Introduction

The Thorneyfield aims to cater for the needs of all visitors within the confines of a traditional Victorian built 3 storey mid terraced building.

We currently are a 6 bedroomed bed and breakfast house with possible plans to add a further guest room.
The following statement is a summary of our provision; if you have any specific questions then please feel free to call us and we will do our best to help you.

Pre-Arrival

• There is a bus stop between 200 - 250 meters from the entrance along a level path. There are frequent buses to Grasmere and Keswick at one end of the journey, or to Kendal and Lancaster at the other, with frequent stops along the route.
• There is a bus timetable at the bus stop and we also have a copy of the timetable displayed on our notice board.
• The nearest rail way station is Windermere which is 4½ miles away with frequent services to Oxenholme (Lake District), which is the main line station.
• Our website shows pictures of all of our rooms, which are situated on the first and second floors. Although the stairs are wide with a gentle climb, disabled guests should bear this in mind.
• You can contact the Thorneyfield Guest House by either telephone or email

Arrival & Car Parking Facilities

• We offer our guests free parking via a combination of a parking space to the rear of the property, off street parking permits and car park permits.
• Both the off street parking and car parking options are situated close to the guest house.
• Assistance with luggage is offered to all guests.
• The entrance to Thorneyfield is accessed directly off the main road and by climbing three steps. At night the front of the house is lit by floodlights and there are lamps at each side of the front door to illuminate this for our guests.
