Farletonview Tearoom in South Lakeland

Just returned home after spending the Bank Holiday weekend at the Campsite with friends. This was our fourth visit. Thoroughly enjoyed our weekend, the campsite area is very organised & well maintained, with hardstanding level pitches, with an area of grass for each pitch. Everything clean & tidy, and with amazing views of a sizable lake & river running alongside the camping area. Great site for walking your dogs, with bins for waste/rubbish. The showers/toilets were very clean & water was hot. Each had its own sink, toilet & shower in the same area, so it was very convenient. Two of the toilets/showers were shared with the Tea Room/Cafe, and it was asked that they were left clear during the time they were open, for use by the customers, which wasn't a issue, as they were open at all other times of the day. The Tea Room served light meals/snacks & drinks, which were really good with especially good homemade cakes 😊 There were both inside & outside tables. There was also a garden centre with a variety of plants for sale, all being of good quality. We all had a great weekend away, and thought the location was excellent, and was only a short trip to the sites of the Lake District. The lake on site is available for fishing at a charge. My husband says it's for 'fly fishing'. Finally, the staff/owners. They all made us feel very welcome & nothing was too much trouble, so thank you, and we will be back again soon xx

It was only an overnight stay before heading into Windermere so luckily we weren’t there long. Views were lovely but the facilities were something else… two toilets/showers at the back of the cafe which were not clean or usable to any standard. At £30 a night it’s not much to ask for! Then the drinking water taps which were available to caravaners.. the water was cloudy!! We asked two other couples staying on site at the time who said ‘They didn’t notice until then’. No reflection to the cafe as the food looked lovely and our Biscoff Rocky Road was the only positive to our stay! But the campsite needs some serious looking into too. Never again.

My husband and I visited the tearoom today. We thought we would have lunch so we were disappointed that the menu was so limited compared to last year, we had not realised that the menu had changed. I had a mug of soup, didnt realise it didnt come with bread, but the price was only £2.50, I would have paid extra for it if offered bread. I had carrot cake but it didnt have the lovely cream cheese icing you normally get, It was just icing sugar mixed with water, quite boring. My husband had quiche which was very nice.

Absolutely love this little gem, the food is homemade which is a massive bonus, the staff are friendly and nothing is to much. Wouldn't go to another cafe if honest and if you go try the cheesecake best one I've ever had

What a great little tea room. Just what we needed after 95km on the bike. Super views of the fishing lakes and very friendly staff. The coffees were lovely, as was the lemon drizzle cake and currant sugared pie. Defo worth a visit. Many thanks.

Friendly and welcoming cafe serving home made food. We plan our cycle rides around this cafe as it ticks all the boxes. Thank you.

Every time we visit Farleton View team rooms we enjoy the home baked cakes and scones. The quiche is my favourite, as well as the sausage rolls if I want a tasty light lunch. Last night we had a lovely stopover in our Motorhome , beautiful , clean , quite site with friendly helpful owners. Added bonus we watched the fireworks on a distant hill. Quick look round the plants in the morning , followed by toasted tea cake and a cheese scone . Excellent

Fab little tea room and we stop here regularly on our cycle rides. Great selection of cakes, scones and puddings plus delicious savoury bites too. Really friendly staff and always welcome us with a big smile. Highly recommend.

Have loved visiting here for lunch for some years. Today was disappointing as not much savoury choice. A great place for delicious cakes and puddings, but we came away and bought a sandwich elsewhere as our soup didn’t satisfy us enough. Very friendly as always, but will avoid visiting when we are hungry. We feel the cyclists may be disappointed going all the way out there to find no bacon and egg butties!

After frequenting this place regularly, was very disappointed they've significantly reduced the menu, this season, due to a staff member retiring 🤔. When I say significantly, I really mean this. Soup in a mug! homemade sausage roll! and quiche as a lunch menu.. Not quiche and salad... just a piece of quiche and tiny tub of relish. Quite honestly.. I'm baffled!! It used to be a fab place for a lite lunch. After asking, the breakfast menu has been eliminated too. Sorry, but I won't be going again..sadly. Beautiful views and the staff very pleasant..that was the only positive today.

Wonderful tea room. Family friendly lovely good wholesome homemade food. Nothing fancy. Just great. We visit regularly to try and train our son to get used to eating out (3yr old) great place for this.

Excellent service and quality of food. Great section of cakes and treats. Lovely and warm in the conservatory and great views over the fishery

I am absolutely disgusted at the way in which we were treated here this morning - my partner and I came for breakfast and had food and drinks. As we have a motorhome and there were pitches available we spoke to a gentleman who told us to have a quick look around, which we did. We were then confronted by screaming across the whole park and cafe, by a woman (later found out to be the owner) telling us we had no right to look around, amongst other things. My partner and I were totally shocked, firstly because we were told we could look around and secondly by the totally unprovoked, extremely aggressive behaviour. I did go and approach the lady privately to explain that the man had said we could look around. We were then met by another round of verbal abuse about 'how dare we look around her park'. I do not believe any other human has the right to make anyone feel the way we were made to feel on this morning. All I can say is thank god this happened before we booked a pitch as I can not imagine a stay here would be pleasant - even one of the other people staying here appeared embarrassed by her behaviour. I would suggest anybody avoid staying here, as the treatment received felt embarrassing and degrading.

Sunday lunch time . Tables and chairs were set out on the grass , plenty of spaces . Orders were taken from the menu at an awning at the entrance , table service . Food :- a range of fresh sandwiches and prepared , wrapped cakes . Well organised and pleasant . There is also a plant nursery which has been expanded since our last visit . It is worth a look

Despite Covid this is ideal to meet friends and sit outside and eat 'take away'. All food is fresh and the owners go the extra mile to make you welcome. Good choice of menu, quiche is wonderful. Small garden centre as well adds to visit.

We stopped off to grab a quick tea and sand which service very good and COVID safe. Nice bacon and sausage and was pleasantly able to sit outside. Only draw back is if going north there is a diversion on the motorway sending you back the way you came!

A very convenient breakfast stop on our long trip up the M6. Simple menu, drinks, sandwiches and cakes but all good with a very friendly staff. Outside, covered and indoors seating available with good COVID arrangements.

Been here many times over the years. We know the family and staff and always made to feel welcome. Standard menu with locally resourced produce. Great selection of homemade cakes and puddings. We have recommended them to lots of family and friends over time.

Linked to a lovely little plant nursery this is a good spot for homemade cake, puds and probably more. Very friendly and well run and you can also buy fresh free range eggs.

If you are after basic but good home cooking and cakes this is the place. Good prices and portions, well worth a visit.

Super friendly service, and well priced food which is well presented.Extremely clean and comfortable with views overlooking Farleton Knott and the Lancaster Canal.Great for families and an ideal stop off for travelers on the M6, being only a mile off J36. ( South Lakes).Also NB this place is open when the local competition at the J36 Auction Mart is closed.

Fantastic food. Warm friendly staff. Brilliant banter. Outdoor space to eat and sit and completely dog friendly. Has lovely touring pitch site and fishery. Well worth stay and visit. Food brilliant. Will be going again

Food always fresh and good quality. Friendly service , over looking lake. Caravan site included with fishing. Small cafe open certain days. Small garden centre attached. Well worth stopping

We have just returned from a weekend at Farletonview caravan site, fishery, nursery and tearoom.The site has stunning views over the fishing lake and Farleton knot, this a lovely family run site, who are very friendly and make you very welcome.We where visiting family and they all came to the site and we ate in the tearooms, the food is homemade and gorgeous. From homemade soups, quiche, toasties or jackets, their bacon and egg butties are second to none and they were my husband words and he is a tradesman so is very experienced in this area.We will definitely be returning and would recommend to anybody, whether they are a tourer, fisherman or just visiting the area and want something good to eat.Hope to be back soon.

Lucky to go on a beautiful day so Sat outside to eat. Very popular place and very busy. Simple home cooked food. Loved the little plant nursery too.

Revisited this great tearoom, had the soup but so full could not eat anything else but took home a lovely scone and apricot and butterscotch cake which was amazing. Love this little place with family staff and homebaking at a very reasonable price

Esta fue nuestra segunda visita, no me decepcionó. Llamamos a media tarde para tomar café y pasteles. Buen café y deliciosa tartas caseras. Hay asientos en el interior, en un invernadero o en el aire fresco. El servicio es agradable por gente agradable. Creo que sus precios no son altos.La cafetería se encuentra en una zona tranquila, apartada en una granja con un sitio web de caravan y la pesca, pero vale la pena encontrar. Mirar en google maps, está cerca de bifurcación 36, M6

Un sabroso queso y tomate 2,40 el encantador Café, cerca de la pesca Farelton Crooklands en Cumbria. Afuera, en el glorioso sol, con vistas al campo, la deliciosa comida casera sencilla es agradable y las bebidas calientes se sirven en la preciosa vajilla Denby! La esponja con crema de albaricoque cálido es celestial! Al lado de la cafetería, es un pequeño vivero de plantas, un tipo servicial, vendiendo plantas perennes y anuales inusual así como cestas colgantes hechos a la orden. . . . . . . . . . . Bien merece una visita!

Tenemos pasó por el carril que conduce a este establecimiento de veces pero cientos la semana pasada decidimos visitar. Lo que esta fue una experiencia encantadora, primero fuimos al vivero de plantas y nos sorprendió por la calidad de las plantas y la relación calidad-precio. Luego fuimos a la tetería que entorno encantador para tomar un bocadillo casero y taza de té.

Finalmente llegué a visitar hoy aquí después de oír cosas buenas de él. . . . . . Me encantaría volver una y otra vez! Sencillo, la comida recién preparada y más tortas increíbles. . . . . . ¡Nunca! ! ! ! ! Cubierta, áreas al aire libre y cubierto, así como un invernadero, así que satisface a todos el clima británico! Gran ventaja para mí. . . . . Se admiten perros en la zona de cubierta y exterior, siempre que permanezca en un plomo. Muy familiar y adecuado para los pobres en las piernas. Altamente recomendado!

Lovely small tearoom in a country location. Food is all home made. Hot and cold meals and delicious cakes!

Visitamos aquí recientemente después de que uno de nuestros muchos paseos y este realmente es un lugar que vale la pena encontrar aunque está un poco lejos de todo. Es recién preparados alimentos saludables que son excelentes farm y a un precio muy razonable. Hay mesas disponibles fuera con algunos de ellos de invernadero, lo cual es muy útil si usted tiene un perro y el clima es un poco rigurosas. El personal es muy amable, el servicio es razonablemente rápido y todo está impecablemente limpio. Hay incluso un centro pequeño jardín al lado de la cafetería, que tiene un stock de plantas bastante inusual para la venta. Estaremos encantados de recomendar este sitio

Desde 2015, nuestra crítica es abajo, pero después de haber visitado de nuevo en 2016 que sólo quiere decir que sigue siendo tan bueno para una tienda de café o almuerzo ligero parada de un viaje de M6.

Good farm produced food, I don't like the word cheap as it infers not good quality but very reasonable with excellent quality - a bit difficult to find but we'll worth the time definitely be back - had quiche and then cake (shared as I was full but greedy)

Servicio horrible nos hizo esperar 10 minutos mientras hablando con alguien sobre pesca, había tres empleados y uno de ellos era especialmente grosero cuando se convirtió en el lugar ocupado a la hora del almuerzo. Estábamos a punto de salir y no había necesidad de ser groseros

We have been visiting Farleton Tearoom several years, have sampled many of the menu choices and can honestly say that everything has been delicious. All dishes are freshly cooked or prepared to order and the variety of cakes, puddings and tray bakes, all homemade, is second to none! There is a relaxed atmosphere in the tearoom where there is seating inside, in the conservatory or you may choose to dine Alfresco on the patio. We always look forward to our visit where we know we will receive a warm welcome and a delicious meal thanks to the Robinson Family.

We had a lovely two night stay. The staff couldn’t have been more helpful or friendly. We had breakfast both mornings, wonderful bacon and egg buns. The site was very quiet, clean and in walking distance to the county show. We will definitely stay here again.

This is a small tearoom close to [2 minutes away from] Junction 36 on the M6 motorway near Kendal. It is a little tricky to find (directions at the end of this review) but very well worth the trouble.It is a small family run tea room that also serves delicious home made lunches between 12.00 and 14.00. No burgers or other junk food - just real dishes, freshly made and served with lovely salad. The tearoom, with lots of wonderful cakes, stays open until 16.00.It great peaceful stop on a long M6 journey with a chance to wander over to talk to the hens and lambs, see the lake, and generally chill out before tackling the motorway with all the thundering heavy lorries again.There is also another favourite place of ours about a mile along the lane called Woodlands Nursery where you'll find great plants for your garden, but that's another story!Now the directions ........ From Junction 36 on the M6, take the A65 eastwards [towards Kirkby Lonsdale] until the first roundabout, then A6070 towards Holme. After the Auction Market (around 500m from the roundabout) turn left and continue over the M6. Farletonview is a few hundred metres later on the left hand side. It's only 2-3 minutes from the M6.
