Great location in Penrith - easy walk to pubs nearby
Good that there is a private car park
Room was probably most spacious we’ve had (stayed in 2 B&Bs in Penrith already) and was very clean, had lots of storage space, TV, tea and coffee and bathroom was good size too.
Breakfast was lovely and Alison changed it to suit me (sorry I’m awkward 🤣) - took out anything I didn’t like as I’m a picky eater. Veggie options and nice scrambled eggs always a plus!

Temple Sowerby was a lovely quiet village with great views of the Pennines. Dog walk to a local National Trust property was easy to find. Lovely pub, The King’s Arms just along the road from where we stayed served lovely evening meals too.

Temple Sowerby is great walking territory and very handy for Penrith where there were many tempting places to eat. Dining at The King's Arms however was a good decision and we especially enjoyed the breakfast.

A very old, unusual village with a maypole that was about 40 foot high. A pleasant area to walk around. It was very easy to travel to other ares. Acorn House a NT property was close by with interesting gardens. The Kings Arms served excellent food.

A very pleasant place to stay .
A very pleasant place to stay .Staff are friendly pleasant and helpful.Food was excellant. Only thing to let the village down was the great lack of a village shop,not only for the locals ,passing trade,and guests of both inns in the village. I think it could be a goldmine and would add considerably to enhance a stay in Temple Sowerby.

The location is in a quiet village on the edge of the lakes and if you want you can easily drive there as the main road in to the lakes is 5 minutes drive.
But if you want to stop local there is footpaths in all directions and we would if stopped longer would have explored.
The main plus for us was that in the future and more time it would be a great area to explore more and relax in if you want.
This is a wonderful small hotel in a beautiful location. Lovely comfortable rooms, tastefully decorated with every possible amenity. The manager, a delightful Polish lady, did everything to make us feel welcome and comfortable. Dinner was outstanding (her home made cheese-cake is to die for!) and breakfast was equally good. This was the last night of a two week holiday in the Lake District and Scotland and could not have been better - easily the best accommodation of the trip (and by no means the most expensive.) Simply outstanding.
What a perfect & lovely house. I had the best nights sleep in a hotel for many years. My room was a good size spotlessly clean & the bathroom (although not massive) was appropriate, clean & warm.
The breakfast was excellent & my only downside was the temperature of the plate (this is a pet subject for me). I eat relatively quickly but even so my cooked breakfast was quite cool by the time I'd finished (it all by the way).
All this for LESS than the price of a Premier Inn - Perfection!
Everything. This far exceeded our expectations. This was our dog's first stay in a hotel and he was treated like royalty! The room was spotless and the bedding immaculate. Breakfast was amazing - and we were lucky enough to be able to sit outside as the weather was so good. This place is perfect - for people and their dogs. The beautiful garden is walled so our labrador was free to run.
The hotel is quaint with an old worldliness. The staff were very friendly and efficient. The breakfast was excellent. The room was clean and comfortable. I particularly liked the deadlock on the bedroom door: impossible to lock yourself out or forget your key.
We had a very enjoyable stay along with our small dog & were made very welcome. All staff were extremely friendly & helpful.
Food was delicious. We will certainly recommend the Kings Arms at Temple Sowerby.
My colleague informed me that the hotel was very comfortable. Staff very friendly and hospitable, in regards
to the wifi, he found the perfect place to sit on a very comfy sofa.
The management clearly enjoy running the hotel. The room was large and airy -- very comfortable!
The garden was super for exercising our dog.
Breakfast was very well presented.
