New Ing Lodge, Shap, Cumbria, Lake District

Based in Shap in the Eden Valley, on the edge of the Lake District National Park, the Howgills and the Pennine Fells, New Ing Lodge offers comfort at an affordable price. Available with exclusive use.

New Ing Lodge is ideal for large groups of people interested in walking, cycling, outdoor activities or simply a group of people that are looking for a peaceful retreat. The Lodge can accommodate parties of up to 30 people and welcome school trips, family and friend gatherings. We are a family run, fun and lively accommodation situated directly on Wainwright's Coast to Coast.

The Lodge has 9 bedrooms, 7 of which are doubles, twins or family rooms, made up with crisp white linens. The other 2 are bunk rooms with 6 and 8 bunk beds respectively.

We have installed a bar so that you can pull your own pints and act the landlord behind your own bar for your stay! The bar also opens up more seating space for another 10-15 people.

There is plenty of space with an acre of recently levelled well kept field to the rear of the property (excellent for a barbecue), which also doubles as extra camping space if required. There is also a walled orchard to the front which is not accessible from the road. There are also chickens roaming in the rear field.

We have been steadily improving New Ing Lodge, including the installation of a Biomass boiler (helping to deliver plenty of hot water fast) and have recently won some awards for our hard work including the Above & Beyond Award for Responsible Tourism and a Gold Award from British Green Tourism.

Nearby to Ullswater, High Street, Askham Fell, as well as the less-visited Howgill Fells and the west Pennines. It is a short 15 minute drive to Penrith, and 25 minutes to Kendal. Other areas of the National Park are accessible within a short drive also.

The Wainwright Coast to Coast walk passes directly past the Lodge. The Cumbrian Way, the Westmoreland Way and the Lakeland Round are only a couple of hundred metres away.
