Lowbyer Manor Country House

Lovely manor house B&B with friendly and welcoming staff. Very short walk into the village. Food was wholesome and delicious.

Breakfast was an absolute delight. Really accommodating at short notice!

All round excellent. Friendly, lovely room and guest lounge is lovely.

Very accommodating with the dog.

The people who run the Manor were extremely welcoming and considerate. The lounge is really nice and comfortable, the room and en-suite were clean and breakfast was excellent. We’d travelled through appalling heavy rain and I was pleasantly surprised that the central heating came on in early September although Alston is at pretty high altitude and so it may be necessary. We had to go out for an evening meal because no food is available on a Sunday but I think it s on other nights. We went out at just after 6 PM and got a table at the Alston House but someone who arrived afterwards was turned away and had been turned away at the Cumberland Arms because they’d also stopped serving. It appears that you need to eat fairly early in Alston on a Sunday night or book beforehand. This isn’t really part of the review but may be worth bearing in mind.
