Would highly recommend staying at Albany House when in Penrith! It was a lovely bed & breakfast in a great location. It was our first time in Penrith and we really enjoyed exploring the town and then returning to our clean and comfortable room at Albany House in the evening.

10/10 Exceptional

Superb in every way.

This proved to be one of the superior B&Bs we have ever used. Apart from the comfort and cleanliness we discovered two small brownies and two KitKats on the tea tray. Breakfast was delicious - porridge, fresh fruit salad, any cereals, full breakfasts and scrambled eggs with smoked salmon . Very inexpensive.
Allan, 1-night trip

Albany very good!

My first experience in a bed and breakfast in Penrith was very nice. Big bay windows and a large bedroom all to myself. The lady who served me was very nice and pleasant with me. She taught me how to open the door if I came back late.
Miss, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This was a good location to jump off the motorway for an overnight stay. I arrived about 9.15pm and was welcomed in warmly. I was given a parking permit to put on the car which was parked on the road outside. The room was immaculate and spacious for 2 adults. It was lovely to get some divine chocolate brownies which hit the spot with a cup of tea before bed. Slept very well. The shower was great the next morning with small bottles of shampoo and shower gel provided. Breakfast was plentiful and delicious. Will definitely stay again. Thank you

10/10 Exceptional

The property was FIRST CLASS. Rooms were spotless and had every convenience , right down to the fans in this humid weather. I had the full English breakfast and it was the best in all my years travelling around the UK. Nothing was too much to ask of the hosts. And , PENRITH is beautiful with so much to do and see. Everything was brilliantly ENGLISH ( this from a Glaswegian!) , the history , the buildings , the stories. The locals were all real friendly in the bars and restaurants ( fantastic selection of places). Just loved the whole trip! 10/10. , Martin Watt
