Located close to the A66 at the foot of Blencathra and 5 miles from Keswick, Scales Farm provides a lovely base for walking or visiting the many attractions of both the English Lake District and the North West of England.
Coming from the M6 at Penrith - leave at junction 40 and take the A66 in the direction of Keswick. Exactly 11 miles from the motorway look for a sign for Scales on left and a signboard for the White Horse Inn on your right. Above the signboard there is a silhouette of a white horse. Take the small turning by this sign and Scales Farm is ahead next-door to the White Horse. We have plenty of off-road parking in our private car park at the far end of the buildings. (Entrance right up the tarmac drive).
Coming from the direction of Keswick - take the A66 in the direction of Penrith. Pass Threlkeld village on the left and continue up the hill for 1 1/4 miles. Look for a sign for scales and a signboard for the White Horse Inn on your left. Above the signboard there is a silhouette of a white horse. Take the small turning by this sign and Scales Farm is the first building on your left next to the White Horse. We have plenty of off-road parking in our private car park by the near end of the buildings. (Entrance left up the tarmac drive - this is a tight turn, you may find it easier to turn outside the White Horse and approach the car park from the opposite direction).
Coming by Train - There is a train service into Penrith and from there a regular bus service stops opposite Scales Farm. Alternatively we can provide courtesy transport from Penrith. (Transport is also available to any of the local restaurants/inns in a 5 mile radius)
