to get started.

Excellent hospitality. Great breakfast, tea and cake and shortbread were perfect 😊. Nothing was too much trouble.

Lucy, United Kingdom

Sheila was a fantastic host that made sure we were very comfortable. Exceptional breakfast both mornings and delicious cake to come back to after a nice big walk out in the hills. There is also a very friendly cat called Pippin!

Rebecca, United Kingdom

Lovely farmhouse in a fantastic location, homeley rooms with very comfortable beds and an amazing English breakfast each morning! Plus a friendly cat and a nice warm log fire. The host Sheila was very friendly and helped us find a nice route to walk around the lake and immediately after tea and cake to recover!

Sam, United Kingdom

Very warm welcome. The whole house was warm, comfortable and a relaxing environment. Sheila had thought of absolutely everything her guests could need. Also enjoyed Pippin's company ! I would recommend High Wray Farm very highly to anyone and am looking forward to returning in future.

Alison, United Kingdom

Fab welcome with tea and cake, gorgeous room and location. Owner really friendly.

Michael, United Kingdom

What an excellent B & B. Great room, recent refurbishment of facilities, fantastic breakfast and very helpful and friendly owner. The farm is a little bit outside of its nearest villages but you are well informed of this before booking; didn't prove a problem to us, Hawkshead is only a few minutes away by car. Shiela made our stay an excellent experience; we would definitely stay here again if we were in the area.

Jonathan, United Kingdom

It was truly stunning, the room was immaculate, the service was fantastic, every requirement was catered for, the breakfast was perfect and we were made to feel more than welcome. Truly amazing.

Damian, United Kingdom

Lovely old farmhouse. Would be very interested to learn it's history

Hazel, United Kingdom

Unfortunately due my sister being poorly, i visited alone. I had no transport and the farm is a few miles from nearest town. However, Sheila the owner was very helpful and made calls to find out ferry travel as this had been stopped due to heavy rainfall. Other guests dropped me into Ambleside and very much enjoyed the scenic walk back to the farm. High Wray Farm was very comfortable ...an absolute home from home. Sheila was perfect host, eager to please and made my visit perfect. Breakfast was excellent and set me up for the many walks of the day. My bed was incredibly comfortable and having travelled so much over the last few weeks, this was the perfect retreat and recharge in readiness for the next leg of my travels. All in all I cannot praise High Wray Farm enough. Thank you Sheila and for my lift to Windermere this morning to catch my train. Sheila (the traveller) Maleny, Australia

The cosy cottage was very homely complete with cat in front of the fire, and a yummy home cooked breakfast with local food every morning. Sheila was a very friendly and helpful host. The room was clean and comfy, with the cottage in a picturesque and quiet location. Plus homemade cake and shortbread waiting back at the cottage each day after a long days walking.
