Beautiful place and great staff.

Beautiful and interesting place. We had the delux room. Four poster bed, thst was possible the most comfortable ive stayed on. Breakfast was fantastic, all of it was delicious, but the black pudding was wow, amazing. The premises are decorated beautifully and in character with the building. Hazel snd her husband (very remiss of me but i didnt get his name) are lovely, and very welcoming. I can't rate this place highly enough. We will definitely be back, and for a couple of days at least next time.

Recommended guest house

A lovely, secluded, historic property in beautiful gardens. Very good choice of well cooked breakfasts. Hazel, the owner, was very friendly and helpful. The room was comfortable and very clean. The property is in a village which is well placed for local beauty spots and attractions. There is a village pub which has good food and is an easy stroll from the property.

A great place in Greystoke

Such an amazing property. On the grounds of Greystoke Castle. Built in the 1840's and restored to be historically accurate. Any renovations overseen by a local group. The hostess is friendly, accommodating and shared so much information about the property and painstaking restoration. My wife said "This is the best breakfast we have had." And my wife loves a good breakfast. A great place to end our visit to the Lake District.

Stafford House is a little gem of a find located just North-East of the Lake District area. The setting of this lovely B&B is placed in stunning surrounding gardens which is immaculately maintained by the proprietors. We were warmly greeted by Ian, who was gardening when we arrived, but stopped to make sure we were in the right place. Don’t be too concerned if are you a stranger to the area, the wealth of local knowledge provided by Hazel & Ian can provide you with ideas and locations to spend away the day. They also provided us with a little travel plan that listed all the POI with sat nav postcodes. Our hosts Hazel and Ian are terrific people. Both knew just how much and when to attend or leave us to our devices. We stayed in the main house, but there are self-catering lodges available. The decor and attention to detail in the rooms are second to none and very, very comfortable. The rooms are well stocked with tea/coffee facilities and the bathroom with all manners of toiletries. There was a wide choice available for breakfast with fresh and locally sourced produce. Simple system, tick what you would like off the breakfast sheet the night before and it was beautifully presented the following morning. I had the salmon and scrambled eggs, which was so nice I had it again the following day and, on both mornings, looked and tasted great. Our stay here has encouraged us to make a point of visiting the Lake District more often.
