Rated 9.4 out of 10 by 160 guests who stayed here.
Wonderful garden and wildlife.
Very clean and lovely to have fresh milk available.
The approach road is very narrow and pot holed, so makes for a challenging ride in a low car!
Breakfast was excellent.
The place was friendly, relaxed and quiet. The access road was a bit narrow but I guess that's a fair price to pay for being off the beaten track and in amongst the hills.
Nothing to mention
excellent breakfast
Hospital hosts,friendly and informative. Excellent location,the views around are great to wake up to. Quite a central starting point for covering most of Eskdale. We would recommend 100%
Home away from home
Nothing it was amazing
LIKED... The peace and quiet, the views, accommodating owner, local advice, lovely breakfast.
Room 5 was a little low in one area, bumped my head on the beam a few times. But I'm over 6 foot!!

The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.
Put your dates in above and book online, or call (888) 789-8585 and we'll do it for you — including things a booking form can't handle, like a block of rooms, a monthly rate or an invoice for your employer.

Nothing to do with the booking above. The same market, priced the same way, for if this one is not it.
