New Covid-19 Policies

Whilst we are delighted that we are moving away from the restrictions that have impacted us all during this time, we are conscious that Covid has not gone away and with this in mind we have decided to leave some safety measures in place to protect our guest and our staff.

We will be wearing face coverings and politely request that our guest continue to wear them while moving around the establishment.
Customers will be seated in the restaurant and we will continue with table service inside and online ordering system in our beer garden
The sanitisation points still will be dotted around the premises
The screens at our tills will remain in place
We will still do the Ozone treatment of our bedrooms prior to your arrival as well as regular cleaning of high touch points and through clean of the tables between dinning guests

We hope that you will respect our decision to protect our staff and customers. As we head into a busy summer holiday period, please stay safe everyone and we look forward to welcoming you all at the Horse and Farrier and the Salutation soon.

Closed due to Cumbria Tier 4 Restrictions

Cumbria has moved to tier 4 so sadly once again we have to shut the Horse & Farrier. We will however, continue with a takeout business Friday Saturday and Sunday initially and more if there is the demand.

We are so sorry that we have had to cancel our planned new year special meal and disappoint so many customers but we are sure everybody understands this is not in our control.

We hope with the vaccines available and the lockdown stopping the spread of the virus that we will return to normal in 2021 hopefully by Easter when we look forward to welcoming all our customers back.

In the meantime watch the website for updates and we look forward to welcoming you back soon.

Horse & Farrier Refurbishment

We are delighted to announce the completion of our recent refurbishment here at the Horse & Farrier.

We are delighted to introduce to our accommodation offering two terrific new suites; the Blencathra and the Saddleback. Our suites retain all the charm of a country coaching inn whilst introducing a fresh new design and are perfect for family breaks and romantic getaways. In addition, our other seven bedrooms have all been updated to the same high standards with king size and twin options available.

During our reshape here at the Horse & Farrier, we’ve increased and enhanced our dining space by extending into what was the adjoining cottage. Immense care and attention has gone into the planning process, partly due to our Grade II buildings listing, but also our dedication to keeping the authentic feel of this 17th century traditional Lakeland Inn. We have retained the open fires, comfortable seats and introduced a range of gorgeous fabrics and textures with complementing rustic wooden and stone floors. Our bar area has also been fully refurbished and we’ve created an area that is suitable for private parties and functions.

We've also enhanced our outdoor space introducing a timber covered area, ideal for al fresco dining when the weather is misbehaving!
