Ormsgill Inn

Barrow in Furness

Furness Abbey is 3.2 km from Ormsgill Inn. Walney Island is 3.4 km from the property, while the edge of the Lake District National Park is 17.5 km away. Absolutely everything. We cannot fault this property and highly recommend it. The location, the facilities, the breakfast and the staff are excellent. It was by far the best B&B we stayed in during our whole trip.

Featuring a bar, the property is located within 32 km of Trough of Bowland. The property is non-smoking and is set 12 km from Kendal Castle.

At the inn, rooms are fitted with a wardrobe, a flat-screen TV, a private bathroom, bed linen and towels. The guidebook in the room was very helpful and provided information about things to do in the Lake District area, by foot or car. I took a 45 minute walk around the nearby farm and enjoyed quiet, scenic views. The unit we stayed in consisted of a large living room, full kitchen, bedroom, and bath with shower and tub. We had dinner and breakfast in the restaurant, both meals were scrumptious. There was a great vibe at dinner and it was clear that this is not just a spot for guests, but also popular with the locals. Parking was available just across the street. We would definitely stay here again.
