Enjoy fantastic food in beautiful surroundings.

 

Carys and Derek are happy to welcome you to The Hayloft.
Come and try some of the delicious home cooked food and enjoy a friendly and relaxed atmosphere in the beautiful surroundings of the Lake District.

             

We look forward to making your stay at Castlerigg Farm become a memorable one.

We have many years experience in the catering trade and are now happy to be amongst fellow campers. While we aim to exceed expectations we want you to feel relaxed in the lovely old barn conversion with its cosy log fire while you enjoy our style of freshly cooked home made food.

 

 

Please check our opening times in Reception window.

  

We are doggy friendly so feel free to bring Rufus in out of the rain as he's more than welcome in our downstairs area. We have a great kids Menu which we cook with the same care and attention as we do with our grown-up Menu. From hand-cut chunky chips to Castlerigg Farm Chutney, we strive to do the simple things as well.

 

At The Hayloft we encourage you to bring a bottle of your favourite tipple as at the moment we don't have a liquor licence. We have a small corkage charge.

 

For all you sightseers and fell walkers we have a selection of packed lunches and picnics to choose from, give us a days notice and we will have it ready for your travels.

 

We also have hot food takeaways for those of you who want to eat in the comfort of your own units. For special occasions we can bake you a cake and hold you a party at The Hayloft.

Feel free to pop in and brows through our Menu as we will also have a Specials Board.

 

Please be advised we can only except cash payments.

 

We look forward to meeting you and catering for your culinary needs.
