About

Stafford House is a charming lake‑district bed & breakfast housed in a Grade II‑listed folly, set amidst the stunning grounds of Greystoke Castle. The property offers a blend of historic character and modern comfort, with luxurious en‑suite rooms that feature a 4‑poster king‑size bed, contemporary furnishings, and high‑speed free Wi‑Fi. Each morning guests are treated to a hearty English breakfast crafted from the finest local produce – a real taste of the Lake District. For couples, families, or word‑of‑mouth‑seeking solo travellers, the house provides a tranquil retreat from the hustle and bustle, with easy access to the M6 and a host of walking, cycling and motor‑cycling routes. The pet‑friendly lodges neighbouring the main house allow guests to bring their four‑legged companions, while the main house remains a peaceful, pet‑free sanctuary. Visitors who plan a short stay of a few days will quickly discover why Stafford House has earned a “Certificate of Excellence” from Tripadvisor. The combination of heritage ambience, thoughtful service and a relaxed rural setting makes it an ideal base for exploring the natural beauty of the Lake District.
