The Kings Arms is a large historic grade II listed three storey pub nestled in the heart of the scenic market town of Kirkby Lonsdale in Cumbria. The town attracts many tourists from far and wide due to its unspoilt nature, high quality independent shops, historic charm and its fantastic restaurants, cafes and bars. Its close proximity to the Yorkshire Dales, Forest of Bowland, Lake District in the respective counties of North Yorkshire, Lancashire and Cumbria make Kirkby Lonsdale an ideal and idyllic place to stay. The Kings Arms provides three charming cottages for tourists to base their travels from and are located behind the Kings Arms, which is in an enviable position on the bustling high street. The building itself dates from the middle of the 16th century but was trading as an inn from the early 17th century onwards. The pub retains many of the original features including a huge ‘inlgenook’ fireplace which is reportedly the largest working example in Cumbria. Kirkby Lonsdale is easily accessible by car, with the A65 running through the town. Regular bus services run through the town connecting with the nearest train station, Oxenholme Lake District.
Pub Layout
Upon entering off Kirkby Lonsdale’s historic high street customers are welcomed in to an open plan bar and dining area. The pub oozes historic charm yet the trade area brings a contemporary modern twist tastefully blended with its original features. The gorgeous well stocked bar runs to the left-hand side opposite that opulent original fireplace. The stylish décor is incredibly welcoming and relaxing, and the mash-up between traditional and modern flows through to the food offer as well. The pub benefits from a delightfully decorated high-ceilinged upstairs room which is a designated sports room adorned with TV's showing televised sporting events. Three cottages to the rear of the pub are fully booked by tourists over the summer months and these are elegantly decorated and furnished to a high standard. Also to the rear is an enclosed courtyard area, a beautiful place to sit and enjoy a refreshing drink.
The private accommodation, located on the first floor consists of three bedrooms, a living room, a good sized kitchen and bathroom all in good condition.

Admiral Taverns are ideally looking for a licensee who is passionate about providing a top-quality food offer; alongside excellent drinks service with consistent quality and service. A warm and friendly welcome must await those customers who pass over the threshold and must leave desperate to visit again. The Kings Arms is all about quality of offer so a great knowledge of drinks and how to serve them is essential. Cocktails, ice cold gin & tonics, great tasting beers all perfectly served is key here. The ability to market the three letting rooms through booking websites and social media along with extending the use of the function room can bring in additional income. Particularly during the summer this is a busy and bustling pub so anyone who takes over the Kings Arms needs to be confident, hardworking, and able to provide fantastic service all day every day.
