We loved the wayside whiskey barn. We had the twin room which was tastefully decorated. The whole place was real class. We had a full english for breakfast which was delicious. Emiko was a lovely lady . She let us book in a bit earlier. She went out of her way for anything that you would need. We would definately go back for a return visit.

Lovely B&B on the West side of the Lake District. Beautifully restored farmhouse with an excellent whiskey bat - have to admit to trying the bespoke Gins rather than Scotch. Will return.

Special place.
This is a very special place to stay with a wonderful hostess. Lots of little touches that made our Ruby Wedding celebration extra special. The evening meal and breakfast were excellent and the selection of whisky amazed us.

Lovely location & plush room
Perfect location to explore the peaks Lake District or the beaches of Millom. We hiked up Scafell Pike and the drive to and fro was just 40 mins. The room itself was gorgeous, tastefully decorated and very plush. Lovely owners, very courteous and helpful and accommodated our last minute booking and late checkin/checkout requirements without a fuss. Totally recommend the stay here to getaway from the humdrum of city life!

Amazing stay at wayside - the room was absolutely beautiful, and the hosts were amazing. They told us all about local hiking trails, and how to get to the gorgeous beach only 5 minutes away. Loved the whiskey bar - and the breakfasts were delicious :)

Beautiful cosy accommodation with generous rooms
Beautiful place. We stayed in the annexe which had a roll top bath - amazing! Very comfy bed everything you could need including bubble bath for a long soak. Breakfast was lovely all fresh cooked produce - very cosy place. We will be returning and we will also be sampling more of Stephens whisky collection!

Come by the Wayside!
This place is such a gem that this is the first time I have ever reviewed a place I have stayed at! Steven and Lynne are lovely and nothing is too much trouble. They have restored the place to an extremely high standard and location wise, it's right next door to The Lakes but without all the traffic and people! The local beach goes on for miles but you'll be lucky to see a handful of people on there, which adds to the tranquility of your stay. And the Whisky Barn...Wow, just Wow! I will be back!
