Anna and Henry Howard
Johnby Hall is a small medieval manor house on the edge of the Lake District National Park. Bed and breakfast guests stay in a seventeenth-century wing of the house (with its own garden entrance, private sitting room, bedroom and bathroom) and come to the sixteenth-century great hall to eat breakfast. We have our own free range pigs and chickens and make jam from our own fruit. Dogs and children are very welcome!
We and our family (and friendly dog) are delighted to welcome you to Johnby Hall.
We are on the edge of the Lake District and also have easy access to the Eden Valley and the Pennines. We are six miles from junctions 40 and 41 of the M6 if you are on your way to or from Scotland.
