A quick drive down the M6 for a cut that's worth the trip
Carlisle is Cumbria's county city, and while there's no shortage of barbers up that way, we've built a loyal following of lads who make the drive down to us on Skirsgill Lane, Penrith. About 22 miles and roughly 30 minutes on the M6, it's a straightforward run south to Junction 40. Once you're off the motorway, we're barely a minute away.
We think that says something about the standard of work we put out. Andrew and Isaac between them have years of experience, and whether you're after a sharp skinfade, a classic scissor cut, or a beard trim that actually looks intentional, you'll leave the chair looking right. Our 97 Google reviews at a 4.8-star average aren't an accident. They come from doing the basics properly, every single time.
A lot of our Carlisle regulars tell us they tried a few places locally before finding us, and now they wouldn't go anywhere else. The drive is easy, there's free parking right outside the shop, and you can book your slot online so there's no waiting around. Some lads combine it with a stop at the Rheged Centre or a walk around Penrith while they're down this way.
If you've been putting up with average haircuts in town, give us a try. One visit is usually all it takes.
Head south on the M6 from Carlisle. It's a clear run down the motorway, about 22 miles. Exit at Junction 40 and follow the signs for the A66. Within a minute you'll reach Skirsgill Lane. Our shop is on Skirsgill Lane with free parking right outside. The whole journey takes around 30 minutes. We'd recommend booking online through our Setmore page so your slot is reserved and you're not hanging around. Plenty of our Carlisle customers book a regular time and make it part of their routine.
