The B&B is run by a warm and welcoming couple, Mary and Phillip, who made us feel at home during our stay. The breakfast options were delightful, particularly the traditional cooked breakfasts. However, the place showed signs of needing updates, and the hard beds made for a less than restful night. Overall, it's a charming spot near Windermere but has a few quirks that could be improved.

Our stay was filled with mixed experiences.

I had a mixed experience during my stay at the hotel. While the breakfast was genuinely delightful with fresh homemade jams, the service left a lot to be desired, especially when it came to accommodating special needs. The location was convenient, making it easy to explore the area, but my room placement wasn't ideal for my mobility issues. Overall, there were both high points and low points throughout my visit.
