Superb location. Lovely spot to walk the dog easily. Walking distance to a nice pub. Hosts were fantastic. Made me and the dog feel very welcome. I would definitely stay here again.

A perfect spot to enjoy the Lakes whilst only minutes from the M6. Quiet location and I had views into the countryside.
Lovely fresh breakfast and perfect leaf tea.
The hosts couldn’t have been better and went out of their way to help me.

I travel up and down the M6 to/from Hereford to Oban fairly regularly. It’s a long an arduous journey particularly in the winter. Westmorland is a godsend of a hotel almost exactly half way and is an oasis of comfort and warmth literally at the side of the motorway. I love the convenience, the comfort, the friendliness and the fact you feel you are on the moors and a million miles from a motorway. You could not wish for a better night stop to recharge your batteries. Be sure to ask about the secret road between north and south services especially for hotel customers- so you can easily access the hotel when travelling south (because hotel is on M6 North)

Tebay services…. what a fabulous cocooning experience!
Tebay services…. what a fabulous cocooning experience! I came off the M6 on a wild wet dark evening and stepped into simple luxury and contemporary cosiness - I left the next morning early, completely restored.
I was journeying from the borders of scotland to the south coast and realised I’d run out of energy for the drive- an unplanned stop- but having experienced sitting by the open fire with my book after a delicious simple supper, slept in a divine comfortable bed, a nice hot bath -a delicious breakfast - i’ll make the time to stop here EVERY time i pass from now - special thanks for the gluten free and vegan options tebay!

There was a well stocked farm shop within walking distance, a great pub which was reasonably priced with a good menu. The food was delicious, it had an outdoor beer garden and lit up seating area, a play park for the kids, it played great music and had a good atmosphere, everyone was so friendly.
Tebay has many local walks, it is in the perfect location, in between the Lakes and Yorkshire Dales.

Central location, ideal for exploring the area.
Central location, ideal for exploring the area. Hotel very good. Service top class. Plenty of breakfast options. Can eat at service station at any time. Good variety to choose from. Recommend the farm shop. Food any local crafts available.
I found The Old School house very relaxed and friendly, with good information about where to eat in the evening. I felt very safe as a single woman travelling on my own. The room was very comfortable and the en suite had an excellent shower.
There was a good choice at breakfast and well cooked.
I would definitely consider staying in the future, especially as Tebay is in a very useful location when travelling further afield on M6.
I booked the single room as was only there alone for one night stopover and wasn't sure how I'd sleep in a single bed. But it was extremely comfortable and homely, a nice temperature and quiet in the room. I had a great night's sleep which was all I was bothered about really. Owner kindly made my breakfast to go as I left early on. Friendly owners.
B&B is easy to find right in front of you as you come into Tebay.
Our third stay, perfectly located with easy parking and MWay access en route to Scotland.
We take three rooms, have a fabulous dinner in the locally supplied restaurant, indulge in a full breakfast and use our discount voucher to stock up at the farm shop.
The staff are always friendly and welcoming and we will be back.
This is a lovely hotel which has stunning moorland views. It is located just off the M6 but has no traffic noise and plenty of parking. The staff are friendly and the rooms are clean and comfortable. There were limited options on the evening menu when we stayed (especially for vegetarians) but the food was good.
Warm and welcoming. A great place to enjoy superb local food and a good nights sleep. The hotel is perfectly placed after 6 hours on the road and before the next 6 hours the following day! All the staff were delightful and the room was comfortable and clean. The facilities for dogs are very good indeed.
Great location, approx 5-10minutes from Tebay Services and the M6. Remote location with plenty of privacy. Loved the open plan living room and kitchen facilties. The design of the barn, the games room and sauna/steam room all very good features. The design / decor were impressive and well thought out.
Spacious room in a convenient location for being on the way to the lakes. Unlike other hotels in this price bracket, it had been decorated more recently than 1970 which was a pleasant surprise! The veggie breakfast set me up for a trip to swim in the waterfalls recommended by the friendly owners.
The location was great to travel to Scotland it was clean the beds were comfortable which is usually not the case in most hotels. They were great dealing with my disability and allergies great value for money
We use the hotel as a halfway point on the way to Scotland, the breakfast was lovely and hot but the portion a bit small and the cold buffet was slightly lacking in selection.
Great location for breaking a long journey, in beautiful countryside. Welcomes pets. Lovely breakfast . No evening meal, but the good pub nearby sorted that very well .
Excellent location and very good locally sourced food. Scrambled Egg and salmon fur breakfast was superb. All food well presented and visually pleasing.
