Cornerways Guest House

We only spent one night at Cornerways. It is within walking distance of the town centre and a parking permit is provided on arrival. There is plenty of on street parking near the guest house. The building looks Victorian and has been decorated by Adele and her husband in keeping with that era. Our room was very spacious, clean and well equipped. The bed was firm but comfortable and we had a good night’s sleep. There was a little en suite shower room which had been fitted retrospectively in the corner of the very large Victorian bedroom. The en suite was very clean. The shower was fine but not very powerful. A cooked breakfast has to be pre-ordered but that means no wait in the morning. Adele was very friendly and welcoming and I thought that the cost was very reasonable. I would recommend this guest house if staying in the area and you want something different from the usual chain hotels.

Excellent location for the City with parking around the area. Adela is a friendly, warm host who runs a great B & B. My room was very clean, comfortable and the shower was powerful. Excellent breakfast choice and very tasty too. Highly recommended.

My friend and I have had an excellent stay at this guest house. We shall highly recommend Adele for her warm hospitality and helpfulness. Our room was very clean and comfortable and breakfast was superb. You are an excellent host Adele, will tell all our family and friends to stay at your guest house.

Great find. Close to the centre of Carlisle. Lovely warm welcome. Immaculately clean. Spacious room. Decor cosy without being fussy. Excellent breakfast. Would definitely return if staying in Carlisle.

This was our stop off point on the way from Cornwall to a Scottish wedding. The guest house is a lovely building, perfectly located just a ten minute walk from the City centre. We arrived early enough to wander around the Cathedral, look at the castle and have a drink in town. The hostess, Adele, is absolutely lovely and can’t do enough for you. Parking is on street with a free “locals” disc pass provided by Adele. Our superior room was great with a separate room with bath and shower. Breakfast was huge and full of local produce (fab black pudding and sausages). There was yoghurt, fruit and cereal for those that can’t/don’t eat full English. If you want a recommendation for dinner, Gianni’s only 300m away is also a five for us. This will be our stopping point next visit.

I booked this accommodation on *********** on Sunday. The owner phoned me at 9pm on a Sunday evening unhappy with a request I’d made. I’d asked to keep my bicycle in a secure location indoors. She shouted “this is an expensive place with expensive carpets you can’t bring a bicycle inside”. She was very aggressive. Maybe she was having a bad day, maybe she hates cyclists, maybe this is just her manner. I asked if there was somewhere outside that I could lock my bike and she proceeded to rant that nobody in her 20 years had ever asked such a ridiculous thing. She suggested that I cancel, and at this point after her hostile Sunday evening phone call I agreed to which she said “right f** off then dear” and hung up. I suggest this is not the type of host most people who want to stay with.

Everything about my stay was perfect. I was greeted very warmly on arrival by the owner, Adele. The room looked recently-decorated and was extremely comfortable. I loved the extra little touches, such as the jar of cookies on the tea tray and the cotton wool balls in the bathroom. Adele went out of her way to make sure that I had something for breakfast before I left for work,I was truly touched. I will definitely return.

Lovely room, quiet area but not far from the city centre. Comfy bed and very fluffy towels. Breakfast was really nice, you have to order the might before but it was spot on. Only thing I would have liked is an option for vegetarian sausages on the menu. Friendly owner, would stay here again.

Beautifully furnished rooms and bathrooms with and excellent preorder breakfast . This guesthouse oozes quality throughout and time and effort has gone into making each room look stunning. Situated 10 mins walk from the train station & city centre but in a quiet residence of Victorian stunning houses.
