Step back into another era at the 14th century Farmers Arms Hotel, where charm, character and hospitality abound.
The hotel prides itself on retaining many of the traditional features and combining them with modern day facilities.
The hotel offers you a relaxing and nostalgic setting with excellent service, fine food and a friendly atmosphere. Whether you are here on business or pleasure, the hotel's aim is to make your stay as relaxed and pleasant as possible. Both travellers and locals alike have enjoyed the warmth and the hospitality of the Farmers Arms Hotel since the 17th century.
At the end of your day you can retire to your cosy en suite bedroom , many with original oak beams and pleasant soft furnishings. Views of the Old Man of Coniston and the Crake Valley can be seen from some of the bedrooms.
The Farmers Arms is a good base for exploring the Lake District National Park and also provides a relaxing setting after a long day's work for business travellers visiting Barrow-in Furness, Ulverston and the surrounding area.
The Farmers Arms has been awarded a 4-star rating for food safety performance by the Cumbria Food Liaison Group, which is an environmental health group.
