Shap Wells Hotel

"The service was good. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Our experience of the room was adequate, however we could not use the shower it was impossible to have a shower due to the low ceiling so we could not stand up straight. I personally could not use the bath due to myself falling a few years back and having a complete new elbow since this incident I am very cautious of getting into a bath. This being the case I did not have a proper clean. This was not good has we had been hiking and really wanted to get ourselves cleaned up and changed. The staff were very friendly and helpful and you could not fault the food at all it was excellent."

George and Dragon Clifton

"The room was freezing! The heating only came on for a couple of hours. The room was ok comfy bedding, not worth £175 though. The shower made a squealing noise and the bath tap dripped all night. Breakfast alright (beans were cold). The staff at the bar and restaurant were commendable."

Brooklands Guest House

"BEAUTIFUL! We had a lovely little stay here such a stunning guest house. The decor is something else found myself walking around fascinated by all the historical items. Sue is very kind and helpful and made us feel at home. I love the attention to detail here, water in fridge,biscuits,even umbrellas at front door. The rooms are beautiful and quirky and such comfy beds. Breakfast was very tasty all home cooked to perfection. Area was lovely and quiet and only 3min walk into Penrith town, Perfect location for walk in lakes. We will certainly be back. This is definitely worth a visit you won’t be disappointed! Thanks again Sue"

Glendale Guest House

"stayed one night, single room £55 plus £5 for breakfast. Very good deal when compared with the competition. Located a short walk from the town centre. Parking can be an issue in Penrith, but Glendale are lucky to have a cheap public car park just a minute's walk away! Parking is free 6pm until 8am. Glendale is definitely a high quality B&B, fully refurbed mid 1800's spacious building oozes character with its decor, carefully selected furniture and adornments in the shared areas. My room was immaculate. The owners are very friendly and attentive and obviously go the extra mile to please their guests. 5* will return"

Macdonald Leeming House

"Suitable for self-driving tours, other ways to come over is more troublesome, the room may be close to the woods, some small flying insects in the room."

The Kings Arms Temple Sowerby

"An excellent place to stay overnight. We requested a quiet room which was at back of hotel and no traffic noise. The room was large and well appointed, with a large en-suite bathroom. Guests seemed to be those stopped on a long journey or as an overnight of a long distance walk All the staff from the first welcome, in the bar and dining area were friendly and helpful. We had dinner which was excellent, hubby had home made steak and ale pie and I had lamb en-croute, both of which were large portions, delicious and good value for money"
