Mosedale End Farm B&B (opens in new tab) guest house
about 0.3 km from the start, in a straight line
The only property in this cluster with a fetchable page, and it answers most of what a family arriving off Carrock Fell needs: a child-capable room with its own capacity stated, its own parking yard, an EV charger, picnic food on site and a breakfast that does not tie you to a sitting. It is also 260 m from the start and names the exact fells these two routes climb. The two things it will not do - dogs, and any child outside The Grainery Suite - are both stated in its own words.
Worth knowing: “Sorry we do not take DOGS or offer help the farmer or work experience days”
The farm runs a set of free extras aimed squarely at children, and they are seasonal in a way that clashes: the lambing shed opens to guests mid-March to April with a live camera into it, while the sheepdog demonstration stops for exactly those two months. Year-round there is a bag of corn for the hens and egg collecting with JoAnne Fell, a walks leaflet with a sheep identification quiz, and cameras on the farm's own badger sett, nest boxes and cow shed viewable on a borrowed guest tablet.
