The Kings Arms Hotel

Traditional pub and well worth a visit. Friendly staff accommodated us for a table on a Sunday evening and food was superb. Good portions, freshly prepared and steak and ale pie was the best I have had. Sounds silly to say but was full of very tender, melt in your mouth steak unlike so many I have had before. Vegetables cooked to perfection and chips really tasty. Great dessert menu. Just wish I had had room to try one.

We stayed here, in a family room, for one night. The room was very clean and there was the usual touches you'd expect - tea/coffee/biscuits/toiletries, etc. There was a TV (albeit very small).

We ate an evening meal in the restaurant where the choice and quality of food was excellent, and the service was great too. Our breakfast was, again, delicious.

The village is quiet and there's nothing to do there but it's a short drive to Appleby and Penrith.

The price was very competitive and we would definitely stay here again for one night if the journey warranted it, but we personally wouldn't stay for a longer holiday. However I would recommend it to anyone.

What an amazing place! Stopped en route to Glasgow, the service and food were both amazing. We also stayed on our way home and were welcomed like friends. Highly recommend 👍

My car broke down outside of this pub. Baring in mind there are no signs up stating private property out front baring in mind I’m from Harrogate I’ve been waiting for close to six hours for a recovery to come for the owner of this pub coming to the window of the property saying if I don’t move my car he is gonna come outside and give me a seeing too because the recovery truck would be loud I don’t believe it was necessary the way he spoke to me and would like to make people aware of the type of man that runs this business

Checked their website for availability and called the hotel to confirm if it was available for 1 night.The receptionist, who picked up the phone said that no rooms are available.. I told her that I just saw it online. She checked again, then said that yes, we have a room available. When I mentioned that we are family of 3 and travelling with a cat, she said that she needs to check with her manager. After checking, she said that we only allow dogs, but not cats. I am sorry, your website states that it is PET friendly, and a definition of a pet in English language is : a domestic or tamed animal kept for companionship or pleasure.
But apparently, thus hotel never heard of that.
We traveled all around Scotland and Northern England with our cat staying at pet friendly hotels and never had any problems. So change pet friendly, to dog, otherwise you are misleading people to give them false information. Thank God I didn’t book your hotel online only to be turned down.

My husband and I stayed at the kings arms for 2 nights this week, the room was lovely and clean and the food was lovely, the people were lovely and friendly and made us feel very welcome, we will definitely be back.

Called in for an evening meal with my partner. We were greated by lovely friendly staff members and made to feel very welcome. Food was excellent and we had three courses.
Very good standard of cooking, excellent portions and reasonably priced. We were very impressed and would highly recommend a stop here.

Great food, staff were really friendly.
Owners were alittle grumpy.
Room great.
