Positive: A cosy clean comfortable room with an enormous bed and a very nice shower The owner was very kind and helpful On a working sheep farm with a great view
Negative: We loved seeing the dogs around but if you don’t like dogs then you may not be so happy and although we were fine with steps and stairs the room we stayed in Sheepfold would not be suitable if you couldn’t walk up stairs
Summary: Great stay, we would return

Positive: Deborah and her partner are quite possibly the nicest, friendliest, chilled out, accommodating and thoughtful hosts we have ever encountered. The room was outstanding; beautiful, cottage core with modern amenities (and a coffee machine that went down well with my fiancé!). Very clean, lovely little touches and very comfy bed and pillows. We stayed for 2 nights and our room was cleaned/made up after night 1 which we weren't expecting from a B&B, water milk biscuits coffee - all topped up. We got engaged on the first night and when we came home from our walks on day 2, there was prosecco and champagne flutes awaiting us. 5 beautiful and friendly dogs to greet you sometimes. Easy check in. Easy to find. Exceptionally beautiful views and close to great hiking spots, good places to eat. We will absolutely stay here again when we next come to the Lakes. Faultless.

Reviewer Type: Extended Group
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Very nice spacious room, lovingly decorated. Generous breakfast hamper with fresh bread and pastries as well as cereals, fruit packs, jam, milk etc. Tea, coffee maker and fridge in the room. Comfy large bed. Good starting point for hikes, but also a bus stop outside the door for easy access to Keswick and other areas. Easy self-check-in.
Negative: We did not really meet our hosts, so we cannot comment on them. Slight damper to our stay: we asked for our room to be made up as a twin room, but the bed was a king with one large duvet. We slept really well anyway. On booking.com the rooms aren't described quite well, so we ended up in a basement room with a limited view. This quite disappointed us, as the reviews of the view were the reason why we booked Highside Farm. Info on how and where to park would be appreciated, as we were a bit lost when we arrived.
Summary: Nice guest house on a farm surrounded by nature, double-check if you book a room with a view though!
