This charming village offers a peaceful escape with its historic church and traditional English pubs along the River Irthing. Explore nearby Hadrian's Wall or venture to Carlisle for its medieval castle and cathedral when you're ready for more attractions.
Room was immaculate and refurbished recently by the looks of it. Good breakfast choices in the cafe downstairs and the staff are very helpful.
Only thing was that the B&B had no notification from Expedia that the stay had been prepaid and so they went to take payment from me. I was able to show them an email from Expedia to show it was paid. They took a photo of it and that was that. Not their fault.

My wife and I booked 2 nights in this Bed & Breakfast establishment because we thought it looked fantastic and the reviews were excellent and we had promised ourselves a special break away from home that was something to remember.
We were greeted by Ian and Hazel who showed us to our room and they freely offered us everything that we had hoped for. The room was spotless and comfortable and the choice of breakfast simply amazing.
The Lakes are all within easy reach and the views simply...

Everything in Shaftoes have been done to a very high standard. Dave could not have done more to make our stay better. Recommends eating places, booked a table and sorted out a menu for us that suited our taste. Verry good knowledge of local places to visit.

Rooms are separate from the main building and so are quiet and private. The room was large and comfortable and the bed was very large. The staff are the owners and were very friendly and helpful. We had booked dinner and it was amazing although there is no choice of menu. There was a choice for breakfast which was freshly prepared and excellent. We would definitely stay there again if we are in the area.

We had a great welcome after walking all day on the Pennine Way. The room was comfortable, clean and met our every need.
The evening meal was delicious and ample.
We would definitely recommend High Force Hotel.

Stayed in the Hadrian Suite which is a beautifully designed space, very impressive. Very warm welcome and friendly service throughout. Comfortable bar area downstairs with great dining options. Definitely recommend if you're visiting this stunning part of England – they will help with guidance for walks and dark skies star spotting etc.

I stayed in the annex luxury apartments which are fantastic. Amazing comfortable king size bed. Luxury bathroom and living area - like a suite set up.
Two large TVs and kitchen - the sort of place you would buy.
