Vickie was very warm and welcoming. The room is lovely, a nice touch to have a chocolate on your pilow. The standout was the breakfast, one of the best ive had in a b&b.

A fabulous stay. Easy walk into the centre of town. Host was really helpful and recommended an excellent restaurant for dinner. Room was beautiful with the added bonus of robes. Breakfast was amazing. Excellent value for money. Cannot recommend highly enough.

Perfect stay
The host was really helpful and accommodating. The mattress was not very comfortable but overall everything was perfect. The property was walking distance to all the restaurants and pubs too.

Good communication prior to arrival as we were arriving outside normal check-in hours. Clean and comfortable facilities gave us a great night's sleep. Very good breakfast served by a host who was genuinely friendly and welcoming. Only there for one night as on our way elsewhere but definitely a place to use if staying in Penrith.

Lovely guesthouse!
Room was immaculate and spacious. I was worried about parking but it wasn’t a problem as I was able to get a space outside the front, and the back if I wanted. If you need to check in later than 8/9pm it isn’t a problem; just give them a call and they’ll arrange it with you. Breakfast was decent too! The only negative (a very minor point) is that the shower head appeared to have brewer’s droop! Other than that it was fabulous. I would definitely stay again.

A PENRITH GEM
Just spent a great couple of days in Penrith staying at Abbey House. This fabulous b&b is right in the heart of Penrith so you can park up and easily walk everywhere. Vicki, the owner, is so welcoming with lots of tips on local restaurants etc. The house is immaculate, I'm a clean freak and the place was absolutely spotless. We stayed in room 4 which was very spacious with a lovely ensuite and a very comfy bed. Breakfast is served in the attractive dining room with a good selection of fruit & cereals and a variety of cooked options. Thanks for a wonderful stay, we will definitely be back.
