Lovely Stay
We had a lovely stay at Hermiston Guest House. The rooms are well appointed, beautifully clean and refreshed on a daily basis. Breakfast is well organised and the service from Phil in particular was a highlight of the stay. Thank you!

Phil and Helen took great care to make the breakfasts fit our needs with lots of choices. Great welcoming and conversation. We enjoyed our two nights. Comfy bed and though the shower knobs took a bit to sort out we enjoyed the shower after long days of touring and walking. Myriad thanks!

Fantastic
Pobyt w Hermiston Guest House był wielką przyjemnością. Nasz pokój był bardzo ładny z widokiem na ogród, co zapewniało nam ciszę i komfort w nocy. Łóżko super wygodne. Właściciel jest fotografem, co dodaje uroku całemu domowi, pełnego pięknych zdjęć, które można też kupić. Na wprost naszego łóżka wisiał piękny obraz-fotografia jeziora Buttermere, za którym tęsknimy. Doceniamy ciasteczka i herbatę w pokoju. Śniadania i pogawędki z gospodarzem, który ma cudowne poczucie humoru były niezwykle miłym akcentem każdego dnia. Mamy nadzieję, że uda nam się wrócić.

Best Guest House in Keswick
Stayed in this fabulous guest house with my husband and father. Everything about it was beautiful! The house is well planned and stocked. The owners, Phil and Helen, are very helpful and knowledgeable. The breakfast was plentiful with good choices. Phil planned out a scenic tour in our car that was excellent for us. The location is perfect for exploring the Lakes and small villages. I got some amazing photos! We highly recommend and would like to stay there again.

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.

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!.

Cracking guest house fab location and hosts
Awesome from the start Met at the door with a coffee and a warm welcome from Phil, Discussed the best ways and tricks of the local area such as parking/places to visit. Breakfast was very tasty full English for me and porridge for the wife both of which were home cooked and fab lots of other choices with a-cracking view of lat rigg. Rooms were comfortable with everything you need including towels and hot drinks in your room. On return form day out infest was given by phil on the day and further advice /maps were given for the following days adventures nothing was too much for the hosts, this was our first one on a guest house the rest have a lot to live up to now. Will be booking a weekend away again
