We loved this spot, our favourite of our trip so far. The location is stunning, building is lovely and charming, staff were helpful, breakfast was great, rooms were clean, very comfortable, and nicely decorated and it’s right on one of the lakes. We also felt it was great value. We were accidentally high maintenance guests (international debit card didn’t work at first, I accidentally knocked my glass of wine over at dinner, had some wi fi problems in our friends room) but the woman who I’m guessing was the manager was very helpful and nothing seemed like too much trouble.

The location is very good: it's not by the lake, BUT it is close to the starting point of many hiking trails and very close to the bus stop. The hosts were very friendly and helpful, my train was delayed twice by more than 3 hours in total and I had to use the late check-in option, and that happened without any trouble. The building is very old (in a good sense, try asking the hosts about its history) and very well maintained. The breakfast was nice, wish they had scrambled eggs though. They mention it here, but once again - this building does not have a lift.

Beautiful building in a lovely quiet location but close enough to the town of Coniston . The hosts were lovely and we weren’t expecting a few extras like tea and cake on arrival , little touches like fresh milk and sherry in the room. The room was clean with fresh quality linen and very comfortable . There was a great selection of breakfast , cereals , fresh fruit and a fabulous cooked breakfast . Plenty parking . We will definitely be back and will recommend to friends and family .
