John and I would like to welcome you to our charming country guest house, which is located in an idyllic riverside setting surrounded by six acres of beautiful garden and woodland. 

We are situated north of Kendal on the A6, just inside the Lake District National Park, five miles from the market town of Kendal, where there is easy access to the Lake District, Yorkshire Dales, Eden Valley and Scotland.

Low Jock Scar is a special place where one may enjoy the delights of a country retreat without experiencing the usual problems of driving to a rural location. Trees, wildlife and birds help to form a perfect setting to complete the feeling of having found somewhere that is a bit different and off the beaten track.


We offer B&B facilities as well as a self contained holiday cottage.  Choose from Double/Twin bedrooms with fabulous views of the garden.  Four of our bedrooms are en-suite with two bedrooms being on the ground floor.

Low Jock Scar is a very popular venue for groups and can accommodate 10 to 12 people.  Ample off-road parking in the grounds is available for all our guests.

Delicious breakfasts and evening meals (by arrangement) are served in the sun room with beautiful views. The guest house has a residential license and stocks a range of wines, beers, spirits and soft drinks. There is a large comfortable sitting room.  

We are perfectly situated as a base from which to explore this beautiful part of the country.  Kendal is only 10 minutes drive away and has a good range of shops and places of local historical interest.  Beyond that the options are endless and many of them easily manageable within the day.

You are assured of a relaxing atmosphere to unwind as we know the Lakes and surrounding areas well and are more than happy to provide ideas for your holiday with us.


Roslyn and John Flackett
