We were charmed by this place. We had a nice conversation with the bartender. The lake district was a glorious surprise on our trip to the UK.

A truly fabtastic stay!!! I took part in "The Lap" 47 mile ultramarathon on the Saturday and was booked to stay Friday through to checkout on Sunday. I actually finished work early and asked if i could add a day on. The hosts were very accommodating and so i stayed an extra night. When i got there, the staff were very welcoming, the bar was fully stocked with lots of drinks and crisps too. The room was very comfortable, great bathroom and very comfy bed. The service was excellent. The room was made everyday and restocked. Fantastic!! Evening Meal was gorgeous. Very high quality food and a good selection. Breakfast was impossible for me as i had to leave at 5am for the race so the hosts made me a breakfast bag, which i thought was very kind of them. Breakfast the Sunday morning was very nice. Good selection if cereals, toast, fruit, coffee, tea, juices etc. I VERY HIGHLY recommend the Cuckoo Brow not only for the comfort and location to the Lake Windermere, but the hosts too. Very very lovely people who make your stay very comfortable. Im doing The Lap again next year and my girlfriend has already booked our stay here for 2026 ( Miss Jackson) so that shows you how good it is.

My brother and I had an excellent stay at the Cuckoo Brow Inn. The Cuckoo Brow Inn is the ideal quaint B&B in the Lake District for a very reasonable rate. The staff were very friendly, the restaurant served up delicious traditional Cumbrian fare for breakfast and dinner, and the room was comfortable and updated (appreciated the clawfoot tub). Couldn't have asked for more.

A very traditional style Inn with old world charm, a bit tired in place but more than made up for by friendly staff and excellent food.

The staff , chef and management were excellent. The food was amazing, the bed super comfy, the setting quiet. It is run by a Mauritian family and they were super charming and really understood the importance of good hospitality.
