Traditional stone farmhouse and so it follows that rooms have been adapted to their current function. Furniture and fittings are good quality but again have their own history and are appropriate to the accommodation. If this is for you, you will be very comfortable, well and kindly looked after and fed for fattening like one of the family's Herdwick lambs.... More

Perfect, perfect location, friendly welcome and service. With no TV or mobile reception we felt delightfully detached from our stressful work life... as if stepping back in time. The rooms were comfortable and traditional in style. The breakfast was lovely... incredible bacon! Also our packed lunch included Herdwick lamb pasties - delicious! Excellent value for money and an escape from... More

Perfect location, lovely welcome, and no TV or mobile reception - what a treat. in the evening when the walkers dissipate, I had my first proper experience of "quiet" With nothing but the distant sound of river water, it was probably the most peaceful place I have ever been. More

This is a great place to spend the night on the Coast to Coast walk. The rooms are comfortable, and traditional in style. There is a peaceful lounge to relax in, and no TV - perfect.

The Flock Inn tea shop was really great, especially after a day walking. The B&B just across the path was also fabulous. The room was really lovely and quiet, warm and with great en-suite facilites. Breakfast the next morning could not have been better, we were treated like 5-star guests! We would definately stay again and take family or friends. More

Well organised farm B&B with very good breakfasts and substantial packed lunches. The farm tea shop is across the lane. The bedrooms are very clean and fitted with traditional furniture. The views across Borrowdale are suberb. For a true taste of the Lake District it's difficult to beat. More

For lunch I had a Herdwick Lamb pastie which... More

My daughter, my best friend and her teenage daughter and I went to this beautiful B&B for the May Bank Holiday. Upon arrival, we marvelled at the beautiful hills and valleys and the numurous lambs prancing around the fields around us. The farmyard smell was there but after about 5 minutes, we competely forgot about it. We were greeted by... More

We visited during a very wet weekend in the Autumn last year, in fact...so wet that there were flash floods and mountain rescue teams out! It was, thanfully, a freak storm and certainly not the norm in beautiful Borrowdale. Staying at the Yew Tree Farm was a real treat. The wonderful creaking of the oak staircase, the delicious aroma of... More
