Pleasant, comfortable and reasonably priced accomodation close to train station and local buses.
Plenty of eating and drinking options close by. Would definitely consider when staying in The Lakes again.
The place was clean, it was comfortable and warm the kitchen was usable but for the price it's not a b&b just a room to sleep and a kitchen for all to use it's nothing special for the price. In my opinion for what it is it should have been cheaper.
The property is in a wonderful location, but the building is old and the rooms very, very small. You can hear everything going on in the other rooms. Our washroom had a terrible layout and we couldnât access the sink because of a shelf above it. The house is cold and damp with no heating. No hot water in the building except for a heater in the shower that switches between boiling hot or freezing cold. No housekeeping or fresh towels any of the 3 nights we stayed. Other than the great location I cannot recommend this place. Positive factor: washing machine/dryer and communal kitchen are available.
Its all right expensive for what you get, plenty of shops nearby but there is no communication whatsoever. We struggled to get in, family already staying inside didn't respond when we knocked in. Some people have mentioned breakfast but we didn't get communication on that, which was confusing because we were expecting breakfast.
Issue with the TV cutting out. Unsure if the smoke alarm works in room 9 as there was no light on it and no map of escape egress route if stairs not available.
What more could you ask for than a property where the supermarket (and many eateries) are around the corner and the bus stop is opposite the front door. Rayrigg is perfectly located, with a bus every 20 mins to take you to the railway station (about a 10 minute walk) or to other towns in the District. Just note, if you are challenged by directions, Lake Windermere is in an area called Bowness, and about a 45 minute walk to Ellerthwaite Square. I had the top room, so plenty of stairs to climb, but the view was lovely and the room was extremely comfortable.
The was extremely small, it hadnât been decorated in a long time and was very old the heating didnât work, the room was nothing like the pictures on the site, the bathroom was so small you you had to turn sideways to get between the shower and toilet
Nice place to stay although found it difficult to locate using sat nav we had room 8 which is a lovely room located at the rear side of main building so if its raining you will get wet going to breakfast otherwise nice room although did smell a little musty
Property was clean, bathroom was too small. They allowed us luggage drop which was very helpful for us. The bus and railway station are at walkable distance. Free hot breakfast was good, will have to pay for kids breakfast. Overall we enjoyed our stay and would visit again.
