In the pretty Cumbrian market town of Penrith, Abbey House B & B provides attractive accommodation within half a mile of the train station, town centre and Penrith Castle. En suite rooms have free Wi-Fi and free parking.

Abbey House is an outstanding place to stay. Vickie was so welcoming and had thought of everything to make our stay as comfortable as possible even to having a chocolate and fluffy robes. It felt very luxurious. The room and bathroom was spacious with a huge comfy bed. The breakfast was delicious. I can't praise our stay enough.

This country guest house is situated just 3 kilometres (2 miles) from junction 40 of the M6/A66, offering you a small, luxurious and homely alternative to regular travel accommodation.

Some hotels and guest houses can be very impersonal and soulless, treating each guest as little more than a name or number. At The White House Guest House, we are very different, focusing our efforts on providing a personal and unique service, where all our guests are treated as individuals.

Lovely stay!!! Owner was the kindest person, who recommended me great trips around and was extremely nice to my dog. Breakfast was perfect, full English with fresh fruit, delicious porridge and many dog treats. Would be back anytime!

    The hut was gorgeous, cosy and spotless when we arrived. A bottle of Prosecco was left in the fridge for us which was a lovely touch. The views were gorgeous and we had everything we needed within the hut for a couple of nights stay.

    The room was beautiful, very clean and lovely decor. The stairs were very quirky but just added to the charm. The staff were excellent, very warm and professional, especially the lovely lady at breakfast and Collette at check in. The communication prior to our stay was excellent, they made us aware of a special dinner menu which was so lovely. The location was stunning and only a 5 min drive from penrith itself.

    Good value. A nice pub with plenty of character and charm. Food was good, dinner and breakfast. Dog friendly. Room and en suite was a little small, but we knew it wasn’t going to be big to be fair and it was well designed and pretty. Great tea/coffee in room and everything was very clean.
