Company information

Andrew is the owner of Willowbeck Lodge. He's been running the business since 2013. He grew up in the area so he has first hand knowledge of what the region has to offer. He's a pretty hands-on guy, so you'll likely be met by him when you arrive, be served by him in the restaurant or he'll be making your breakfast in the morning. When he's not at Willowbeck, he loves spending time with his wife and young family. He's a keen cyclist so he has lot of routes to share to those looking to explore the area on two wheels.
