Our car park, which is at the rear of the house, can take up to 9 cars, so not short of space for your motorcycles! If you arrive damp we have a drying room for your clothes.
Paul Lamb and the team at Norcroft Guest House, Penrith extends a warm invitation for you to come and stay with us. Built in the 1860s as the school master's house for the Girls National School, the house was expanded some 20 years later. In the 1920s it was converted into 4 flats and in the late 50s the house was split into the two houses (yes, we are a semi) that you now see. The Norcroft has been run as a guest house for 25–30 years.
We offer a high standard of accomodation, all en-suite, in which to unwind after your journey.
Our car park, which is at the rear of the house, can take up to 9 cars, so plenty of room for safe, off-street motorcycle parking,
Enjoy a relaxing drink in our lounge, before a short walk into Penrith itself to enjoy the excellent range of pubs and restaurants you will find there.
