The Experience

High in the fells, Sedbergh is unpretentious and friendly, full of independent shops and this welcoming coaching inn. Run by the same family since the 1980s, the Dalesman is fire-warmed and cosy – the perfect bolthole for exploring the Yorkshire Dales.

Generous bedrooms are upstairs and down, big beds are dressed in Hungarian goose down, one has a roll top in the room, another a double walk-in shower. Zoffany wallpapers brighten each space as you snuggle under ancient beams. A hub for the community with locals and visitors enjoying excellent meals, from breakfast through to seasonal dinners, served in the bar and dining area. Tuck into warm croissants, homemade granola, full English and more. Stay for local-breed meats from the owner’s smokery, washed down with a gin and tonic from the family’s micro-distillery.

Stride the hills, discover waterfalls, wander the valleys and heather-clad moorlands, breathe the freshest air.

Reviews

The Dalesman in Sedbergh is a delightful, cosy and welcoming inn, offering luxurious accommodation and a delicious dining experience. What a great place for an overnight stay on the Dales Way, or why not spend a few extra days here to explore the area. Take a step back in time and wander the cobbled streets of the town before returning to the warm hospitality of The Dalesman.

Location

The neighbourhood

In the heart of the Yorkshire Dales National Park, surrounded by dramatic countryside, walks for all levels start from the door. Walkers can hop on the Dales Way, a long distance footpath running from Ilkley to Bowness-in-Windermere, while cyclists will love the Cumbria Cycle Way. The Lakes are 30 minutes; visit the towns of Kirkby Lonsdale, Hawes and Kendal.

Local points of interest from Mike Garnett

We're in the heart of the Howgills. A hidden gem in Cumbria, our very own mini Lake District.
Sedbergh Market on every Wednesday morning/afternoon.
We're a town famously known for books. Plenty of bookshops and book swaps area in Sedbergh to keep you busy.
There is an abundance of flat ground walks and challenging fell walks to do in the Howgills. Beautiful waterfalls too. Cautley Spout is the largest cascading waterfall in England (only a five-minute drive away).
As well as The Dalesman, there are lovely places to find lunch or dinner. From pubs, restaurants and cafés, we have them all. If you fancy a drink, there are a couple of bars in town too.
We are the middle point between the Lake District and the Yorkshire Dales. Over your stay with us, travel 30 minutes either way to enjoy the best of both worlds.
