    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.

    Very warm welcome from Ben and Virginia. Comfortable room with great views. Great breakfast, with lots of options. Really helpful about local walks and facilities. Fantastic location for visiting the nearby lakes and hills. Pub with decent food and drink in easy walking distance. The accommodation is a developing project - a former guest house that the owners are updating and are refreshing well. We would stay there again

    We booked Link House last minute, after other plans had fallen through, so the only accommodation they had left was a twin room. Despite this, we had a very comfortable and enjoyable stay. Pete and Katie are the perfect hosts, very attentive and welcoming. They emailed us before our stay with dinner recommendations and when we arrived gave us complimentary tea in the garden. The accommodation is extremely clean and the breakfast was delicious. I would highly recommend. This is a lovely place to explore The Lakes from.

    Perfect location for exploring the area. Easily accessible for walks and places to eat. Parking on-site. Breakfast was plentiful, good choice and a tasty start to the day. The owners were very welcoming, incredibly helpful and full of advice if help to plan days out or find places to eat was needed. The accommodation was very clean and Covid safe. It was a lovely stay.
