Hotels in Armathwaite

59 handpicked places to stay

Photo © Robbo, Google Maps

Hotel choice directly in Armathwaite is modest, reflecting the village's small size, but that is part of its charm for visitors seeking a quiet Eden Valley base rather than a resort town. The Fox & Pheasant Inn offers rooms above its bar and restaurant, putting guests a few steps from a real fire and a decent pint after a day on the riverside paths, while a small number of local bed and breakfasts and self-catering cottages fill out the options within the village itself. Anyone wanting a wider spread of hotels — from budget chains to more characterful country-house options — will find considerably more choice in Carlisle, around nine miles north, or in Penrith to the south, both easily reached by car or by the Settle-Carlisle railway that stops in the village. Wetheral and other Eden Valley villages nearby also offer additional guesthouse and hotel options for those wanting to stay close to the river without being in a city centre. Wherever you base yourself, Armathwaite rewards a short drive or train ride back for an evening in one of its two village pubs, and its position just off the A6 and close to the M6 means it works equally well as a one-night stop between the Lake District and the Scottish Borders, or as a base for several days spent walking, birdwatching and exploring the wider Eden Valley at an unhurried pace.
