REOPENING FROM 15th AUGUST - NEW CONCEPT FOR CHALLENGING TIMES: "THREE-DAY-PLUS" EXCLUSIVE STAYS - THE SOLE USE OF OUR B&B  

With our new concept you can make your reservation in full confidence that we are not only adapting to all Covid-19 health and safety protocols, but also in the knowledge that you alone or you and your family/social bubble has the sole use of our B&B with a view.

You will then have the exclusive use of the guest lounge, reading room and patio in addition to your chosen room when you book a "three-day-plus" stay.

Prices for direct booking start at £330 for three nights incl. our extensive and highly-rated breakfast.

Choose the ensuite room you prefer, give us a call, book and look forward to your break with us.

04. July 2020 - After careful consideration, we have decided to remain temporarily closed until we see the relaxation of travel rules is not going to lead to a further spike in cases of Covid-19. We hope you can understand our decision and be patient a little while longer.
We look forward to welcoming guests in the future as soon as it is safe to do so.

Please follow health advice and stay safe

January 2020 - Closure due to escape of water.

Unforrtunately we have had to close to carry out repairs to our kitchen after a flood due to a leak on New Year's Day. We sincerely apologize to the guests whose bookings we have had to cancel and also to those who have rung and wanted to stay with us at the beginning of this year. We are working flat out and are in cooperation with our insurers to get things sorted and carry out all the necessary work to our usual high standards. We hope we may be able to re-open sooner than later and shall inform you via the website or personally..

Afternoon and Evening Treats from May 2019

We are delighted to announce that by special request of a number of our guests we are now offering a range of afternoon and evening treats:

Cream Teas with homebaked scones, fresh whipped cream and Claire's delicious handmade strawberry jam served with a selection of artisan teas in an individual teapot or a cafetière of freshly ground coffee, served with warm or cold milk. The scones are home-baked with Doves Farm organic flour,

For the evenings we are now offering cheese or charcuterie platters for two (or one) for you to enjoy with your own wine or beer, which you can store in your own individual fridge here in Westwood. We are also happy to provide the appropriate glasses to go with the drink of your choice or make you a cup of tea to go with your meal.

Enjoy an afternoon or evening treat in the garden or on the decking, as well as in the dining room, with delicious food and our wonderful view!

Beautifully decorated tables with twinkling lights - just being able to take part in this event in our first year as a B&B was an honour in itself ! Then we had the pleasure of sharing a table with the lovely people from the Wedding Venue " Broadoaks Country House" - Winners of their event, by the way, - and Smooth Radio Lake District, and, to top it all, it just happened to be Peter's birthday as well!  For us to come second in the whole of Cumbria in the B&B of the Year Award is not anything we would have dreamed of when we opened our doors at the end of August last year. We are so grateful to the visitor who nominated and thus encouraged us to even apply - thank you unknown visitor!  We are also grateful to CT and the Sponsors (The Cumberland) for making such an event possible and creating such a tremendous evening and, of course, we have already congratulated Raise View from Grasmere on winning and we wish them all the luck in the world when they go on to represent this wonderful county of Cumbria in the national competition next year.
