I stayed with Sharon for 4 days for a mixed pleasure-work trip and could not have been happier. The room was huge and spotless (not a cobweb or speck of dust anywhere!), the welcome was warm and Cockermouth is a beautiful and charming base for exploring the Lake District.
My husband and I looked forward to our wonderful breakfasts in Sharon's sunny conservatory and she packed us homemade cookies in the picnic lunches she made for us as we set out to walk in the neighbouring fells. Dinner at Sharon's is definitely a must - she is well-connected with local farms and a keen activist in the locavore-organic movement which means you are in good hands.
We loved our stay here and it was less stuffy and formal than some of the other b&bs we've stayed in. You get to enjoy lots of interaction with your hosts but also have lots of privacy. And Sharon is a warm and generous person who goes out of her way to make you feel spoiled. We'd definitely go back again!

Brilliant place to stay. Warm welcome, lovely room and Sharon's dinner was superb (not to mention breakfast). We were only staying overnight but we couldn't have chosen better. And a real plus that Sharon uses low/no mileage and organic ingredients in her wonderful cooking.

Ruth and Ros had 3 nights of luxury with great attention to detail and wonderful food with individual catering to suit needs. Try the evening meals!

Thanks Sharon and Richard

For a truly wonderful 2 night stay this week. Lovely homely-feel as i shared your house. The room is spacious, clean and well-equipped. Sharons Cumbrian breakfast and packed lunch set you up for a whole-day hike. Must thank Richard for his excellent guided walk into nearby buttermere and up onto the fells. His knowledge of the area was excellent and made it even more enjoyable. I've never had a guide from a b&b before so this was greatly appreciated as I walking on my own.
Back at briar bank both Sharon and Richard are a lovely couple to engage in conversation with on a myriad of topics!
Thanks once again for a superb visit.

Just spent a couple of wonderful nights stay with Sharon and Richard Watson in their lovely home in cockermouth. Recommend the lamb casserole and Cumbrian breakfast. Ideal sustenance if you're undertaking a modest guided walk in beautiful buttermere / crummuck water , or scaling haystacks with Richard!
