4/10 Fair

This is a review for the Sally Cottage, which is attached to the Salutation Inn… If you’re looking for a place to simply rest your head after hiking all day, this cottage might be OK. If like us, you’re a family that needs a base for rainy days then I’m afraid I can’t recommend it. The upstairs is spacious and in OK condition, but the downstairs area is cold and tatty. When we arrived (mid afternoon) the cottage was being cleaned and the back door was standing open. It was a cold day, so by the time we checked in at 4pm the downstairs room was freezing - with none of the plug-in heaters turned on. There’s no welcome pack/folder to provide any info and we quickly came to realise that the “free wifi” advertised on here is actually only available in the pub - not the cottage, which is quite misleading. There was also no sign of a remote for the lounge TV. In the kitchen, all the pots had been put back in the cupboards wet, but there weren’t any tea towels or even kitchen roll to dry everything off. The only thing of that nature was a blue paper roll under the sink, so I had to call at the pub and request towels. All in all, it was a pretty miserable stay and we left a day early after my 4 year old complained of being cold. I did flag the issues when checking out and was just told they would make a note. Not sure what good that is to us but hey ho. Pub food at the Salutation Inn was good and I would consider staying there, but I won’t be returning to the cottage.

Beautiful room

The Horse and Farrier is a great old building with lots of character. The weather was poor when we arrived so couldn’t really see the views unfortunately. Our room, which I believe has been newly renovated was gorgeous. Really tastefully decorated to compliment the original features like the wood beams. The bathroom had a stunning freestanding claw foot bath. A special mention to Keith who is super attentive and professional to customers. Would recommend the Horse and Farrier.

8/10 Very good

Perfectly adequate

The location was great and can’t fault that. Reviews gave a very different impression, the accommodation was certainly adequate but there was a window pane missing and boarded up in the bedroom, the dishes needed a wash and the sofa and bed weren’t comfortable (sorry). It served as a great base to explore, and the space upstairs was fantastic but on rainy days found it a bit tricky and the wifi didn’t work. Could get better signal in bedroom upstairs and the property was also warm. A great stay for the money, but I wouldn’t stay here thinking it’s 10/10

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.

A gem for an overnight stay

A very friendly and helpful Landlord and Landlady who made us feel very welcome. The twin room was relatively small but perfectly adequate for an overnight stay. The bath towels are outstanding in size and fluffiness!! The breakfast was very good in deed. Overall - excellent value for money. Highly recommended for an overnight stay with a hearty home cooked breakfast.

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.

Lovely inn dating back to 1688. Food was delicious and the rooms were cosy. For those who are on the taller side, it's worth noting that as part of the charm of a building built in the 1600's, you will find yourself having to duck underneath the doorframes!

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!

Heads up on the damp

Sadly they are still to refurbish some of the bedrooms, the room I had had damp everywhere, patches of plaster off the wall. Had I know I would not have booked that place, when i complained they apologised but that was it, marred my stay with them definately.

A lovely stay

We had an amazing time. The food amazing in a gorgeous pub. The atmosphere and hospitality was fantastic everyone made us feel welcome very friendly especially the lovely Keith, what a legend! Loved listening to the stories & the history of the building he was brilliant! We paid £132 a night (Tuesday( for our room, there was a few minor problems, especially the volume of the music that we could hear while in our room played in the bar & we did also wonder if it was actually a Superior room, (room 5). We would definitely stay again but request a different room.
