8 handpicked places to stay

Sedbergh's accommodation is on a small, low-key scale that suits the town: a handful of traditional pubs with rooms and family-run bed and breakfasts sit within a short walk of Main Street's bookshops, cafes and the start of the footpaths up into the Howgill Fells. Staying centrally means you can spend an evening in one of the town's pubs or restaurants and still be on the fell paths within minutes the next morning, without needing a car for the day.
Beyond the town itself, options widen out into converted farmhouses, cottages and small guesthouses scattered across the surrounding countryside, from the lower slopes of the Howgills to the quieter valleys of Dentdale and Garsdale. These tend to suit visitors who want peace and a view over walkable convenience, and many make a comfortable base for day trips further into the Yorkshire Dales National Park or across to the Lake District, both within easy reach thanks to Sedbergh's position just off the M6 and the A684.
Because Sedbergh is a small town rather than a major tourist centre, choice can be more limited than in busier Dales or Lakeland towns, and rooms can book up around the town's book festivals and during peak summer walking season, so it is worth planning ahead if a particular pub or B&B has caught your eye.
