The Mansion

Consistently praised for clean, spacious rooms with comfortable beds and pleasant views. Excellent breakfast options and location for exploring the area. Well-maintained facilities, friendly staff, and accommodating pets.

What an excellent find this delightful b&b is.  Located in Whitehaven, this b&b is a great spot to tour from.  Visitors are a mix of contractors and tourists & the b&b seems to cater exceedingly well for either. We were greeted warmly by Nav on arrival. Nav showed us to our room on the ground floor,  next to the pool area. The rooms are bright and freshly decorated, in neutral but warm colours -  carpets and mattresses are new. They are well laid out,  plenty of space,  with a table if you need to work,  ensuite, wardrobe, and table with kettle etc.  Sachets of tea and coffee are plentiful, and extra available nearby. Nav showed us around the b&b, up to the bar (self service with honesty box), well stocked with good selections, the breakfast room, then onto the gardens.  Nav has done a wonderful job with the gardens, similar to the rooms, the views are spectacular, and the area so very peaceful.  Nav provided lots of helpful recommendations for places to visit nearby and places to eat. After a blissful night's sleep (a very quiet location) we ventured to breakfast, again to a warm hello from Nav who cooked us an excellent full English (other options available.  In addition, there are a varied selection of cereals, fruit, yogurt, pastries,  juice,  toast and preserves. We were definitely not left hungry or thirsty,  being supplied with a carafe of coffee, & the kippers on our last day were scrummy. Although we didn't have time to use the pool, we did sneak a look,  it was very clean, and the room bright and airy - maybe next time. There definitely will be a next time,  not only to see how the garden is coming along, but because this is a lovely b&b.  Nav and Ian have put a great deal into making the b&b a home away from home,  and are fantastic hosts,  lighting up the room with their warmth and friendliness.  A pleasure to visit.

I travelled for a business meeting. The Mansion B&B is a family run enterprise, very welcoming, very homely, very clean. I didn't use the pool but will next time... on a hill so great views and great value for money. I'd highly recommend it if in Whitehaven vicinity.
