A place where you can be assured of a warm welcome.
Yes Thorney How has a lovely homely feel and the staff have a great welcoming touch even when we arrived at 9pm. After putting our gear in our room we made our way to the dinning room which is warm thanks to the wood burning stove and also with plenty of room to relax.There is a good selection of beers and wine available.
So after a good nights sleep the breakfast awaited and this was a great start to the day hot well cooked and good quality ingredients so the full English is recommended.
A great place to stay excellent location good service and superb value for money,will certainly be staying again.

Lakes Trip 8th-10th August 2012
Off i set for a journey around the Lake District.
Lift to train station then off to Windermere and then bus to Keswick, after a bit of shopping at Booths i headed for Keswick Steamers for a trip to Hawse End and up Catbells with the throngs.
So with the crowds and Catbells behind me it was fine walking over Maiden Moor to High Spy.
Now downward to Dalehead Tarn sun beating down what great weather.
Next job was to bag Dale Head and then down again to Honister Hause and YHA for the night.
