Well appointed B&B a short walk to Keswick centre. Parking can be difficult but when you find a space you don't need to move it again.. Breakfast is full and excellent quality and the hosts are lovely. Great walks around the local area for all levels which the owners are very knowledgeable on

Lovely welcoming hosts, really enjoyed our weekend and felt like "coming home" everytime we stepped through the door. Warm welcome and lovely family feel. Lovely rooms. Mattress comfort and bedding were perfection- especially after clocking up some miles on the old legs. Perfect location, close to all amenities without any traffic noise. Would recommend.
