From the minute we stepped into the room we knew we would be very comfortable. The room has a really cosy feel with beds and pillows that just hug you to sleep after a tiring day walking in the hills and taking in all that fresh air. The breakfast was outstanding and we were excited to be sitting at the breakfast table on the second day knowing what was about to come. The hosts were really lovely and the attention to details in the room and the view from the window means we will definately be back. ##### Wendy Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2017 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Aug 16, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Quiet location near Keswick centre Breakfast really good with a large selection and asked if we had any special dietary requirements.
