“A very pleasant experience”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 December 2011

person found this review helpful

Absolutely lovely place and charming hosts ! Stayed here for 2 nights only but have already decided to come here again and have also recommended the place to our business travel organisers.
Everything was just right, old house nicely decorated, large room with nice beds with duvets of right thickness, full tea kit, en suite power shower, TV that not only works but its image is crisp and clear, room instructions and guides intelligently put together that are actually helpful..
Nice day room and "honesty" bar...full English breakfast should you want it...very well located for everything, shopping, visiting, etc..Although on main road rooms are quiet. Everywhere little things that show attention to detail..
The place has its own B&B charm , if you are ready to enjoy it don't hesitate to book yourself in !

“C2C start point”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 September 2011

person found this review helpful

Nice welcome and helpful encouragement and advice for our very wet journey ahead. Rooms were comfortable, clean and warm and there was secure space to store the bikes.

Breakfast was a good size full english and plenty of cereals and coffee.

Whitehaven town centre and harbour is a five minute walk a bit tricky for food out of season after 8pm but the guest house owners have plenty of impartial advice.

All in all a good start point - nice people.

Room Tip: Twin room was a good size with en suite.

“Friendly & helpful B&B”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 September 2011

people found this review helpful

We stayed here at the end of biking the Reviers Route. The owners were very helpful and friendly, a warm welcome after a wet and windy ride! They allowed us to carry out bikes through the B&B out to the back garden, where they then moved them for us into a lockable shed for the night. The rooms were very comfy, with great showers with enough hot water to last for hours if we wanted! They phoned for a taxi for us, so we could go into town to have a celebratory curry - the details of which were in our rooms, but not just information about local restaurants, it was information about places they had eaten at and would go back to.
The breakfast was great - a selection of cereals, homemade bread for toast with homemade marmalade, homemade fruit salad, full english.
There was a lounge for guests to use, complete with a bar although I don't know what the prices were like as we didn't use it.
The place had a very welcoming feel, with lots of personal photos and pictures around - so much more personal than a larger hotel.
We would definitely stay there again if we're ever in Whitehaven again.

We stopped here while cycling the Hadrian's wall cycle route. This is one of he best B&B's around. Very welcoming and the food is of the highest quality. We will be back for the C2C next time.
