Bank House is just the best place to stay for B & B. Sarah and Dean couldn't be more welcoming and helpful.The bedrooms are so clean and comfortable and the beds are just made for a good night's sleep. The ensuite was also very clean and warm with lovely toiletries. Breakfast was out of this world with fresh fruit salad, an amazing choice of cereals and Dean's fabulous cooked feast to follow. If you have room then there is fresh toast with home made bread and preserves. Visiting a friend during our stay in Penrith, I fell and broke my ankle. Dean waited up until 3am that morning when I came back from hospital to help get me up to our room and he was up at dawn a few hours later with hot toast and coffee and fresh muffins to take with us on our return visit to Carlisle Hospital. This is 5* gold B&B with knobs on!
