Our room was lovely and comfortable and had a great view. The breakfast was excellent, one of the best Guest House/hotel breakfasts we have had. The hotel is in the... More

This hotel has it all. A wonderful location just above Derwentwater with mountain views all round, lovely food and very comfortable rooms. The new owners are very enthusiastic and warm and really make you feel at home and that nothing is too much trouble, even inventing a vegetarian dish for mer at the last minute! A stay here also represents... More

A big thank you to Pauline and Bruce for their warm welcome. The food was excellent, as always, and Bruce does his best to use local produce and produce a varied menu with plenty of choice. The desserts are fabulous. My only complaint is that I always put on weight! Pauline is a great hostess and is very knowledgable about... More

What a lovely weekend our friends and us had, a lovely house set in the nice village of Portinscale but only a 20 min walk in Keswick. Rooms where very nicely decorated with all the extra's, breakfast was well cooked and we can highly recommend the evening meal. Plenty of walks from the village a lovely local pub too. Thanks...

We were warmly welcomed by Pauline - co-owner with her husband Bruce (who did all the cooking). A lovely well set out room with comfortable beds. The food was amazing and we enjoyed it immensely. The hotel was easy to find being situated just outside Keswick and had good parking facilities. The weather certainly could have been better but it... More
