Cross Keys Inn

It had everything in one place. The staff were friendly and helpful. There was lots for the kids to do, the toy chest, darts, ping pong and the outside play area were well used 😂. Food was lovely and pizzas were that big we had leftovers for breakfast 😋. The rooms had everything we needed and the bed was really comfortable. We have booked again already!

We stayed in one of the Chalets , found it very quiet , peaceful , clean and comfortable . Was an exellent base for exploring lake district and the yorkshire dales . Was handy because close to motorway . Breakfast was brilliant couldn't ask for better. Very friendly pub and staff .

A very convenient place to stop off for a night on our journey north. Easy to find, with plenty of parking, and room to bring our pedal cycles indoors, out of the rain. Friendly service, good food and drink, a comfortable room - just what we needed. After breakfast we went for a stroll. In the church next-door is a fascinating exhibition about Tebay in the days of the railway. What changes the valley has seen over the years!

Our second time staying at the Cross Keys and it was an absolute delight. The staff were accommodating, even as late arrivers they made sure we were fed and watered - 30minutes after the kitchen closing with a delicious freshly made pizza each! Set in a beautiful location on a quiet road with quick access onto the motorway - a perfect stop off on our way to Scotland. We've been back twice now, first as a pitstop on our honeymoon and again on our wedding anniversary and we'll definitely be back again. Bed was exceptionally comfortable, bedding clean and soft and the rooms spacious and comfortable. All the rooms have such a rustic charm, fitting of the age of the inn which only makes the stay even more special.

This was a stop over on our way back down from Scotland. It was in a great location for us, just popping off the motorway. We were met with a very warm welcome and were able to check in straight away. We had our evening meal at the Chequers, which totally exceeded our expectation. Breakfast was of the same very high standard and cooked to order. Also, very dog-friendly.
