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.

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!

We thought the hosts were really lovely and the location of the guesthouse was ideal for us for walking. There are two pubs within walking distance which serve fantastic food: Coledale inn and Royal Oak. However, we had a downstairs room and seemed to have been really unlucky with the guests upstairs who woke us up every hour during the night. Thankfully, we were only staying a couple of nights as we were absolutely exhausted by the end. Would recommend a stay, just maybe ask for an upstairs room.

Great place to stay, lovely hosts.
The hosts Phil and Helen were exceptionally welcoming and friendly. They made us feel like we were at home and were very approachable. The house was very clean and tidy, and the breakfast was cooked very well. We might see you guys again in the future. Thank you.

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.
