The Fat Lamb Country Inn
Trail Ride
We offer one to three nights accommodation with our two day
trail ride at the Fat Lamb Country Inn, which is set in
magnificent countryside offering panoramic views edged by
majestic fells.
The Fat Lamb offers en-suite accommodation. It
has a good reputation for quality food produced on the premises
from fresh local ingredients whenever possible and has a traditional well stocked bar.

Our ride starts at Low Haygarth following a scenic
route through fields, woodland, and open fell to Ravenstonedale where we
