Walking weekend deals

The countryside around the Fat Lamb is some of the best walking territory in the UK, and from time to time we like to encourage people to share it by organising an impromptu walking weekend special offer.

Below is the last walking package we ran, as an example - if you are a member of a walking group and want to arrange a visit then please get in touch and we'll arrange a package to suit you!

Walking deal

Arrive in time for dinner on Tuesday. On Wednesday after breakfast, leave for a low level guided walk of the local area through Smardale Nature Reserve (pictured above), nothing too strenuous, with a packed lunch to keep your strength up. Take dinner on Wednesday night at whatever time suits you best and afterwards relax and unwind in the bar. After breakfast the following morning explore the area at your leisure and return to The Fat Lamb for lunch before departure.

If you would like to take us up on the offer please either call on 015396 23242 or email to reserve a room.

We look forward to hearing from you.

    You’re going to be hearing a lot more from Mally and Freddy, our super friendly management couple down at the Kings Arms – they run the show down there and have been doing a great job of it. It also seems talent runs in the family! Mally’s sister came to visit a while back, and did these lovely sketches of Temple Sowerby – including our beautiful old Kings Arms! We’re so pleased with them we’re going to try to use them on the new menu (we’ll keep you posted on that).
  • Mike & Paul's Dessert Tour (Feb 2013)
    The next few years will see the Fat Lamb (and our sister establishment the Kings Arms at Temple Sowerby) gently coaxed along towards a brighter future. Not that there’s anything wrong with the present, but the times they are a-changing. We’ll be thinking about ways to make both inns as lovely for our customers in the years to come as they have been for everyone who stayed with us over the last few decades. Obviously, we couldn’t just launch into this without a thorough review of the marketplace, so OF COURSE we had to embark on a full research expedition – ”The Dessert Tour”...
