Here at Riverside Guest House, we want to make sure your break is a memorable experience from the moment you walk in. We're so fortunate to be located in the heart of the Lake District with everything it has to offer on our doorstep.
To help you get the most from your trip, Riverside co-owner Diney keeps a journal that includes local attractions and events, and some recommended walks in the local area, as well as some useful recipes for you to take home.
Our guests love taking some cake on their walks and this is one of the ones that we are are asked to provide the recipe for the most. So, here it is. Now you can enjoy this delicious cake at home, with the extra pride of knowing you made it yourself.
