Georgian Country Hotel set in beautiful gardens
Located in the unspoilt Eden Valley
Award-winning Restaurant ~ AA Two Rosettes

Temple Sowerby House, built between the early 1700's and the1820's is a mix of classic Georgian style and low, beamed ceilings. The hotel offers a welcoming and relaxed environment for a stay in the scenic Eden Valley. After a day's exploring some of England's finest landscapes, guests can return to the hotel to enjoy a superb dinner in the award-winning Restaurant, where Chef, Ashley Whittaker, produces delicious menus specialising in seasonal produce sourced from local farms and country estates including lamb, venison and delicious regional cheeses. The 12 bedrooms are all individually styled many with views of the pretty gardens or towards Cross Fell, the highest peak in the Pennines. All rooms are very well appointed and superior rooms offer a spa bath or hydrotherapy shower. Elegant lounges with cosy open fires in winter are a perfect setting for an aperitif, whilst in summer, drinks can be enjoyed on the sunny terraces set within two acres of traditional walled gardens.

The pretty village of Temple Sowerby, situated just outside the Lake District National Park, is known as the "Queen of Westmorland Villages" and is ideally located for discovering the unspoilt Eden Valley, the Lake District and the North Pennines, one of the country's largest Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The new bypass of the village has returned Temple Sowerby to a truly peaceful spot, a lovely village to stroll around in the evening sunshine!

Ullswater, perhaps the loveliest of the Lakes, is within 15 minutes' drive, while nearby Penrith marks the start of one of the 'World's Best Drives' (The AA) along the A686 to Corbridge offering spectacular views en-route. Hadrian's Wall, a World Heritage Site and the most important monument built by the Romans in Britain, is a short drive to the north.

Special offers and short breaks are available throughout the year including Easter and Valentines, plus wine tasting weekends. Activity breaks can also be booked, including Quad Biking, Clay Target Shooting, Fly Fishing and Abseiling.

Temple Sowerby House is also the first choice for many people as a stopping off point en-route to Scotland, being the mid point between London and Inverness.

Offering the highest standards of personal service, hospitality and fine cuisine, Temple Sowerby makes an ideal base for exploring this beautiful part of the country.
