Glastonbury will be packed, but here it looks like it might be a quieter weekend. We’ve been full all week, and the Ambleside area has been gridlocked this weekend thanks to the Great North Swim, but we’ve got a few quiet days coming up, and we just wanted to alert all you blog followers to our special offers.

Thanks to the power of the internet, we have filled Brockstone for most of the nights mentioned in our offer below. We can still offer you bargain rates for a long weekend though, on Thursday, Friday and Saturday, 23, 24 and 25 June.

If you want to stay self catering go to Brockstone Grasmere holiday cottage, for details, or email sue@whitemoss.com, or phone me on 015394 35295

For bed and breakfast at White Moss House, you can check our rates on  our online booking chart. Please ring or email us to make your booking at the numbers above.

The lakes are just looking lovely, and it stays light until after 10pm. Treat yourselves to a break- you’re worth it!

A guest we had staying the other days asked Peter in the evening “when are you going to ask me what I want for breakfast?”
“When you sit down at a table in the dining room tomorrow morning” he said.
It seems as if most bed and breakfast places ask you to order your breakfast by about 8pm the evening before. Also, you often have to pick a time slot.
Not at White Moss House you don’t! Our 30 years experience of serving highly rated Good Food Guide dinners has meant that serving a freshly cooked to order breakfast, juice, cereals, choice of teas and coffees, all served to you at a table of your choice at a time of your choice, is something we can do really well ( no point in false modesty here!).
We have an award from the AA for outstanding breakfasts. If you’ve never visited us- take a look at our website and see if you’re able to sample the Wordsworth lounge, the lovely terrace, the White Moss walks……………etc, etc! Here’s the link to White Moss House website

The Wordsworth Lounge at White Moss House now is proud to feature a baby grand piano. Guests are very welcome to play  it, and this morning we’ve all enjoyed hearing a very talented young man from Germany seranading us!

We seem to be welcoming lots of overseas guests right now. Current guests are from Germnay, Australia and Spain. In fact, we seem to be seeing a lot of Australian guests right now. The Aussie dollar is stronger than it’s been for years, which is great news, as they are always great guests. We Love Aussies!
