Historic 17th-century coaching inn on the edge of the Forest of Bowland
Accommodation
The Priory offers boutique rooms and self-catering apartments set within a building that dates back to 1650. Each room includes a modern private bathroom with free toiletries, a flat-screen TV, and tea and coffee-making facilities. Guest reviews highlight the comfortable beds, spacious apartments with kitchenettes, and the quiet village location.
Dining
The on-site café is open daily from 10am to 4pm and serves hearty breakfasts, lunches, and cakes made with fresh, locally sourced ingredients. Guests can enjoy meals by the log fire in winter or in the pretty outdoor dining area surrounded by stone buildings. Evening meals are not available, but the hotel can provide a pre-ordered ploughman's platter or drinks in the room for guests who prefer not to dine out.
Location & Activities
The Priory sits in the centre of Scorton, on the edge of the Forest of Bowland, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Walking and cycling routes start directly from the hotel, and secure cycle storage and a clothes drying room are available for guests. The M6 motorway is a 15-minute drive away, Lancaster is 20 minutes away, and Blackpool and the Lake District are within easy reach.
Pet-Friendly
The hotel welcomes dogs with no extra charges, and guest reviews note that staff make a big fuss of four-legged visitors. Pets are allowed in the rooms and the café dining area during breakfast. The location provides direct access to countryside walks ideal for dog owners.
Additional Amenities
Free Wi-Fi is available throughout the property, and free parking is provided on-site. A village shop and a gift shop are located across the road. The Priory also offers a coffee van outside for hot drinks to take away.
