“A real gem”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 June 2011

A most enjoyable stay. Excellent accommodation which exceeded our expectations. The food was very good and reasonably priced. The owners were very helpful and we would certainly stay there again.

“Great Hospitality!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 June 2011

This was our first trip to Sandford, but it certainly won't be our last! What a genuinely friendly village with a wonderful, traditional local pub and restaurant that is pet-friendly, welcoming and the hub of the local community.

“The hidden Jewel in Cumbria's Crown”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 May 2009
1
person found this review helpful

What a find ! The Sandford Arms is a beautiful Inn hidden in a lovely quiet village 2 minutes off the A66. Very secure parking, first class food and accommodation. It is close to Penrith, but after staying here, I would never stay in Penrith. The food really is faultless, the staff are really friendly and the building itself is just beautiful. If you like your real ale, this is heaven, the beer is just fantastic, kept and served to perfection. I will find any excuse to return to the Sandford Arms. I will be publishing a short video on the news page of our web site, here you will be able to see the beautiful Sandford Arms Inn. www.MicksGuns.com
