A quick 12-minute drive along the A66 to your barber on Skirsgill Lane, Penrith
Temple Sowerby sits in a lovely spot on the old A66 between Penrith and Appleby, with Acorn Bank Garden just up the lane and the Eden flowing through the valley below. It's the kind of village where life moves at a nice pace, but finding services close by — barbers included — means a drive in one direction or the other. The good news is that BB's Barbers on Skirsgill Lane, Penrith is only about 7 miles and 12 minutes to the west, making us your nearest proper barbershop.
Andrew and Isaac between them offer the full range of men's barbering. From a smart scissor cut or a classic short back and sides to precision skinfades, taper fades, textured crops, and proper beard shaping — we do it all, and we do it well. The atmosphere in the shop is relaxed and friendly, the kind of place where you can have a decent chat without being rushed through. That matters, because a good haircut takes the time it takes, and we'd rather get it right than get you out the door.
