We stayed for two nights on a bank holiday weekend. We were given a very warm welcome and an immaculately clean, beautifully decorated room. The bed was extremely comfortable and we had two fantastic nights' sleep. The ensuite bathroom was extremely small (including a tiny shower cubicle) but was perfectly serviceable. The breakfast was especially impressive- everything homemade, including preserves... More

Stayed recently in one of their lovely bright suite-rooms with it's own sofa and TV area a few steps down from bedroom. Delighted with our choice -the owners are lovely-there when you need them but not 'in your face' as they say. Breakfast was scrumptious and room was just a pleasure to come back to after a days walking. Well... More

I would recommend Rockside Guest House to anyone, Caroline and Martin were very welcoming, the room was clean and very well decorated. a comfy bed, a lovely breakfast. Close proximity to the train station, and just a short walk to Windermere and Bowness. We will definitely visit again.

Just returned from a stay at The Rockside, It was everything and more than other reviews have said. 100% value for money, clean comfy beds, fab breakfast, lovely people, each room individually decorated. We will definitely stay there again, the only thing I would say is if you struggle with steep stairs then make sure you get a low level... More

The interior and rooms have been decorated tastefully in a modern style and are very homely. The rooms are spacious, beds are comfortable and the bathroom was large and looked newly decorated. The breakfast menu was varied and the food was... More

Rockside Guest House is excellent. The room was a decent size, furnished tastefully in a modern style. The ensuite shower room was similarly of a decent size. Both bedroom and shower room looked as though they had been redecorated recently. Breakfast was superb - a spacious breakfast room, with a wide range of local produce, prepared to order, and very...

We had a lovely stay here; the room (no. 7) was spotless and very homely with everything you need. The bed was so comfy i wanted to take it home with me! The breakfast was fab, and the owners were very welcoming. In fact there was a homely feel to Rockside the minute we walked through the door. The location... More

Excellent guest house. We stayed for two nights and can only say everything was first class. Caroline was very nice and provided us with a superb english breakfast, there was also a variety of many healthy alternatives of home made jams preserves and even cereals. We would not hesitate to stay again. Many thanks Linda & Mike (Liverpool)

We stayed here with another couple after finding it on Laterooms and checking out their web site. It looked just as the photos indicated. Caroline was so friendly and welcoming. The breakfast was one of the best we have had with local produce and each afternoon when we returned there was an treat of a plate of home made biscuits... More
