Floor Plan
The layout of the house so you can see which bedrooms are on which floor and where we live in relation to the studio. As you can see, our apartment is next to the studio, which is why we ask for it not to be used as a party room, or play room. Also why we ask for your retreat schedules in advance of your stay, so we can plan our time, meetings etc so we are not doing any noisy activities during your times because you can hear through the doors.

Food & Drink
Catering
St Marks Stays is a self-catering kitchen
There is a fridge freezer (standard kitchen size and hence the freezer is not that big.) and a smaller under the counter fridge. There is cupboard space for your other shopping. The kitchen has an Aga, a gas hob and a double electric oven. We have most pans, crockery and kitchen equipment for group cooking.
We provide store room basics for you such as salt, pepper, tin foil, oil etc for your cooking. Free tea, coffee & sugar is included as part of your stay.
There is a small Spar in Sedbergh, butcher and greengrocer and the nearest larger supermarkets are in Kendal. We can happily be here to take in a food delivery for you in advance of your stay if you organise the time slot with us. Asda, Tesco, Morrisons and Sainsbury’s deliver to St Marks Stays. We just ask that you tick to say no plastic bags, because we get left with them and would rather not have more plastic waste.
Local cafes, restaurants and pubs
Sedbergh is 3 miles away so a 5 mins drive, or 1.5 hr walk. We can send you a pdf for cafes, pubs and restaurants in the area and further afield.
Chefs & Caterers
If you would prefer to eat in, or are a retreat, we have a list of chefs and caterers we can send on, many of whom have catered here.
