The nicest B&B we have stayed in.
Incredibly clean and tastefully furnished. Very comfortable beds with crisp cotton bedding. Everything , including the lovely garden is so well- cared for.
Everything we could need or want had been thought about- home-made biscuits, complimentary gin on arrival, bath robes. Excellent breakfast and very friendly hosts who couldn’t do enough to make our stay such a pleasure. Thank you.

Lake district weekend
Lakeview is a well run and friendly guesthouse run by Catherine. The room was spotless clean, all facilities worked ok, such as shower and bath,etc. Parking was on the premises and free but there was ample street parking as well. The area is quiet peaceful and very scenic. We recommend this place to you if you are looking for a traditionally run guesthouse with a homely feel. The breakfast menu was varied, wholesome and excellent quality. We would definitely stay again.

The Lake View is a charming house located in a quiet neighborhood with a beautiful walking path to the town center. My husband Min and I stayed at the property for 5 nights in this trip and enjoyed the stay very much. The owner Catherine and Stuart created a warm welcome and comfortable living environment for guests. The delicious breakfast with various choices is one of the highlights. If we visit the Lake District again in future, the Lake View will definitely be our “home” again.

Absolutely spot on from start to finish
Warmly welcomed on arrival and introduced to the house, taken into each room and finally to our room, which was exceptional as was the rest of the house.
Stuart and Catherine were fantastic hosts and really made us feel at home, in their home. They took the time to talk to us and explain to us what was best to try in the area, food, travel, walks, etc.
The food was exceptionally good, the quality of the produce was first rate as was the preparation and presentation.
Absolutely spot on from start to finish, many thanks to you both.

Wonderful stay with wonderful hosts
We've just returned from a three night stay at the Lake View Guest House and miss it already. Stuart and Catherine were warm hosts and attentive to our every need, from a cup of tea and cake at check in, to the homemade gin and biscuits in the room, to the fantastic breakfast. They also provided great advice on where to eat and what to do in the surrounding area.The view from the room was spectacular. We can't wait to return!

We loved our stay! The home is a beautiful example of Arts and Crafts style. The garden is exquisite and the breakfast and food delicious, but the charm and hospitality comes most from the gracious and kind hosts! They made us feel like family or cherished friends. We loved our stay and would love to return! Thanks so much for making our stay wonderful!

Exceeds expectations with bathroom to die for.
This is probably one of the top three B&B's we have ever stayed in. The welcome was warm, checkin was flawless and the room exceeded expectations. Hosts were very friendly, helpful and informative and nothing was too much trouble. The little extras like home made biscuits, hot cross buns, damson gin and home made preserves turned a special stay into an extra special stay. Breakfast was plentiful and perfect with a good selection of choice available. Made to feel special as hosts remebered each persons name and were attentive without being overbearing. Having fresh ground coffee and a pot of tea available is a winner. Rooms were spacious, excellently maintained and the bed, duvet and pillows was as comfortable as you would expect from a 5 Star Hotel.

Stewart and Catherine were the consummate hosts. Nothing was too much trouble and there was a genuine keenness to make our stay as memorable as possible. From the friendly welcome on arrival including complimentary coffee with Catherine’s homemade cake to all the other details that made our stay delightful (complimentary homemade biscuits, fresh milk and homemade slow gin in our room, a wonderfully varied and generous tasty breakfast, only three guest rooms so it was never noisy or too busy with people). It’s a 5 minute stroll to Derwent Water lakeside but the property is also ideally situated for quick road access to the wider Lake District. We’ve stayed at many guest houses in the Lakes over the years: this was easily the best experience.

Very comfortable bedroom with fabulous bathroom, lovely toiletries, homemade biscuits and sloe gin. Delicious breakfast. The hosts were very welcoming, gave good advice on local walks and directions into town etc. Just one mile walk into Keswick and private parking a bonus. Will definitely stay here again.

We chose the Lake View as a base for walks in the Keswick area. Everything about our stay there was exceptional. Hosts Stuart and Catherine were welcoming and helpful. Breakfast was amazing. The beds were super comfortable. We made good use of the downstairs lounge as a place to read and consult maps. The property is a pleasant 20 minute walk from the village, and well-served by public transportation. I highly recommend the Lake View.
