Everything was good, a Nice walk into Keswick (10mins) not far from cat bells.

Super friendly, and dog friendly even though we didn’t have a dog.

The drive up to the parking area was a little narrow as our car is really wide, but that was the only vaguely negative comment.

The breakfast was fantastic and on the first day the weather was nice so we ate in the garden, which was absolutely stunning. It was great to have access to the car park and they have secure bike storage, which we may use next time. Portinscale also seemed a lovely place with good bus links, a pub and cafe as well as really close to Keswick.

This is a lovely place to stay. The owners Caroline and Clive cannot do enough to make your stay a pleasant and interesting one. The artwork and gardens are delightful as are their two Burmese cats!

Loved this B&B. The little touches make a difference. Caroline and Clive were great hosts. The food was fantastic, as was the hospitality. The bed was super comfy. Breakfast was great, being able to talk around the table with other guests. We met some lovely people.

There is a flight of stairs. Therefore, do not take a bid and heavy suitcase!

The hosts were friendly & helpful and had a personal touch that advanced the experience! The house, room and facilities were fantastic. Most beautiful english country garden!

My husband and I stayed at The Mount for 3 nights and couldn't be happier! Clive and Caroline were very friendly and accommodating. The B&B was clean, in a wonderful location, and incredibly dog friendly. Breakfast (especially the bacon) was superb. We will be back and suggesting to anyone we know travelling in the area.

Nothing at all.

It was such a lovely stay. I couldn’t fault it whatsoever! The location is perfect, just a little walk away into Keswick. The hosts were lovely, especially their Full English breakfasts. The bed was comfortable too. We will definitely be booking again.

There was nothing to not like

Everything! It was in a very quiet little village only a mile from Keswick. The room was spotless and the bed was so comfortable, the bathroom had the best shower I’ve ever had with everything you needed for a fantastic stay. The breakfasts were amazing and the communal setting allowed us all swap stories and chat about different places/walks to do. Will definitely be back.

Caroline and Clive are excellent hosts and were really friendly. They gave us some good recommendations for hikes and restaurants. The locally sourced breakfast was one of the best we've ever had and it was really nice sitting around the table with other guests. The location of the B&B is also great and within walking distance from Keswick. We will definitely stay here again.

I stayed in the hut in the garden and it was ideal as walking the Cumbria Way. The hut was cosy, comfortable and clean. The location was also excellent close to lovely pub for food. The owners were brilliant, friendly and interesting and the breakfast was superb, can’t fault the place!

Portinscale was the perfect location for me, with grand hikes and quiet feel, close to cute Keswick. The stay was so lovely and homey and the views were amazing, plus the garden was so beautiful. Knowing what I know now, I wish I would have stayed my whole Lake District holiday here and just commuted to the other places down south I wanted to go instead of staying in the south.

Lack of desk space to work in the bedroom.

Only one night en route between the south of England and Scotland, but a very good experience! The B&B was very comfortable, well presented and clean. The owners very friendly and accommodating. The breakfast delicious and tailored to individual taste, with the chance to meet other guests around the breakfast table. Parking available to the rear of the property. Walking distance to Keswick, although we did not have the chance to try.

The property is in a great location for access to many walks and Derwent Water. It is about a mile from Keswick which is an easy walk or drive. Caroline & Clive were very attentive hosts. Excellent breakfast, lovely tea & cakes. They are very knowledgeable about the area and happy to help & advise.. Our room was spacious, light and very clean.
