A wonderfully warm and welcoming place to stay
Link House is a welcoming beautifully located place to stay. Peter and Katie have created a warm and attentive atmosphere. They have an eye for detail and excel in hosting. The whole house was wonderfully clean, tastefully decorated and comfy. Breakfasts were lovely too! We definitely recommend a stay at Link House if heading to the Keswick area.

Lovely place to stay
We had a fantastic 2 night stay here. The couple who own it are lovely and very friendly. The room was a good size, clean, bright & airy and we had a beautiful view looking out towards the mountains. Breakfast was amazing. Nothing was too much trouble for this couple.

Our visit was due to local family illness! However, our initial reception was most friendly and most informative! Our room was excellent and our breakfast superb! A well run establishment that is a credit to Peter and Katie. Thank you both! P&P M!

Pete and Katie are really nice. They will help with ideas on what to do and how to get to places. They make the place really homely and made me feel very welcome when I arrived. The room was really clean and the area really beautiful and quiet. Very relaxing. Thanks Katie and Pete

Es war ein toller Aufenthalt bei Katie und Pete. Sie sind zwei unglaublich nette und fürsorgliche Menschen, bei denen man sich nur wohl fühlen kann. Mein Zimmer war auch sehr schön und gemütlich. Jeden Abend hat man seine Frühstückswünsche für den nächsten Tag angegeben und seinen Wunschzeitraum, damit nicht alle Gäste auf einmal das Frühstückszimmer stürmen. Das Frühstück selbst war immer sehr lecker und liebevoll zubereitet. In einem Nebenraum gab es sehr viele Bücher zur Auswahl. Und die Gegend ist ja sowieso traumhaft. Pete konnte sehr gute Empfehlungen für Unternehmungen aussprechen. Ich kann dieses BnB nur empfehlen und würde dort immer wieder übernachten.

Friendly hosts, delicious breakfast, lovely stay
We had a lovely stay, Pete and Katie were very friendly and the house is beautiful. The room was clean and comfortable with everything we needed and in the mornings we enjoyed delicious breakfasts with a beautiful view. We chose to stay at Link House as we were going to the Lakes Distillery and it is easily walkable from the guest house. It’s a little too far away from Keswick or cockermouth to walk into town for dinner but if you don’t want to drive there is the x5 bus which we used to go to Keswick and it stops right outside the guesthouse.
