We stayed at White Moss house with another couple for three nights. It's a very clean and excellent place to stay. We were surprised it is not ranked higher as we honestly couldn't fault a single thing about this property. Beds were exceptionally comfortable and service in general was impeccable - right through from tea, coffee and cakes on arrival... More

We have just stayed at White Moss for two nights and would like to say how much we enjoyed it. It is a beautiful period property with direct links to William Wordsworth who influenced some of the layout you see today. Upon arrival we were greeted with home made cakes and a pot of tea. It was lovely to sit... More

Stayed at White Moss House in Grassmere for 2 nights. We were slightly disappointed with this B&B. Firstly it was not located within walking distance of Grasmere, located on a busy main road, it's not possible to walk in because it is too far but also there are no pavements to walk on and at night time it was pitch...

We are a mile from Grasmere, perfectly located for hikers and lovers of the outdoors ( with a big car park!) The famous White Moss walks start from our door. This was the wrong location for these guests. This couple from Liverpool stayed on a wet, dark weekend in November, and as they wanted to spend the evening in the... More

A warm "thank you" to Sue, Peter and Karin for their hospitality. A lovingly maintained Wordsworth influenced property that was ideally positioned for our walking mini-break. We climbed Helvellyn, walked up to Easedale Tarn and meandered around Tarn Hows in what turned out to be the warmest October in 100 years. A very well looked after property retaining historic decor.... More

Never having been to the Lake District before, but hearing how lovely and bucolic it is, I wanted to find a bed and breakfast that was special and unique. White Moss house far surpassed any of my expectations and I had an absolutely wonderful time! The house was gorgeous and the facilities were excellent. Sue was delightful and everyone was... More

We were welcomed by a very lovely lady who was very polite and nothing was too much trouble. The house is beautiful, in a very lovely location. Buses need some working out - ask the staff! Breakfast was fantastic, bed was very comfortable the only downside was the en-suite (room 3) which was so small and dated it was impracticable... More

I had a great time staying at White Moss. The place is beautiful, comfortable, and the owner Sue was an excellent host. The award-winning breakfast was amazing! Beautifully presented, absolutely delicious, and the home-made marmalade was the best I've ever had. My room was very comfortable and I had everything that I needed. I really loved the Pure Lakes natural... More

White Moss House was a pure joy! Beautiful facilities with very friendly and helpful staff. A wonderful place from which to explore the pristine beauty of Grasmere and Rydal Waters. Also a wonderful breakfast. Highly recommended.

We really enjoyed our stay, in fact we extended it from 3 to 6 nights. Once we figured out the local bus system, we realized how central and convenient it was. Though not extensive walkers, we easily walked from there to Rydal and Grasmere, including to Dove Cottage and to Rydal Mount. Sue was very helpful with local area advice... More

From arrival to departure over a very warm weekend, we were delighted with the location, accommodation, hospitality & food. We had the only room available at that time, which was the smallest & apparently the oldest room in this very historic house. It was very clean, overlooking the pretty front garden & patio. It had the required facilities but next... More
