The Lowther Arms is a traditional country pub in the heart of Mawbray village, close to the sea on the Solway Plain in north-west Cumbria.Β Set in peaceful countryside and Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty within Hadrian’s Wall World Heritage Site Buffer Zone, we are surrounded by stunning views of the Lakes and Scotland.

Although tenanted, The Lowther Arms is a cooperative and community-owned pub, saved from permanent closure and conversion to a house by the local community and over 300 shareholders.

After being closed for two and a half years, the pub re-opened in June 2021, and is now more than a pub – offering a comfortable place to have a drink, enjoy a meal, meet with friends, or simply a quiet corner to read in. Whether you are a local, a visitor, walker, or cyclist, come and relax in our lovely pub with its beer garden and stunning views of the Lake District.

Our 4-pitch caravan site is open and booking is highly advisable.Β  We have 3 pitches for tourers and motorhomes, a Pod, plus camping.

Well-behaved dogs are welcome in the bar, conservatory and beer garden.

We look forward to seeing you!

Firstly we would like to apologise to our guests this evening, we had a very busy day all round and did not anticipate the level of food ordered, we are both frustrated and saddened a few of our customers couldn't dine with us. This is a massive learning curve for us both and a lesson we will learn from to prevent this happening in the future.

Sunday 22nd March bookings are being honored we cannot take anymore but we will be serving sunday roasts, ham, beef and veggie option only and the same for the children.

Again we can only apologise and thank you for your patience
