Nice place, lovely host!
First thing we realised when we turned up was that you are not staying on a farm but in a characterful old farmhouse. You have to park on the road outside but it is off the main road and is very quiet.
Jan, is a wonderful host, welcoming, friendly, and a really good cook. The breakfasts and the one evening meal we had were excellent - and better than the ones we had in the upmarket hotel we stayed in afterwards. If you like good food then consider staying here. The dining room is nice to eat in.
Our room was spotlessly clean, well decorated and comfortable. This is an old property with character, so it was no surprise to find slightly sloping floors in our room. We noted just two niggles. It may be down to water pressure or the shower head but the shower in our room was not particularly powerful. The second issue is if someone in a neighbouring room decides to get up at 4am to go downstairs and/or leave early, you will probably wake up. This happened only once however.
With Pen-y-ghent and other attractions close by this is an ideal B&B for hikers, walkers and sight-seers. We tend not to stay in the same place twice but, should we go back to the area, we may well look to stay here again.
