Mustn't be basic though. Thats the catch otherwise it'd be bunkhouse-easy(ish!).
Anything good/recommend near a strip of something to do/bars/restuarants that can accommodate circa 6 cost effectively? (cottage? but pricey?)
YHA?

I work for them so not unbiased but they are good value.
I'd do that- these lot wouldn't sadly. Rustic yes, walker/cyclist level stuff -no 🙁
Fair enough, peoples perception of YHA is something we struggle with.
Strip of bars........
In the Lakes.......
There's riding in the woods behind nat west in Swindon
and a travel lodge.
Ring keswick mountain bikes for b+b options
I know.. I'm just thinking of options as for me, a cabin in the middle of nowhere/woods with a bottle of something and a warm fire would be ideal. These lot would be climbing the walls but want the 'Lakes' experience 🙄
Cumbrian Cottages have always been OK for us
