18 minutes up the M6 from Tebay junction to a quality cut on Skirsgill Lane, Penrith
Tebay might be famous for its motorway services — arguably the best in Britain — but when it comes to finding a good barber locally, the village itself doesn't have much to offer. That's where the M6 comes in handy for more than just passing through. Jump on at Junction 38, head north for about 15 miles, and you're at BB's Barbers on Skirsgill Lane, Penrith. The whole thing takes around 18 minutes, mostly motorway, so it's a painless trip even on a busy day.
Once you're in the chair, Andrew or Isaac will sort you out with whatever you need. We do everything from traditional scissor cuts and classic short back and sides through to modern skinfades, mid fades, taper fades, textured crops, and full beard shaping. Both barbers have built their skills over years, and they genuinely care about getting the finish right. That's not something you always find, and it's the main reason our regulars keep coming back from villages across the Eden Valley.
Living out in Tebay means you're used to travelling a bit for most things, and a 15-mile drive for a barber who actually delivers is time well spent. You'll find free parking right outside the shop, no appointment stress if you book ahead online, and a friendly welcome every time. We've earned our 4.8-star Google rating one customer at a time, and we'd love to add Tebay to the list of villages we look after. Book online or call us on 01768 866472.
Head to M6 Junction 38 from Tebay village and join the motorway northbound. Come off at Junction 40 (Penrith), take the A66 briefly east, then the A6 south towards Skirsgill Lane. Turn left onto Skirsgill Lane and the shop is on your right. The drive is about 15 miles and takes roughly 18 minutes. Free parking is directly outside the door. We'd recommend booking online through our Setmore page to secure your slot, though walk-ins are always welcome if we're free.
