Scales Farm Country Guest House
About
Nestling on the slopes of Blencathra, 6 miles from Keswick and with spectacular views across the central fells, Scales Farm offers quality accommodation and a superb location to explore the Lake District. The 17th century farmhouse features a welcoming traditional beamed lounge with a wood-burning stove and breakfast room available to customers at all times, ample private parking, secure bicycle storage and drying room.
All our bedrooms are en-suite with TV/DVD/DAB, Wi-Fi, fridge and tea/coffee making facilities. We have one room suitable for our mobility impaired guests. Three of our six rooms are dog friendly with direct access to the garden and our own paddock.
Breakfast includes a buffet, full English breakfast or alternatives. Packed lunches provided on request.
Scales Farm is an ideal location, with many classic walks and the coast to coast cycle path accessible from our front door. With the popular White Horse pub, located next door, you can enjoy a relaxing lunch or evening meal of Lakeland food, drink and views. Located just off the A66, Scales Farm is easy to reach by road, just 10 minutes from M6. Complementary pick up from Penrith main line railway station is available for guests arriving by train.
Scales Farm has been awarded the Trip Advisor Excellence Award for 6 years running 2013 - 2019.
