A big thank you to everyone for supporting us, making our venture so successful, and keeping our village pub alive

Visit the Pub Website HERE

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. 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.  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!

This morning was interesting. Little Tom wanted to surprise Ben with some wonderful colourful Christmas lights and tinsel! He managed to rope Maddie into helping (hence the guilty look on her face)!
Sadly Ben is not the biggest fan of tinsel OR coloured lights so it hasn’t gone down too well!
Little Tom and Maddie seem to be quite good friends now so who knows what they’ll get up to next! 🤦

***CUSTOMER NOTICE***
We will be closed this evening (Saturday) from 4pm due to the storm.
We want to make sure our staff can get home safely this afternoon and ensure our customers remain safe.
The forecast is for more wind into the night so we have taken this decision for safety.
Thank you for your understanding.
Lowther Arms team!

So sad we won’t get to come and stay tonight but safety is the number one priority and it’s wonderful that you’re looking after your staff so well. Looking forward to coming in a couple of weeks instead xxx

Had a lovely meal today. Glad we got there early. Thanks to all the team for making it a great afternoon. 👍👍

We popped along to the POD this morning to make sure it was ready for our guests tonight as it’s a special birthday treat for them and we found this…
Little Tom clearly wanted to get the party started early! Bad Little Tom! Now we have to clean it all up for their arrival!

Loving Little Tom's antics! ♥️

As we end the first week of our festive menu, the feedback has been outstanding.
We still have some availability left for the last week 18th-21st December but be quick as tables and pre orders need to be with us by next week.
Here’s some of the examples of what our customers have been enjoying.

So today Little Tom decided he wanted to help clean!! We use the word “help” very loosely but he’s trying!
Kay was not so impressed with his work and he will NOT be helping in future!
Silly Tom!
