Beautiful B&B located in Greystoke Cumbria. A welcome oasis if you are cycling Coast to Coast. Hazel made us so welcome and nothing too much trouble. Lovely rooms with little luxurious touches such as robes and fresh fruit! A great breakfast to send you off with some of the best porridge I have ever tasted!

...and I'm not JUST talking about the breakfast. Which is certainly a winner...in fact I'm still trying to work out how they managed to get fresh grapes each morning, when most of Cumbria was under three feet of snow! I stayed here first three years ago whilst on the C2C, and have made an annual trip back with my son... More

5 Stars are just not enough for the attention to detail & the quality of service that is provided by Hazel & Ian. I just cannot fault the place. There are 5 star hotels I have stayed in that could learn a lot from Hazel. And as for the breakfast, Cooked as you want it, Perfect! So a Perfect Location,... More

Visited this hotel last year, over a bank holiday weekend. On arrival, we were greeted by the magnificent exterior and gardens of the Folly. The welcome was great, and the top floor bedroom and living area were magnificent. The rooms have been well decorated to match the magnificent building. The local pub recommendation was also much appreciated! And a great... More

Warm welcome and nice rooms. We were like other reviews said made to feel very at home. The breakfast was the standout best part of our stay, all cooked fresh and very generous portions, not so much choice if you are a vegy. Great location, I would go back, and what is more I would recommend others to stay if... More

For a perfect brake in beautiful surroundings,this would be our first choice again and again.The way Hazel and Ian have presented Stafford House is second to none with no attention to detail overlooked either in the rooms or their welcoming manner and overall friendliness.You could not ask to be made to feel more welcome,looking forward to December 2013 as we...

Ian and Hazel deserve all the praise they get for running this little gem- We turned up as 3 very soggy, very muddy and generally unappealing guests to stay in the bunkhouse overnight whilst cycling the coast to coast in atrocious weather and were welcomed by both of them personally in the drive despite the rain. -Spotlessly clean -Lovely and...

I wonder how many hidden gems there are up and down the country but I am so glad I was able to stay in one. I booked Stafford House for our wedding anniversary and I cannot speak highly enough of the hosts (Ian & Hazel), the accommodation, the breakfasts and the village of Greystoke. Arriving at night was exciting, driving... More

What can I say - perfect! Imaculate, beautifully kept Folly in lovely grounds. There was nothing lacking. Bathroom toiletries, fully equipt beverage tray (tea, coffee, hot chocolate, water, biscuits and fruit) and a wide variety of excellent breakfast food. Comfy bed and pillows (although bed did creak). Guests lounge was very comfortable with Sky TV - even a bowl of... More
