We received such a warm welcome upon arrival at this bnb. We were asked if we would like tea and were pleasantly surprised to find it also meant delicious homemade scones with jam and cream! The rooms were a fantastic size, were spotless and had everything you would need. We were only disappointed that we could not stay for more... More

When walking a long distance footpath a number of things become very important and a friendly welcome at the end of the day's walk with victoria sponge and tea must be right there with the important things. Hot shower and somewhere to relax in comfort follow. An extensive and interesting breakfast menu that you know will get the next day... More

If you are ever in this area, stay here.Accommodation and food excellent.

We received a wonderful welcome here (accompanied by excellent tea and home made scones!). We stayed in a very comfortable, spotlessly clean room with its own sitting room attached.

The pub just down the road gave us an excellent dinner. We enjoyed a comfortable night and a delicious breakfast before Bob drove us back... More

The best thing I could possibly say about Bob and Irene is that they made us feel like friends visiting their beautiful home. They were wonderfully helpful and gracious hosts. Breakfast was very good and the town of Lowick is charming. Great pub food just down the street, by the way.
