Great friendly welcome. They were understanding that we may have arrived late. We got an upgrade on the room which was nice of them too. Nice cosy atmosphere. Having a pool is a definite plus. Great views from all around the building given the elevation and windows across the bay and hills. Breakfast was fantastic. Compliments to the chef. Great value for money.

High recommend

Cannot fault our recent stay, Property is very clean and tidy, room recently refurbished to a standard above most of the premium hotels I have visited .Owners very friendly and welcoming, nothing too much trouble, breakfast was cooked fresh with a very good range of options.Pool complex was also clean tidy and very well maintained, water temperature was very comfortable, no shock to the system as you first emerge.Location of property seems a bit out of town, but in reality is only 5 min drive to harbour area or £5-7 taxi.Wifi is quick and free, streamed TV worked fine. There is a Pub and local shop within 100yds of propery but did not visit on this ocassion.No need as there is a honesty bar stocked with all the drinks and snacks you could need at very resonable prices.

Weekend away for Leyland National 51 Festival

Really lovely clean and tidy place, love the honesty bar, dog friendly which was great, no fuss style and presentation. Some open space around the corner so great for the dog to have early morning exercise. It's at the top of a big hill, so be prepared for that before getting into the centre of Whitehaven. Would highly recommend.

Feb stay

This is a fab little bed and breakfast. Dog friendly, family friendly, business trip friendly. Honesty bar on site with a selection of alcholic and non alcoholic drinks and snacks. Pub in walking distance. Breakfast was very good. Shame we couldnt have used the swimming facilities, but this was due to our circumstances not the facilities themselves. View from my room was lovely both day and night.

Festival weekend

We travelled to Whitehaven for The Boof, a Pop Indie Music Festival and we were pleased to stay at The Mansion. Ian and his partner were very hospitable and easy to talk to. They made our trip very pleasant indeed. The guest house is a work in progress. It is a big establishment that is going to take a while to fully renovate. However, our room was big and comfortable with a nice view. The bed was good and we slept well. The bath had some marks on it, but the bedroom and bathroom was clean and fine for our needs. Breakfast was nice and we also used the pool which was an added bonus. I would recommend some new towels.

Had a lovely stay at The Mansion, very pleasant hotel with clean and comfy rooms and a great breakfast. Ian and Rav are super hosts, really friendly and very helpful with tips on places to visit, pubs and restaurants and some good walks. We certainly walked more this weekend than we have in a while. I'd recommend the Mansion to anyone visiting the Whitehaven are. Thanks for your hospitality and for your help with our car trouble

Clean and tidy basic b and b. The owners were excellent. Decent breakfast. Nice views over the valley, premises sits on edge of a large estate. The view from the breakfast window was an accident damaged car being repaired in a neighbours drive. The reception area is confusing with a myriad if signs regarding milk and the fridge, there was no obvious place for reception. The following morning, upstairs, I saw what I presume is reception, with a visitors book and card reader. The room was clean and tidy but did feel a but tired. I had a good nights sleep
