Just had a really enjoyable stay at The Horse and Farrier in Threlkeld. The staff are excellent and go above and beyond to make your stay memorable. The accomodation was excellent, very clean and tidy with great views. The food for both breakfast and evening meal was truly delicious and the selection of real ales was top notch. Easy to walk into Keswick along the wagonway or get the bus from right outside. Would totally recommend.

Quaint Cottage in The Lakes

Fantastic cottage, just 5 miles from Keswick. Small and quaint, everything you need for a week away. Kitchen well stocked, private outside area to sit and chill of an evening. To big bedrooms, one with an ensuite plus a main bathroom. Real value for money!! I would strongly recommend and stay!

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Place was warm and parking good. However would not stay again. No wifi, our room was too far away from the booster, however 3 ppl gave me a different reason why it wasn’t working which were all in conflict. Many dishes were dirty, there was still rubbish left under the sink previous occupants face cloths left in the freezer and no toiletries. Very disappointing.

Perfect Lake District Stopover

Cosy pub/ restaurant/ hotel in a stunning Lake District spot. Sunday lunch was extremely tasty, served by very attentive staff. Our room, the Blencathra suite, was a perfect fit for our family. Spotlessly clean, super comfortable bed, which made for great nights sleep.

Had such a lovely stay in The Horse & Farrier Inn. Rooms were small but clean and had all the facilites needed. Food at both dinner and breakfast was delicious. Location is great, only a short drive into Keswick, with beautiful views of the mountains. Staff were really friendly and helpful. Will definitely return.
