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.

Superb country pub, restaurant and accommodation. Ideal location to get out and about by car or enjoy local walks from the doorstep in the countryisde along the River Eden and local fells.

roaring fire,coal and logs

Candles glowing all around

Don`t laugh at my poem I wrote it when sitting on a leather settee in front of a super log fire. We had 3 lovely nights in this magical place.. A family run business , all very nice people,.

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
