A run-down Grade 2 listed inn in the Crake Valley, the Farmer’s Arms was given a new lease of life as a community arts venue. Taken over by Grizedale Arts in 2021, it now offers a bar, restaurant and café as well as a shop and workshop for crafts.
Before refurbishing Grizedale Arts conducted an energy audit arranged through Cumbria Action for Sustainability, that lead to them undertaking a range of actions to minimize the carbon emissions associated with the site and to control costs.
Continuously and carefully refurbishing the interior of the listed inn… we source and adapt vintage furnishings for use in the public and staff spaces, using skilled craftspeople and simple, natural materials.” Farmer’s Arms
