Gatehouse of Fleet is close by and, if you have a dog, it might help to know you can take dogs in most of the bars there. And, if you like walking and wildlife and beautiful scenery, this area is the place to go.

“Favourite B&B”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 August 2007
2
people found this review helpful

This is our second visit to this B&B We run a B&B ourselves and cannot fault this one. It only has 3 stars because of a technicallity
they really deserve 4 stars. We had an en-suite room and the other virtually had its own bathroom. It is a charming farmhouse at the end of a track and basking in the warmth of the Gulf Stream. There are views of the fells and ducklings paddling in the stream which flows through the garden. Steve and Lynn are great hosts, great reparte and humour, great ambience, quality breakfasts. It is a perfect little place to do the seaside or fell walking from. They also love our dog.
