Loved the location and how attentive Karen and Tim our hosts were. Nothing was too much trouble and we were made to feel welcome from the minute we arrived. Our room had a great view on the lake and Tim's breakfasts were fantastic. Karen gave us loads of advice on local travel and where to eat out on an evening. I really would recommend staying here in the future.

Everything! Karen and Tim are the most welcoming of hosts and their place is spotless. Their standards are high and everything was high quality. The room was lovely and had a fab view over Bassenthwaite lake. The bed was super comfortable and the refreshments in the room were excellent. Breakfast was superb. The muesli is the best you’ll ever taste and the porridge is delicious. All cooked options are good. We never got to the pancakes but they looked great too! The property is between Keswick and Cockermouth and close to the A66 so access is good.

We had a wonderful stay - a lovely warm welcome from Karen and a very comfy room with everything we could need. The location is great, a short drive to lovely Keswick and close to some nice places to eat. It was also great to get lots of ideas for days out from Tim and Karen in advance of our stay, so we could plan ahead. The best thing about the Lakeside though is the breakfast - it was amazing!! Lots of options from which you order the night before, the only issue is having enough room to eat everything you fancy!

Karen greeted us on arrival, a very pleasant lady. She showed us to room No.1 and then went off to get us tea and cake! The very large room with view of the Lake and hills was spotlessly clean as was the whole house. The large bed was very comfortable with cabinets and lamps either side. Two chairs near the window next to the tea/coffee making sideboard were well used. The large tv on the wall over the sideboard had plenty of channels.There was a mirrored dressing table with stool next to the wardrobe, with full length mirror opposite, and seperate coat hooks near the bed. The bathroom had a walkin shower, heated towel rail, basin with illuminated mirror, and toilet with toiletries provided. Breakfast in the large bright airy dining room was fantastic. A great variety and GLUTEN FREE options, all served at table, freshly cooked to order (previous evening), using mainly local produce. Tim and Karen do a great job (I noticed Tim helping guests with luggage), are excellent hosts, and go that extra mile to make the stay very enjoyable. The location was easy to find, and is great for touring the Lakes and even up into Scotland. We highly recommend this guest house.

I can't think of anything that I did not like. Tim and Karen go out of their way to make guests feel welcome.

There is a big choice of breakfast and it is all of high quality. I used to look forward to my breakfast in the morning! The cooked breakfast is excellent and the vegetarian choices are equally good. I did try those too, on other days. I was lucky enough to have warm weather during my stay and ate my breakfast on the terrace, watching the many birds on the various feeders.
