The full story

About Queen's Head Askham

Queen's Head Askham is a smart village inn in Askham near Penrith, within a short walk of Askham Hall and well placed for Lowther, Ullswater and the Eden Valley. The property combines characterful bedrooms with a restaurant, bar and terrace, creating a more informal and affordable alternative to a full country-house hotel. Current Booking.com information lists family rooms, accessible facilities and pet-friendly stays on request. Its position near the M6 and A6 also makes it useful for one-night stops that still feel rooted in a genuine Cumbrian village.

Before you book: room types, dining times, spa access, pet policies, parking arrangements and package inclusions can change. Check the current property and Booking.com terms for your dates before travelling.
