Title
The Orange Tree Hotel, Hotel Accommodation, Kirkby Lonsdale, Cumbria, UK
Description
When Richard purchased The Fleece Inn, a pub just off Market Street, near St. Mary's Church, Kirkby Lonsdale, after being a landlord for more than fifteen years at another of the town's taverns, he and his family Stuart and Kate, plus a lot of local help, started the internal refurbishment (see pictures below). This naturally called for a new name to go with its new image as a comfortable hostelry, boasting six new en-suite bedrooms all with up to date facilities, a new bar and lounge areas.
Being a lover of Rugby Union which Richard adopted as a theme for his new venture, when he visits Twickenham for the England matches his favourite watering hole before the match is called, yes, you've guessed it - The Orange Tree. There is no doubt
of his love for the game from the full sized rugby ball in the position of being penalty kicked above the front door, to the many sporting prints which adorn the lounge walls. Of course there is more to The Orange Tree than a place of homage to rugby, for, this is one of the best eating and drinking places in Kirkby Lonsdale.
