Luxury hotel set in 1.5 acre walled garden, award-winning food, superb conference/wedding facilities

Temple Sowerby House Hotel is located in an idyllic Eden Valley spot, just 15 minutes from beautiful Lake Ullswater. The Eden Valley is a renowned area of outstanding natural beauty between the English Lake District and the Pennines, making Temple Sowerby the perfect venue for a relaxing break. The Eden Valley offers a choice of both indoor and outdoor activities, and is particularly perfect for walking and cycling. The property dates back to 1727, and offers guests a choice of 12 individually styled bedrooms. Guests can expect elegant reception rooms, blazing log fires, a peaceful walled garden and award-winning food, accompanied by a hotel ethos of quality hospitality and personal service.

The charming traditional walled gardens stretch to around 2 acres in all and include a croquet lawn and an old greenhouse, home to an even older peach tree, which still produces fruit in late summer. Why not relax on the Terrace, which makes an idyllic spot for afternoon tea or pre-dinner drinks during the summer months. The a la carte dinner menu features local and seasonal produce including a selection of herbs, fruits and vegetables from the garden and is complimented by a personally compiled extensive wine list. The Restaurant at Temple Sowerby House has been awarded an AA Two Rosette Dining Award for culinary excellence. Choose the Temple Sowerby House Hotel for your romantic Lake District getaway. Dinner by candlelight in The Restaurant will be a highlight of your stay. The range of superb local produce includes lamb from the fells, beef and pork from local farms, venison from local estates, freshly caught seafood and locally produced cheeses. We cater for special diets, and would request prior notice from guests. The hotel is working in partnership with Greystoke Castle to offer guests a variety of activities for you to enjoy over a weekend activity break or midweek break. Quad Biking, Clay Target Shooting, Fly Fishing, Musket Firing, and Abseiling are just a few of the outdoor activities available.
