Stayed for one night with my boyfriend, to get a break from it all and this was definitely the right place. Nothing was too much trouble, facilities great, bar food gorgeous, lovely atmosphere and tidy rooms. We actually had a bit of a hiccup from expedia as they sold a family room with 2 double beds that the hotel didnt have.

We stayed here from 27 November 15 to 1st December 15 and had a fantastic time. They couldn't do enough for us and were always there to give information when we asked. They even catered for my fiances breakfast of a burger every morning - if that's not customer service and going the extra mile I don't know what is. We look forward to having our wedding reception there in June 2016 and hopefully we will get to visit again before then. Can't recommend enough - great food great atmosphere very...

The staff couldn’t have been more welcoming they were superb.
We were sorry the restaurant and bar were shut and there was no hot option for breakfast. (We stayed Sunday to Monday)

This was the best B&B by far I have ever stayed in. The room was spotless and a very comfy bed.
The full Cumbrian breakfast was delicious and plenty of it, There was also a good alternative menu aswell.
But if you decide to have an evening meal you are in for a real treat. Darryl is a trained Chef and the meals he serves are amazing.

My wife and I stayed here for one night 20-8-26, the place is really easy to find, located in a village out in the countryside a few miles from Carlisle. Everything about the place is great, the food, the beer, the location and car parking. Best of all are the staff, really friendly and helpful. We will be staying here again on our way home from Scotland in a week and am looking forward to it. The coked breakfast is huge and really good, as is the porridge.
