Crown and Mitre Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Fabulous, well presented hotel in Carlisle. We had a very comfortable stay!"

Midtown Farm Bed & Breakfast

10/10 Excellent

"We had a great stay. Our hosts were fantastic!"

The Roost

10/10 Excellent

"I cannot recommend the roost enough. The cottage is absolutely stunning the location is beautiful and just a short drive from everything. We were left tea, coffee, milk fresh fruit and home made flapjacks which were amazing. The owner couldn’t have done anymore for us she was incredible and we will definitely be going back x highly recommend"

Stonethwaite Barn, Dalston - a luxurious, dog friendly barn

10/10 Excellent

"Outstanding stay at Stonethwaite Barn We had a fantastic week at Stonethwaite Barn, Cardew. The barn itself is absolutely beautiful and finished to an outstanding quality. The beds were extremely comfortable, making for a truly relaxing stay. The location is fabulous, situated just 5 to 10 minutes away from most local amenities while still feeling like a peaceful getaway. Having access to a private garden was brilliant, plus there is an amazing shared garden area available to enjoy as well. It is very dog friendly, though it is worth noting that while the private garden is enclosed, determined or very small dogs might still need a little supervision. A special mention must go to the host, who was incredibly helpful throughout our stay and made us feel like nothing was ever too much trouble. We would recommend Stonethwaite Barn in a heartbeat!"
