About Wheelgate
Wheelgate suits travellers who want the Lake District on their doorstep without any fuss - walkers, cyclists and anyone happy to base themselves in Torver rather than a busier town. It's a straightforward B&B with en-suite rooms, drinks available in the room, and breakfast to set you up before a day on the fells or the water.
There's a bar on site along with outdoor seating and a garden for winding down, plus a picnic area and packed lunches for those heading out for the day. Practical extras include free on-site parking, 24 hour reception, luggage storage and free WiFi, and the property also works as a wedding venue, with a bridal suite for couples marrying nearby.
Torver itself puts fishing, horse riding, cycling routes, walking trails and watersports within easy reach, and there's a pub, bar and restaurant nearby for evenings when you'd rather not cook. It's a practical base for getting out into the Cumbrian countryside rather than a destination in itself.
