"Amazing Victorian building situated in a great location only a 15 min walk into Keswick.Onsite free parking so no need to move your vehicle for the duration of your stay if you are there for the walks. Public transport passes also if needed. The rooms are clean, Bedroom has Tea/Coffee/ Biscuits. Bathroom we stayed in had bath, shower and products to use. Such lovely touches in this property, cosy lounge area’s to sit in with games, chess etc. One lounge area had an expresso machine , Water and fresh pieces of cake for anyone to help themselves too. Great breakfast for you to choose. The most friendly staff we have come across a perfect family business We have stayed in many places in the Lake District but this was by far the best.They deserve there five star reviews, We will return.."

"Really nice staff. Peter was especially helpful putting something I’d left on one side until I could return and pick it up. The hotel is pretty big running along several Georgian houses. The room was very large and very well modernised As a hotel they don’t serve breakfast but that’s not an issue as several nearby places do. It’s located on a lovely spot - probably the best area to see Cockermouth . I’d thoroughly recommend it"
