Characterful old village pub in Cumbria close, but not too close, to the M6. If like us, you live in the south of England, and are travelling to Scotland by car, you will need somewhere to stay to break your journey. The Strickland Arms is ideal. Very friendly, in a beautiful and quiet part of the UK, overlooked as the Lake District is on the other side of the M6. There are some really lovely English villages. Pub provides excellent food. Comfortable and friendly. Although it's only a couple of miles from the M6 you wouldn't know that.

Amazing location, we loved the scenery, the peacefulness, the hut was lovely, well decorated and very cosy and there was a nice sit out area outside, near the lovely horses. The bed was very comfortable, slept very well! Great hosts too, the price for the hut was very fair. We will stay again in future.

Everything, from seeing the location that is so peaceful & quiet, to opening the door of the pod & the bathroom facilities, was just perfect for our visit. 2 black lambs & the 2 lovely horses right outside our pod were just idyllic. To be greeted by 2 scones with butter & jam to have with a much needed coffee, we sat outside enjoyed the scones & the scenery. We loved our short stay, we will definitely be back. Thank you so much.

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.
A small hotel/pub in a quiet village off the A66, this made a good stop for us on the way back from Scotland, but could easily be a base for a longer stay (they seem to specialise in fishing packages).
The staff were friendly. Dinner and breakfast were good, with a good range of choice (will cook a fish if you catch one). The room was cosy and comfortable.
We were really pleased with our find at The House at Temple Sowerby, when looking at a short notice trip away this place was still available and for a more than reasonable rate, especially as it included a lovely breakfast. The garden is beautiful and we loved our stay and was a perfect base.
I stayed one night and found the House at Temple Sowerby a great location for a stopover. The room was clean and well kept and there was a good supply of tea, coffee and water. The bed was very comfortable, I had a restful night followed by a lovely Breakfast.
Lovely homely little hotel. Within easy reach of M6 but still quiet enough to feel like it is quite rural. Situated within pretty village with great walks. The breakfast was superb and delicious. Beautiful bedroom and great bathroom too.
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.
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.
The House of Temple Sowerby had excellent choice of breakfast. Very friendly staff. The room was very clean. Would definitely recommend to family and friends
