The breakfast came hot, well cooked and plentiful. The view over Skiddaw was beautiful. The B&B was in an excellent location, with easy access to all the Lakes and cumbrian coast. Easy access to and from the main routes.

When we stayed at Hermiston, we were made to feel very welcome. The room was immaculate and there was also a very comfortable and cosy lounge for guests to sit in as well as a garden if desired. Breakfast was cooked to order and quality and presentation was excellent.

We had a great experience staying at Hermiston Guest House. Phil and Helen are excellent hosts and made us feel very welcome and comfortable. The bed in the room “Whinlatter” is huge and comfy, and the bathroom was clean and modern. Breakfast was cooked to order and tasty. Couldn’t ask for more.

Excellent information prior to our trip, a warm welcome on arrival with tea and short bread (every day!), lovely room, great breakfasts. Phil and Helen are great hosts. The location is excellent including 3 pubs / restaurants in the village for dinner, good access to the mountains, Keswick etc. Overall an excellent stay - we will certainly use Hermiston Guest House again - well done Phil and Helen!.
