Reviews for Caledonia Guest House
Review 1：Nothing, it was perfect!
Review 2：Host was lovely and accommodating, even ironing my shirt for me when I asked. Breakfast was delicious with a wide range of options. Room was modern and well furnished while restaurant still maintained a classic feel.
Review 3：Quality furnishings, clean, thoughtfully decorated with lovely touches like local tea, biscuits and bottled water in the rooms. Excellent breakfast, personable and friendly owners, who went above and beyond to ensure we had a smooth arrival and comfortable and enjoyable stay.
Review 4：No wifi access - room wasn't near enough to router.
Review 5：Bright airy room, everything clean. Friendly welcome despite late arrival. Breakfast was good - properly-cooked rashers!
Review 6：The parking at the rear of the guesthouse is a bit tight but the owner was very helpful in helping us to park.
Review 7：The owners, Ian and Sue, were extremely friendly and attentive. Everything was spotlessly clean. The breakfast was excellent.
Review 8：The photo of the guest house is misleading and we were surprised to find it on a fairly busy road, though that did give easy access to restaurants etc in town.
Review 9：After a difficult start (our fault because we arrived earlier than we were expected) the proprietors were very kind. Beautiful breakfast.
Review 10：Sue and Ian were wonderfully welcoming and accommodating. As we now have family in Penrith i can see this becoming a favourite place to stay for other members of the family and friends.
Review 11：super helpful hosts! The hostess is so nice that she made us breakfast at about 6:30 in the morning, because we had to catch the early train. And the breakfast is great!
Review 12：The room was spotless and very comfortable and very good value for money. Ian and Sue were very friendly and their breakfast was delicious. Would definitely stay here again if we were in the area.
Review 13：Not a problem for us but bedrooms up stairs so check if you have mobility restrictions.
Review 14：Welcoming hosts, excellent choice at breakfast, hot showers, comfortable beds. Good location for motorway access, Lake District and surrounding areas. Within walking distance of shops and eating places in Penrith. Would be happy to stay again and to recommend to others.
Review 15：when doing the C2C on the bike, we arrived late and was given a warm welcome, which was nice as it was late and had a long day in the saddle. The room was very clean and comfy. Definitely would recommend.
Review 16：Couldn't stand up straight in the toilet area
Review 17：Comfortable and friendly place to stay. Town centre a very short walk away,and ideally situated for the lakes or the north pennines
Review 18：Access to surrounding area of the lake district was easy and the bed and breakfast was well located for getting into Penrith with plenty of excellent places to eat nearby. Would definitely stay here again.
Review 19：Not a bad experience at all. The mattress on my bed was a little too forgiving for my back, it sloped to one side.
Review 20：The home cooked breakfast was excellent. We had an early departure and Ian kindly drove us to the station with a packed breakfast included. In all a very good stay with lovely people.
