Maple Bank Country Guest House

Maple Bank is a gem of a place. Super location literally 100 yards from a bus stop, which has an hourly bus right through to midnight, with a £2 fare cap! We chose to walk in to Keswick one morning which took about 50 minutes. Check-in was great and informative, outlining options for breakfast for vegetarian & vegan choices. Breakfast was superb with quality ingredients. All freshly made. Room was perfectly equipped and had everything you could need. Great range of local toiletries. Highly recommended spot & will definitely be back.

Great guest house. Everything you could want is provided even homemade cake which is lovely and can be taken on walks out on the fells. Breakfast is delicious, beds are comfy, location ideal for the fells and local pubs and restaurants. Will be coming back! Thank you.

My husband and I just spent three nights at this wonderful guest house. Really, we loved verything about it. We had an extremely warm welcome with a detailed explanation of how everything works. Our room was spotless with a beautiful view, comfortable bed, exquisite toiletries and a well stocked tray including chocolate biscuits. If you wanted fresh milk it was always available from a fridge in the dining room and the owners even provide small flasks to keep it cool in your room. Guests are welcome to use the fridge to chill their own bottle of wine. Everything we ate at breakfast was beautifully prepared and cooked. Every day there is some sort of yummy cake left out in the dining room for guests to help themselves to. On one evening we ordered the fish platter to eat in the dining room and it was gorgeous! In fact it was my favourite dinner of the three nights we were away. We would love to return one day. Thank you for our wonderful short break.

A truly fabulous place to stay! We left today and had a really relaxed and enjoyable stay with Kate and her family. Breakfast was scrumptious and nothing was a burden, very helpful staff. Rooms lovely, stunning views of the hills and very comfortable beds. Will be back!

We spent Thursday-Sun at Mabel Bank with our dog in July. We could not have been happier with our stay. The house is stunning and the views are amazing. The garden is pristine with beautiful scenery around it. Our room was spotless with everything we could need for ourselves and our dog. The breakfast is included with the stay and you order the night before. We had some delicious choices and tried the cooked breakfasts as well as eggs royale/eggs benedict. Everything was hot and fresh. There are also fresh baked goods each afternoon which are homemade and so tasty. This is a great afternoon snack after a long day walking. The staff are so friendly and helpful. The location is fantastic with lovely pubs just 5-15 minutes walk away. We tried all of the recommended spots. We also went into Keswick town centre, went on the steam train and a self drive motor boat. Our stay was overall fantastic. We could not recommend Maple Bank anymore if we tried!! We already cannot wait to return. You are able to treat it like a home away from home. Thank you so much for our amazing stay. We would 100% recommend to anyone wanting to book. Every single detail is taken care of and you do not have to worry about anything when you are there. Overall superb!!!! Lots of love Laurie, Alex and Olly xxx

Lakes trip as a group of six and we were all very happy with our stay at Maple Bank. The guest house is very clean. Kate and her staff are friendly and helpful. Breakfast is delicious and complimentary cake is available in the afternoon. There are lots of thoughtful touches throughout the property to make guests stay enjoyable. We really appreciated the downstairs fridge with milk that could be used with a cool bottle to stay fresh for several hours. The system to request additional supplies such as teabags worked really well. There’s free parking and the house is in a lovely location with pubs and good food in walking distance. We used the bus to travel into and from Keswick, the bus stop is convenient. We had heavy rain during our trip and were grateful to use additional umbrellas provided. We would recommend Maple Bank for a comfortable stay in the Lakes.
