Richard & Sayfon Atkinson invite you to spend your holiday in the Lake District at 'Shemara'. Our aim is to make your stay with us as comfortable and relaxing as possible. Cleanliness and hospitality at 'Shemara' is second to none as shown by our Welcome Host Certificate.

We are situated within a stones throw of the town centre with its restaurants, bars and shops and only ten minutes walk from Derwentwater 'Queen of the English Lakes'.

Breakfast is served in our cosy dining room and ranges from Continental to full Cumbrian to kippers, or a vegetarian option, & we also offer a range of speciality tea, coffee and herbal drinks.

In the evenings the dining room is open for you to sample Sayfon's authentic Thai cooking (for a sample menu please click here)

All of our seven bedrooms have views of the surrounding fells with the front facing rooms having views of the Borrowdale and Newlands fells and the rear facing rooms overlooking Skiddaw and Latrigg. We have private parking for 4 cars and a public car park is situated directly opposite the Guest House which is free overnight.

We are sure that once you have stayed at 'Shemara' you will return each time you visit the Lake District.
