Mosser Heights

Enjoy England Four Stars

Accommodation Details

We are a family run working Beef & Sheep farm offering clean, comfortable and friendly farmhouse Bed & Breakfast. Situated just off the beaten track yet still in the Lake District National Park, a serene and peaceful location. Quality has not been compromised as we have been awarded 4 stars by the Quality In Tourism Board.

:: Our Guest Accommodation
Our bedrooms are spacious and comfortable, with tea making facilities and fresh towels daily. A separate guest lounge to relax in and where tea and homemade cake is served at no extra cost on your arrival, our welcome to you.

The guest lounge has a colour TV and for those cooler evenings a wood burning stove. The dining room has one large dining table for up to 10 guests so it's a good way to meet and make new friends. Breakfast is served here and you will find that it is very substantial indeed, a perfect way to start the day!

A full English breakfast with tea and toast plus cereal and fruit juice and homemade marmalade, we are sure you will enjoy. There are vegetarian options and special diets can be catered for with prior notice. Evening meals are also available with prior notice and again special diets can be catered for. The menu is a set menu and comprises 3 courses with a complimentary glass of wine as we do not have a licence to sell. All food is freshly prepared and where possible local produce is used, with the emphasis on homemade traditional food.

Packed lunches and flasks filled are also available.

:: Locality
Our location is ideal for walking, cycling and touring as we are just 2 miles from Loweswater and 4 miles from Cockermouth.
Loweswater is a very picturesque lake and the walk around the back of the lake leads you through wooded areas and in early season the bluebells are breath taking. The walk itself is about 4 miles and there the Kirkstile pub at the far end of the lake brews it's own beer and serves bar food.

The fells of Loweswater spill out towards Crummock water and Buttermere. Also we are in easy reach of Ennerdale, so if you haven't explored or would like to revisit the western lake district we are ideally placed to offer you that comfortable base.

Cockermouth is a small market town and the Poet William Wordsworth once lived there, you can even tour his old house, it goes without saying that the area is awash with hosts of golden daffodils around February and March, and don't worry we are open all year so you can catch the views.

Cockermouth is also home to the Jennings Brewery and you can book tours there and sample the beers.

There is also a toy museum and art gallery, a sports centre with swimming pool, a golf course, and of course lots of little shops, pubs and cafes. There is also the Sheep & Wool centre on the A66 at Cockermouth, demonstrations of sheep and shearing are carried out there, also a gift shop and tea room. Across the way up behind the Cattle and Sheep Mart is Wellington farm tea shop and ice cream parlour, they make their own ice cream from their Jersey Cows, we highly recommend a visit.
