Things to do in Lake District, England: The Best Movie Theaters

November 29, 2021 Margarita Chappel

Cumbria's valleys and fells (as the low mountains are known) are home to idyllic villages, high moorlands and picturesque lakes. Literary buffs will enjoy Wordsworth's Dove Cottage (go in March to see daffodils), and if you've got kids in tow, visit The World of Beatrix Potter. Or just enjoy a leisurely drive through beautiful scenery.

Alhambra Cinema

The Alhambra screens current films daily in a 105-year old heritage auditorium with magnificent digital quality. The best of the World's theatre, ballet and opera are relayed live by satellite several times a month.

Thank you for an experience from the past. A lovely old fashioned single screen cinema. Very friendly with complimentary tea and coffee before the film. Excellent value compared to some of the modern multi screen cinemas these days. Always love going to the Alhambra.

We went to the movies and saw Yesterday. This is our second time at this theater. We were here 10 years ago. Great movie house. Nothing changes - the same today as probably 80 years ago! Lovely place to catch a first run movie! Very friendly staff!

Three screen cinema with film savvy staff ... great for families and popular films but equally good for lesser known interesting thoughtful films. Alhambra is very much part of the arts and entertainment offer in Penrith and provides both popular and intellectual films. I’ve watched films as interesting as the Mummy in 3D, Notting Hill ( 20th anniversary), Casablanca theme night, the last witness with Q&A, Yuli , the Carlos Acosta story, Jellyfish, Dirty Dancing, Fantastic Beasts in 3D, For Sama, The Two Popes, the Irishman, ROH Manon Lescaut, and many many more... Alhambra is small in size but massive in its cultural offer... come and “see”! Enjoy the experience of a small screen or the larger big screens!

It was like stepping back in time with the retro cinema, popcorn and icecream! We all went to see Mamamia and sat upstairs in the old fashioned cinema and the whole family loved the experience. The staff were so friendly and we got free parking so a perfect night!

Great to be able to combine a cinema visit with an excellent meal and vegeterian at that! Very comfy seats in the cinema and the food absolutely excellent. COVID precautions very very good indeed.
