Extract from Sawday's Special Venues
"The arrival at Greystoke Village is the perfect end to a spectacular journey from Windermere via Kirkstone Pass and Ullswater – as any keen cyclist around here will tell you . . . . . . .
The main meeting room is to one side, stone built, high ceilings, deep window ledges and wooden lintels, seating up to 12 in its airy, well lit interior.
On sunny days you can enjoy lunch in the garden (watching the local race horses file past on their way to the gallops) , but it’s also a treat to tuck into Annie’s tasty home cooked meals in the cheery farmhouse kitchen –
not to mention her fresh cakes and biscuits.
Five miles from Penrith Station, just off the A66 and easily reached from the M6 by car or bike
, yet far far away from any impersonal, corporate vibe.
A super little place run by the friendliest host."
