The charming old village of Tebay sits near the eastern fringe of the Lake District National Park. The village itself winds its way along the edge of the main thoroughfare and the traditionally whitewashed Cross Keys Inn has been there for 500 years or more. The inn is reputedly haunted by the ghost of the Tebay Witch, Mary Baynes. Along with its better-known neighbours of Kendal, Sedbergh and Appleby-in-Westmorland, the area is surrounded by lovely rolling countryside and beautiful scenery. Nearby Orton has a local pub, serving good food, a Post Office/shop, tearooms and the famous handmade chocolate shop and tearoom. A lovely village green surrounded by 17th and 18th Century cottages adds to its charm and there is a farmers' market in the village square on the second Saturday of every month. Take a short drive and discover the unspoilt lake of Haweswater, or take advantage of the excellent road links to the Lake District, the Eden Valley and the Yorkshire Dales.

A truly unusual holiday experience! A wonderfully cosy wing of a former Westmorland police station, offering ex-cell-ent accommodation, in the small village of Tebay, 13 miles from Kendal. This single storey Tebay cottage features a lovely living room with dining area and a warm, welcoming open fire, and a first-class galley kitchen in one of the former cell areas. Move further into the 'cells', and you will truly step back in time - one of the original cells is still set out in Victorian style, complete with steel door, stone floor, solid wooden bed, chamber pot and bars at the high window. Alongside this, transporting you to present day, is the quality and comfort of the final cell, with its sumptuous colonial bed and en-suite wetroom. Outside this Tebay cottage, there is a small patio area with views over the surrounding hills. There is excellent mountain biking and fell walking from the doorstep and Wainwright's Coast to Coast Walk runs close to the village. The perfect Tebay cottage for a romantic Lakeland holiday.

We had a wonderful time at the Jailbreak. Welcome was great, couldn't recommend highly enough.

The landlady was very friendly and helpful. The accommodation was spotless and we had everything we could have needed. We would definitely stay again if we were coming to the area again.
