Quaint Cottage in The Lakes
Fantastic cottage, just 5 miles from Keswick. Small and quaint, everything you need for a week away. Kitchen well stocked, private outside area to sit and chill of an evening. To big bedrooms, one with an ensuite plus a main bathroom. Real value for money!! I would strongly recommend and stay!

Heads up on the damp
Sadly they are still to refurbish some of the bedrooms, the room I had had damp everywhere, patches of plaster off the wall. Had I know I would not have booked that place, when i complained they apologised but that was it, marred my stay with them definately.

Perfect Lake District Stopover
Cosy pub/ restaurant/ hotel in a stunning Lake District spot.
Sunday lunch was extremely tasty, served by very attentive staff.
Our room, the Blencathra suite, was a perfect fit for our family. Spotlessly clean, super comfortable bed, which made for great nights sleep.

Had such a lovely stay in The Horse & Farrier Inn. Rooms were small but clean and had all the facilites needed. Food at both dinner and breakfast was delicious. Location is great, only a short drive into Keswick, with beautiful views of the mountains. Staff were really friendly and helpful. Will definitely return.

Lovely little pub, which is dog friendly in the bar but sadly not the rooms. Pleasant stay in a very small twin room, good breakfast included and nice pub food available in the evening.
