Description Bongate House Appleby A very warm and friendly welcome awaits you from Mary & John Geary at Bongate House, where you will find quality bed and breakfast accommodation in a fine Georgian House. Conveniently located on the outskirts of the attractive Eden Valley town of Appleby-in-Westmorland, the house has extensive gardens with fine views over the River Eden and Appleby Castle. Here at Bongate there is a large comfortable residents lounge with widescreen TV, DVD and Freeview. An ideal area for relaxation before venturing out to the delights of Appleby and beyond. We have about one acre of garden for your enjoyment, to explore at your leisure. Stroll between the ancient box hedges to the raised goldfish pond and patios where you can sit and enjoy the sun, or perhaps wander down to the end of the garden and talk to the goats. Here you will find fine views of Appleby Castle and the River Eden. Bongate House attracts guests from all over the world, and is popular with walkers, cyclists, those touring the North of England - and those who just want to get away and relax! Accommodation Bongate House was built about 1760, in the style of many large farmhouses of that period. Over the years it has been extended and now is quite a sizeable property. The house was completely refurbished in early 2007, enhancing the quality and comfort of the accommodation, but still preserving the "old farmhouse" qualities. We have nine bedrooms, comprising a mixture of double-bedded, twin bedded and single-bedded rooms, five of which are ensuite.Some rooms can accommodate families. We also have a cot available. All the rooms are pleasantly decorated, and each has colour television and tea / coffee making facilities. There is a luxury room which can be a super-king double or twin (zip and link bed) with a large balcony overlooking the garden. We also have an en-suite ground floor room with a sitting area. This can be set up as a twin or super-king sized double bedded room and is ideal for people with mobility problems. Breakfast is served in our spacious dining room. Our farmhouse style breakfasts are always a favourite with our guests, and are prepared using locally purchased produce. The breakfast sausages are made to a secret recipe in the town by our butcher's wife. We also offer a vegetarian option if required. Getting married?  We can provide all facilities for wedding receptions, including a marquee in the garden.
