The hosts Tim and Karen couldn't do enough to make our stay enjoyable. They were not intrusive but were on hand if we needed anything. The bedroom (Rm 1) was very comfortable and the view of the lake and mountains from it was beautiful. Breakfast was most enjoyable with an extensive menu that covered every taste. There was plenty of advice available in the bedroom re places to eat and visit, plus essential information that might have been required such as taxis, medical assistance and so on.
I would have liked a bath but knew there would only be a large shower (which worked well and looked new!). Everything was perfect so nothing anti to report.

Very lovely cottage in the center of lake disctrict - outside of the main cities but close to everything. with amasing owners, ready to help us on many occasions. They gave us very accurate recommendations for restaurant which eased our mind - as they were really tasty and not pricey. We had the chance to stay in the double room with view on the lake, it worth it so much. They also offered some lunch packs for our hikes - fruit, sandwich, water and cakes for 8£ each. Due to the weather condition we did not try to have our breakfast outside, but on a sunny day, I would definitely recommending to try.

Tim and Karen are truly wonderful hosts - from the moment we arrived, greeted with offer of drinks (and delicious ginger flapjack!) through to our departure, we were treated almost as old friends such is the warm nature of the hosts. The house is beautifully presented with lovely front gardens (eating the delicious breakfast outside, weather permitting, is a great way to start the day), and located in a peaceful area, whilst still easy to reach main points of interest. We can't wait to return in the future and wouldn't hesitate recommending to anyone - thank you both!

The Lakeside Guest House was a delight, a very friendly welcome from the hosts Tim & Karen, who couldn't have done more to please. Breakfast was a delicious and so filling we skipped lunch whilst out hiking. We liked the location with it being so close to the lake and several Wainwrights on the doorstep. The room was well presented, clean and stocked with everything we needed, and the bed was comfy, which was needed after those long hikes zzzzz.

I loved the warm friendly welcome to the the Guest House, which was beautifully furnished and had amazing views especially the morning views. Karen & Tim are exceptional hosts and know how to make their guests feel at ease and relaxed from the start to finish of their stay. Nothing is too much trouble they went above and beyond to make our days memorable with their own personal touches and I would highly recommend this Guest house to anyone who would like to stay. Spotless throughout, fabulous ambiance, delicious food, extremely comfortable room and bathroom that met all our needs
You would find it very difficult to find anything unlikeable about this Guesthouse, infact I believe you would find it difficult to beat anywhere else.

Tim & Karen were so welcoming and friendly. Karen greeted us and made us feel at home immediately. She made us a cup of tea and explained the best places to eat that evening. The room was very clean and comfortable; just what we needed for a couple of nights. The breakfast was amazing, so filling and so delicious! The location was perfect for exploring Keswick and the surrounding areas. Would definitely recommend! We loved our stay, thank you!

The owners, Tim & and Karen, are fantastic. We arrived with a warm welcome and an unexpected bottle of bubbly to celebrate our anniversary. We were made to feel comfortable the whole stay. We could not have asked for better. The breakfast and quality were the best we have had. All fresh and local produce, highly recommended the full English and the pancakes. The location is perfect with fantastic views without flocks of people. Mostly highly recommended the guesthouse, we will definitely be going back.
There is nothing wrong with the property or hosts.

We loved the variety of breakfast on offer and everything we tried was delicious. The full English and the berry and honey porridge were especially good. The water pressure on the shower was also really good! Lovely views from the window and enjoyed watching the birds on the feeder over breakfast. All in all we felt very looked after.
The room was a bit too warm for us overnight despite turning the heating off.

Great location (just off A66), opposite Bassenthwaite Lake. Very well kept with lovely outdoor area. Room was very comfortable with all the amenities you need with a lovely view of the meadow. Breakfast was perfectly cooked with a wide range of options available (order online the day before). Hosts Karen & Tim were lovely; not obtrusive but there is you needed anything. Great value for money and would highly recommend.

Lakeside Tucked away in the Bassenthwaite Lake area, this historic B&B was a favorite! We loved the setting amidst flowers and meadows, bird songs and the most welcoming hosts. Breakfasts were yummy with a wide variety of choices expertly prepared and served in the beautiful outdoors or cosy dining room. Coffee and tea service was also available in the bedrooms, and the beds were very comfy. Parking was close and easy. We could not have felt more welcome!
