Had a very pleasant stay at the Norcroft Guest House. The hotel is clean and comfortable and located in a quiet part of Penrith, just a short walk away from the town centre. The hosts are very friendly and responsive. Great value for money too!

Good private parking. Very helpful staff. A clean spacious room. The room was up two flights of stairs but my case was carried up for me.
Breakfast was lovely and brought up to my room.
A good place to stay along my journey north.

Norcroft Guest House
We had a lovely stay at Norcroft Guest House.
On arrival we where offered Triple chocolate muffins, they where delicious and fresh, we also put our order in for breakfast in the morning.
On the morning a freshly cooked breakfast was brought to our room, could not fault the food or the service.
Mark and Paula where very helpful hosts.

Lovely hotel with welcoming friendly owners
I was given a very warm welcome and offered a homemade cookie ( very delicious). I stayed in.room.8 a single small but more than adequate, everything was provided and the room and bathroom.were spotlessly clean. The hotel requires that you pre-order breakfast for delivery at a chosen time slot, the next morning it arrived bang on time and was lovely and hot with everything you could expect. Thanks for a great stay

Nice one night stay
Was staying over after hiking Helvellyn a 2”30 minute drive away from Penrith. Warm welcome from the hosts Mark & Paula who even gave me a home baked cookie on arrival which was a nice touch. I stayed in a basic single room which was perfect. Pre-ordered breakfast for a set time which was delivered to my room on time and was delicious. Will definitely stay here again when I return to the Lake District.
