Six Castlegate's attention to detail was so charming. Easy to deal with through emails. Room lovely, (a bit of an understatement), breakfast, such a lovely well presented choice. Just easy place to stay in. Hopefully Cockermouth's strength and character will bring this charming town back to it's vibrant former glory and a stay at Six Castlegate will make it a... more

Probably the best b&b we have stayed in. The room was lovely, breakfast first-class and the hosts welcoming and helpful. Lovely old house in a quiet part of the town. We will defintely visit again when we return to Cumbria. If you are looking for somewhere for dinner in the evening try 'The Front Room' which is a bistro just... more

Having read the reviews on this site, I had very high expectations of this B&B and I have to say that they were entirely met. The rooms and the communcal areas were stunning, we had paid an extra £5 for a slightly better room, and I cna't say how much better it was becuase I didn't see the other rooms,... more

However, our stay at Six Castlegate totally changed our view. After a lot of searching on the internet for accommodation, and coming across... more

Only required a one night accomodation but would gladly have stayed longer, congratulations to the owners who have obviously worked hard to ensure guests had everything required, exceptionally hot weather and even a fan in the room, breakfast was lovely, didn't feel like a B/B more like a charming small hotel, more

Following our short stay in the wonderful Six Castlegate we felt compelled to write a review and tell the world how much we enjoyed our time staying with Alan and Angela (our welcoming hosts). The breakfast, my favourite bit in any B&B, was 15 out of ten for quality and the selection and presentation was second to none. The room... more

Second time i have stayed with my girlfiend now future wife, must say it is superb with lovely rooms clean and tidy with fresh sheets and excellent bathroom, complimented by the kind hosts and excellent breakfasts. Certainly would recommend a stay and a superb position for a walk into Cockermouth, hopefully back again just a shame we live on the... more
