Nice room, quite area. Swimming pool could do with draining and jet washing as the stains are abit of putting. Didnt smell or feel like chlorine levels are kept correctly, especially when its used for childrens classes and we all know what children do in the pool. Sauna was ok, gap in door not fully sealed shut. Probably wouldnt use facilites again but would stay again as the room and breakfast was lovley. Nice priced mini bar open up to all guest with alot of trust put into you as the quest to help yourself and write down what you take. Overall good stay if your going to have a pool and sauna to use you may be dissappointed as of right now. Some easy changes and maintaning could change that.

Cannot fault our recent stay, Property is very clean and tidy, room recently refurbished to a standard above most of the premium hotels I have visited .Owners very friendly and welcoming, nothing too much trouble, breakfast was cooked fresh with a very good range of options.Pool complex was also clean tidy and very well maintained, water temperature was very comfortable, no shock to the system as you first emerge.Location of property seems a bit out of town, but in reality is only 5 min drive to harbour area or £5-7 taxi.Wifi is quick and free, streamed TV worked fine. There is a Pub and local shop within 100yds of propery but did not visit on this ocassion.No need as there is a honesty bar stocked with all the drinks and snacks you could need at very resonable prices.

Room is very basic. Breakfast is basic. Nice chef though, came specially to apologise for the limited options. In general the B&B is overrated extremely overpriced. Not happy at all that I booked it

Weekend away for Leyland National 51 Festival
Really lovely clean and tidy place, love the honesty bar, dog friendly which was great, no fuss style and presentation. Some open space around the corner so great for the dog to have early morning exercise. It's at the top of a big hill, so be prepared for that before getting into the centre of Whitehaven. Would highly recommend.

Nice cosy room with en-suite. In the middle of nowhere, not really much to do. Breakfast was ok, however, we didn’t get offered tea or coffee.

Great friendly welcome. They were understanding that we may have arrived late. We got an upgrade on the room which was nice of them too. Nice cosy atmosphere. Having a pool is a definite plus.
Great views from all around the building given the elevation and windows across the bay and hills.
Breakfast was fantastic. Compliments to the chef.
Great value for money.

This is a fab little bed and breakfast. Dog friendly, family friendly, business trip friendly.
Honesty bar on site with a selection of alcholic and non alcoholic drinks and snacks. Pub in walking distance.
Breakfast was very good.
Shame we couldnt have used the swimming facilities, but this was due to our circumstances not the facilities themselves. View from my room was lovely both day and night.
