Dunmail house is a 5 star B&B situated on the A591, just outside of Grasmere village…read more It has 4 rooms and is run by a warm and friendly couple. The rooms are tastefully decorated and has all the comforts you're likely to need. There is a TV/DVD in the room (plus the ability to hire out DVD's from an extensive list - free of charge!), tea/coffee making facilities and the ensuite shower is to a high standard. The shared lounge is comfortable and holds plenty of information regarding local things to see and do as well as local places to eat. Their breakfast range is wonderful and really did set us up for the day! They cater for special diets (i.e. Vegetarian) and are flexible with the breakfast choices. The B&B may be on a main road, but their triple glazing in the rooms mean you hear very little car noise. the views from the front and back are stunning. This was my first visit to the Lake District and Dunmail House and our stay there added to a wonderful experience. They are very walker friendly and you can access some wonderful walks from there. Ambleside, Keswick, Windermere, Coniston and Grizedale forest are all short drives away. Highly Recommended!

Grasmere, one of the popular tourist destinations of the famed Lake District in the UK. Chestnut…read moreVilla is a relatively new B&B serving the Coast to Coast walkers passing by here less than a half mile up the road, making it one of the most convenient stays for those folks with tired feet (ie., me) putting in the long miles on this iconic and famed walk. First off, beautiful facility, new, modern, yet tastefully fits into the neighborhood and expertly run by a young gentleman whose name I'm sad to say I didn't write down. Great wireless connection, comfortable lounging area. Here's the deal: you arrive at these places after walking for 6-8 hours so someone that says, "Here, your shoes look wet, let me put them in the back yard in direct sun so they dry out. I'll watch for rain (which it does frequently) and if it threatens I'll bring them in." Wow... score. Killer traditional English breakfast, a great packed lunch, friendly and professional staff. These are things you don't get in all of these small towns you pass through so a welcome stay. Chesnut Villa should be moving to the top of the list of B&Bs for the tens of thousands of hikers that pass through the city on their way from coast to coast. Not much Yelp activity in Grasmere so let me say it plainly and loudly: this place rocks. If I do this walk again I will specifically request to stay here. That good.

Our bathroom wasn't en-suit but was just a few steps away from the room & was a large spacious room, a bath robe was provided to wear should you get short in the night. My only criticism of this facility was no shower gel/conditioner was provided but a nice pink hand soap was. Full Breakfast was nice & served on burn your hand plates, together with cereal, orange juice & all the toast you could eat. Parking is provided at the front & is just 2 mins from the town centre. Mike & Joan where perfect hosts as where the other staff we came into contact with in this warm & cosy establishment. Price is the same as all the others in street. I would use this place again.

I stayed at this B&B for 4 nights, using it as a base to complete the Hadrian's Wall Path (only…read moreabout 1/4 mile from the trail) and also tour Carlisle and the area. This was one of the most delightful accommodation I had for my entire trip. Yvette and Norman were very welcoming. I was practically made to feel not like a paying guest, but rather as part of their family. Rooms are very reasonably priced, very clean and tidy. Breakfast is included, and includes an assortment of cereal, various fruit, juice, a full English breakfast, with eggs done any way you prefer. Yvette is a chef by training, and this shows with the quality of the cooked food. They have 2 adorable cocker spaniels. When first entering, they will bark. But once you're in, they're the most gentle, loving dogs one can imagine. Their favorite pastime appears to be having a had placed on them for petting. The location of the B&B is perfect. Only a few blocks away from the center of town and the train station, it is located on a quiet side street. There is actually a fair amount to do in Carlisle, most notably the Cathedral, Castle, and the Tullie House Museum, all located within a short walk of Langleigh House. Carlisle also has a nice assortment of good restaurants. I am looking forward to my next visit here.
