If you’re looking for the finest accommodations in Lanchester, you need to look no further than the Lanchester Station House!
Immaculate, comfortable and inviting - this property exceeded our highest expectations. Our host Daryl made sure that all of our needs were met, and went above and beyond to ensure that our stay was memorable.
The included breakfast was outstanding, and included fresh fruit and juice along with a hot option.
I can’t say enough about this property - with 3 weeks in the U.K., this was our best stay!
The high quality linens and the comfortable bed made for a very comfortable sleep.
If you’re in the Lanchester area, book into the Station House - you won’t be disappointed!

About the host
Hosted by Host
Station House, Lanchester is home to me and the gorgeous pooch Iggy. After many years of living in the south, I was lucky enough to find Station House and returned to my home county and the village my parents so loved. Having dreamed of one day of leaving the hustle and bustle of office life and owning a Bed and Breakfast, Station House was the perfect home for me. Built in 1852 and formerly Lanchester Railway Station it has been refurbished into a wonderful home with additional sumptuous accommodation where guests can relax in comfort and style. Nestled in the heart of the village, Station House hosts a maximum of 6 guests, two double Bed and Breakfast rooms and one holiday cottage for two, so you will always be provided with the personal service and exceptional hospitality you deserve.
