Bank House B and B

Stayed in room 2 (x2 single beds + ensuite) which was spacious and had options on bed types: firm or soft. The grounds the B&B sits on are lovely. Deano was very friendly and helpful. Food: had the halloumi breakfast and it was amazing!! Gutted I didn't get to try more of the food on offer. Really enjoyed my stay and will be back. Thanks a bunch!

Enjoyed our 1 night stay. Hosts were friendly, helpful and nothing was too much trouble. A couple of things did affect our rating and for my husband to comment that things were a little less clean in the room than they should be was a surprise! The bed was comfortable and we slept well. Great breakfast and loved the choice of local produce. The accommodation is set on a steep hill so not ideal for those less mobile, unless you get a taxi or use your own car. The views are lovely, and the garden area is beautiful.

Clean, comfortable and quiet B&B in a lovely period property. The room was beautifully appointed, with plenty of fluffy towels and a bathrobe, the breakfast room has a wonderful view over a well kept garden to the hills in the distance and the owners were very welcoming and helpful. Would definitely recommend for a peaceful nights rest.

Lovely BnB, super comfy beds and very clean . Fab breakfast with terrific selection to pre order.Very friendly hosts. Lovely garden to look around if you have time.Only minus is that it’s a little out of town at top of hill.

Lovely house run by Dino and his wife. Stunning gardens, great bedrooms and a breakfast to die for, especially the combination of porridge or fruit compote followed by one of the best English breakfasts I’ve ever had. Highly recommended and couldn’t fault a thing!

We stayed here in the king room with shower. Beautiful room - couldn't fault. Comfiest bed I have been in. Plenty room in bathroom. View from the window across Penrith and beyond. Good choice at breakfast and plenty to set you up for the day. Decide evening before what you want. Best porridge I have ever tasted - local porridge oats along with the excellent cooking of them made all the difference, full cooked breakfast is delicious and again local produce used. Hosts were so friendly and welcoming. All in all a delightful place to stay - so glad we found this gem. Would not hesitate to come back again and again.

My husband and I recently stayed at Bank House in the room with an ensuite bath - a beautiful room. Our hosts were welcoming and helpful. Breakfast was outstanding with locally sourced produce. We are non-drivers and found Penrith a good base from which to explore the area. There are regular trains and bus services seemed good, including a service to Pooley Bridge, from where we were able to travel by steamer around Ullswater Lake. Penrith has some great independent shops and we enjoyed a drink in the Fell Bar (which has received CAMRA awards). We can highly recommend Bank House.

Bed and breakfast done properly! I couldn't praise Bank House b&b enough. A truly beautiful house, with gorgeous garden, set on a quiet road in Penrith, just a few minutes walk from the centre. We stayed in the king sized room which boasts a magnificent hand painted floral mural behind the king sized four poster bed. We were very comfortable and I personally loved that there was a hot water bottle (just in case). Fantastic friendly, helpful hosts who are a joy to speak with. And the breakfast!! Everything locally sourced and/or produced, it was absolutely delicious and we didn't need to eat for the rest of the day haha. The Bank House b&b is a real gem and a must stay if you're in Penrith.

I spent two excellent nights at Bank house whilst visiting different parts of Cumbria. The facilities were excellent. My room was very comfortable and the breakfast included everything you might need.
