Best Bed & Breakfast Ever!…read more From the spacious bedroom and comfortable beds to the super large and soft towels in the bathroom (with perfectly sized bath/shower) and the thoughtful choice of lotions and other bathroom supplies, the room itself was without fault. As for the food - quite excellent - we had a delicious cream tea on arrival and a good choice of breakfast options from which we both chose the Full English. The success of this deceptively simple dish (sausage, bacon, eggs, mushrooms and tomato) is the ingredients. These were very good. We were starting out on the Hadrian's Walk trail so each ordered a packed lunch - and again The Wallsend Guest House gave a stand out performance - making us a sandwich to order and then pointing us to a wide range of fruits and snacks so we could choose what to include. For evening meal, the King's Arms Inn is very good. Thank you to the wonderful staff of the Wallsend B&B. Our only regret is that we stayed with you first, at the start our week walking the Wall, as we've compared all other B&Bs to you and none have come close.

While walking through the town I saw this new place, well it was new to me having only opened last August. For a newish sort of place I sure got that old school feel from everything, from the homemade cake display to the staff uniform was old school, a little like the Waverly tearooms. The tables where pre set for diners to sit at that consisted of vintage cutlery to the old 1930's paragon tea set. Staff where great & welcoming I would definitely be be back & highly recommend this tearoom

We stopped at the tea room after a visit to Lanercost Priory for a cup of tea and hot chocolate…read more The tea room itself was pleasant and bright but a bit barren. It reminded me very much of a US church's multipurpose room - something that seemed like it could be cleared at any time for another function or purpose. It seemed to lack coziness. My hot chocolate, however, was lovely, and it really hit the spot after a long day on the Wall. Though we did not eat at the tea room, I gladly would have done so (and there are few other restaurants nearby, save for a 20-minute drive to Brampton). The specials listed on a chalkboard sounded quite nice. As another reviewer mentioned, when you arrive at the tea room you order and pay at a counter on the far-side of the cafe. A waitress will bring your drinks/food to you at a table of your choosing when it is ready. The restaurant was previously open for dinner, but I see on their web site that they have reverted to daytime hours only due to unforeseeable operational issues. What a shame, as Brampton is really about a 20-minute drive and there are few other restaurants directly in the area for dinner.

I visited your so called dog friendly cafe today. It was very disappointing. I have visited many…read moreother dog friendly cafes in the area and I must say this made me feel like an outcast. The chairs were plastic foldable chairs a cushion would have been nice. Most cafes at least give dog biscuits for the canine friends. All the water bowls outside and in were empty. As for the human food that was also disappointing when the macaroni cheese that sounded so nice on the menu arrived it was cold tasteless and looked as though it had come out of a tin. If this is the best you can offer both humans and dogs I will not be back and I will be advising our friends of our visit. This is such a shame as it could be so nice.

Just off the big roundabout at the A66 Penrith exit from the M6, the cafe sits above Cranston's Cumbrian Food Hall and it's a fantastic place to stop. The menu is simple, good quality, home-cooked food from local sources. The cafe is a lovely space, large and bright with artwork from local artists on display. The breakfasts are wonderful, they have specials on all day as well as the regular menu, the home baking is amazing and the prices are pretty reasonable. The food hall downstairs is also fantastic - from fresh to frozen, vegetables, meat and fish counters, fresh bread, an amazing deli area and a lovely selection of wine, craft beer and local ciders. This is a travel stopover that will delay you a lot longer than you expected!

I think it will produce 15 good slices. the only down side was that we were shoe-horned in.

The staff are very warm, welcoming and friendly and we would not eat anywhere else in Hawkshead. Having visited on numerous occasions we highly recommend all dishes on the menu and the cakes are just divine and it is almost impossible to walk by the huge cakes calling you in from the window. I find it hard to believe that anyone would be so offensive and post the comments below about such a wonderful little eatery. Lets hope the owners don't take any notice of those types of comments as they are doing an amazing job.

The cafe does great food, meals are reasonable & the cakes are fantastic. Service is good & quick even when busy. Staff always happy. There is a small kiosk on the side if you just want a coffee which has tables to sit at. The view is great on a fine day, you can see the lakes hills & most of the solway firth, on a bad day you just about see your own boots. The road up from the Penrith side is nice & bendy with a few hairpins. The road from the Alston side is fairly straght with curves to excite. The police like these roads also so take care. Well worth a visit if you are in the area even on shanksies pony.
