Willowbeck Lodge

They were the rudest people I've ever met and left us to sleep in our car. They wouldn't let us in cause it was late arrival. Terrible everything was booked for hours around us.

Very accommodating for business customers. Very clean and quiet, peace of mind guaranteed.

This was a beautiful place ! Everything was perfect ! The room was beautiful ( We had the Oak Room ) Had the most wonderful steak dinner and equally amazing breakfast ! Highly recommend and we will definitely return.

The staff was kind and helpful; the room (bathroom especially) was super clean. The on-site restaurant was excellent.

It was lovely but I picked based on Orbitz location search and in truth it was not well placed for what I needed. Is a bit tucked away- which is lovely but not what I needed.

Brilliant hotel, and lovely owners, will definitely be back. Thank you

Room was spacious and spotlessly clean. Bathroom modern and very clean. Bed lovely. Breakfast delicious. Staff very friendly.

Premium property with spacious rooms, an ensuite with a corner bath and corner shower. Comfortable nights sleep in a quite rural location overlooking a lake.

Lovely hotel with gorgeous surroundings, lush breakfast views and plentiful food options including vegan. Wished we'd had time to dine for dinner as such a pretty dining area and location. Lovely spacious, comfortable and luxurious room! Bathroom could be updated a little but was fine and spacious, hot water took a while to heat up and fluctuated a bit. Only slight complaint was that the 2nd morning there was some gentle pop on at breakfast (Ed Sheeran and the like) but it had quite a beaty bass and as our room was just above the dining area we were woken up from 0730ish to the noise of the bass which confused us as it came through the floor as though we'd woken up above a club! So would recommend the alternative tranquil bossa nova-ey music at breakfast which we had the first morning which was lovely and made us feel like we were back on holiday abroad! Otherwise the location was so quiet and tranquil :) We didn't bring our EV but looked like there were chargers too.

The hotel is very clean and tidy, everything is as new and a high standard (e.g. new carpets, no dust or tired décor like the large chain hotels) . Bathroom clean modern, functional. Bed mattress was lovely and soft. Host was extremely welcoming and polite. Food was excellent. Not just a great stop-over during travels, but a hotel that I would come back to for a holiday also. Very convenient for M6 travels and north Cumbria holidays.

Beautiful clean and spacious modern property. Just outside Carlisle, but feels like the fullness of the countryside. Very pleasant staff Stephen Robson

We stayed at Willowbeck Lodge for my 50th birthday, wow what an amazing place, staff very welcoming and polite, the rooms are clean spacious, bathroom was huge, we stayed in the oak room, beds very comfortable, breakfast was lovely, plenty of choice, definitely be returning to Willowbeck, totally amazing place

Comfortable, warm, very welcoming. Superb bed. Well heated room with thermostat control so I could adjust it to my liking. Really clean, large shower. Lots of books to read. Excellent, extremely tasty breakfast. And the design of the property produces a wonderful dining area with fantastic views over the garden.

We stayed for one night on the way home from Scotland. We were welcomed and checked in by a friendly lad, who showed us to our lovely room (the willow room), which is very spacious and has a really comfortable bed. The bathroom is huge too, with a separate bath and shower, and some lovely toiletries. We ate in the restaurant in the evening, very good quality food and service. The owner was friendly and made sure that we had everything we needed. Would definitely recommend.

Great place to stay for a day or so. Food is devine hosts are friendly and welcoming

Perfect halfway stop over, very clean and comfortable, will be using again in the near future.

It was some time since I last visited Carlisle and I was pleased when the staff provided useful information which helped me focus on places to visit during my short stay. Willow Lodge has a quiet rural setting but with easy access to the City and the M6 moterway. The rooms are clean, comfortable and maintained to a very high standard.

I’m not normally a fan of B&Bs, but this property is excellent. This B&B is located in a very quiet, rural location with lots of chirping birds, trees and a small pond. It is a 10 minute drive back to the City Center, where there is a train station, historic sites & pubs. The owners are very nice, helpful and not nosey/intrusive (one of the reasons I don’t like B&Bs). Our room (Willow Room) was very large with a huge bathroom and separate soaking tub. Breakfast is available in the morning. We wish we could have stayed longer. We will definitely return.

What can we say but one of the best places we have ever stayed !! Andrew was the most hospitable host, the accommodation was exceptional and the food was amazing. Would have no hesitation in recommending to anyone and really hope we get the opportunity to stay here again.............and soon !!

Lovely accommodation, peaceful and very comfortable, pleasant hosts courteous and king
