Offering an Italian restaurant, Villa Bianca B&B is located in the centre of Penrith. It offers bed and breakfast accommodation and free WiFi.

The inn is 6.8 km from Whinfell Forest. Newcastle International Airport is 79 km away.

Massively positive place. The owners are ridiculously helpful at all times. There is a restaurant downstairs which is lovely - they do massive pizzas - see my photo. Rooms are functional and very good value for money. Very comfy beds, electric shower and tea and coffee provided in the room. Parking is available 4 min walk away, quite literally not really even that. It is £5 for 10 hours so pretty much £5 a day you can stop outside and upload the car with ease. Parking is in bluebell car park. Breakfast is available - great quality. We had offers of cereal, fruit, yoghurt and then cooked breakfast as well amazing value. It is served 0800-0900. Coffee was also greattttt quality - and I like my coffee!

    In my opinion, the most traditional of the 3 'inns' in the village, and all the better for it! A relaxed (and popular) bar area serving good food & drink, friendly & efficient staff and a fabulous breakfast to set you up for a day on the fells. Decent room with all facilities you would expect. Would certainly stay here again.

    We had a last minute change to our accommodation requirements whereby I needed to add my grandchildren into our room. As we had a sofa bed within the room the manager readily organised. No fuss - just "yes we can" - so refreshing. Also gave us a parking space, All staff were so helpful and delightful, Absolutely pleasure. No hesitation to return or recommend. Dinner and Breakfast were excellent.
